Can you tell I love this top? This is a fantastic snowsports midlayer that also works well on its own. I usually wear this on top of the midweight crewneck and it's enough to keep me toasty and dry under my triclimate ski jacket, even on the coldest, windiest days at Vail and Breck. The princess seams are slimming and accent the female form, and this top is stylish enough to wear in town. It really wicks away moisture, and truly does not ever stink, even after a week of skiing in it every day. My only beef is with the pilling. It pills terribly after several washes. Don't be overzealous with the shaver. I've destroyed 2 smartwools because I unwittingly shaved them too thin and holes appeared after the next wash. I own 6 of these tops and will never wear anything else for cold weather sports.

Okay, I've changed my mind. It's not too "space cadety"! The medium made me look like a Buck Rogers throwback, even when belted. I tried the small, however, and had a completely different experience! It fits me like a glove and looks very "smart." I'm suprised that it made such a difference. I normally wear a small in TNF, so I suggest you order your normal size to ensure you get the intended fit. It is difficult to put on and take off, though, due to the narrowness of the shoulders. The inside of the sleeves also stick to all but the silkiest long-sleeved shirts. Otherwise, it's pretty cool, and is a good midlayer or outerlayer for 45-degree days.

In person, it was too space cadety for me. The location of the shoulder seam also visually narrows the shoulders, which I don't like. As for warmth, I am warmer in my medium weight cashmere sweater. The fleece on the arms is very, very thin. It reminds me of the quality of fleece sold at Target. Regarding fit, if you are in between sizes, you may want to order up. This does have a very slim fit. It fits well under regular outerwear jackets.
