The North Face Apex Zip Shirt Jacket - Men's
It isn't my Ultrawick

I have looked all over to find a product that worked as well as my old Ultrawick pullover. This seemed to meet the requirement, but not quite. The one complaint I have is that, in cool weather, the material is cold to your skin. A light fleece liner would fix it, but now I need two pullovers. It is better at handling the wet than my good ole Ultrawick, but it is not as warm. Generally I like it, but will need to buy something to line it. As a base layer? Who ever said that should spend some time outside.
