Patagonia Capilene Silkweight Crew - Men's

Great Summer Shirt

By Ranked #1014 - Men's Shirts May 30, 2005

I've been wearing light colored long sleeve underwear tops for a couple of years during much of my summer climbing, especially at higher altitudes. I've found that they are no warmer than wearing a short sleeve since they block the sun. They also protect the arms from abrasion.

The silk weight crew is tops for this purpose. Plus the pattern makes it look more like an outerwear shirt.
