A nice change from synthetics

By Walter Wilson Ranked #722 - Men's Shirts November 29, 2008

I've been commuting by bike, and decided to add some wool base layers to my cycling wardrobe. I've not been cold since I started wearing wool on the colder mornings. In fact, my cycling jacket has taken a rest, and I've gone back to a vest. The wool simply keeps me warm, and since it breathes so much better, I don't get wet from sweating and I can ride with fewer layers. And the zipper on this style allows me to better control the temperature during harder workouts. I have both the lightweight and the midweight versions, and both are great, but I like the midweight a little better on the colder mornings (35 degF and below).

BTW, the fit is not loose and not tight. I might consider ordering a smaller size next time, as I like a snug fit.
