Ultra light. Ultra thin.

By Scott Smith Ranked #466 - Men's Performance Shirts - Short Sleeve July 31, 2010

So I've got 3 of these shirts now...they weigh like 4 oz. each. That by itself is great. They are ultra-comfortable because you hardly feel the thin material against your skin. The downside as someone has suggested is that they are not rock solid durable...you pretty much have to know that when you're going to wear a t-shirt that is THIS lightweight, it ain't canvas...it's not going to look perfect when you use it backpacking. The wilderness is hard on any gear over time. Personally, I don't want to buy gear to just look at it or walk around the mall with it, so I expect it's gonna get threads pulled and some signs of wear. There is a reason I have 3 of these shirts. I'm a big guy, sweat a lot and these are super in my opinion. Due to the fact that these shirts will begin to smell much more quickly than merino wood (icebreaker etc) I couldn't give them 5 stars.
