Easily my favorite shirt. Crazy tough for a wool blend, perfectly stretchy and fairly inexpensive on sale. My closet is almost all this shirt at this point.

Do not buy if you're a heavy sweater

I bought this shirt for a marathon pretty late in my prep( about a week before the race) so the only experience I had was on shorter runs in cold climates. During the actual race, the shirt held so much sweat that it literally turned into a dress.While I do find it kinda funny that there are now pictures of me running a marathon in a sweaty shirtdress, I can not recommend the product to anyone.

My new favorite Merino T-Shirt!

I've been a huge fan of Merino Ts for many years. My old ones are starting to show their age so, a few months ago, I bought a couple of these. They fit and feel great, are surprisingly durable for a lightweight Merino T, and are easy to care for. Since my initial purchase, I bought four more! They're now my "go to" Ts for casual wear, the gym, and outdoor recreation.

Crazy light with just a bit of warmth, this is the perfect shirt for high output activity when there is a slight chill in the air. And it is very quick to dry.

Love it. My go-to running shirt

These aren't as soft to the touch as other wool shirts I own, they feel a little scratchy at first, which I was concerned about initially. After a minute of wearing it, it became my favorite shirt. I now own 3. SUPER light and airy. Very comfortable. Perhaps a little short in the torso, but that's a very minor issue.

Absolute garbage durability, sizing off

I haven't even worn this yet, just put it through the wash on hand wash cycle no spin. Threads have already pulled and i suspect this will be a massive hole after the first wear. Also runs way small. I'm 5'10 180 and the large is too small. I'm usually medium or large in most things. Don't waste your money

Disappointing quality for the price

I don't often review products, but felt compelled to review this one by the high price point and number of reviews that are inconsistent with my experience. Pros: - It's a nice looking shirt! The fit is on point (slim bit not too tight) and the black color is weaved with gray for an interesting depth. - Dries relatively quickly. Cons: - The biggest issue is the degree to which this shirt stretches when wet. By the end of a summer run, it's basically a dress, stretching probably four inches (granted, I do sweat quite a bit). it For a shirt billed towards high-output activity, this is a dealbreaker for me. - This shirt is surprisingly warm for how light it is. I have used it on three summer runs in temps starting around 60 degrees in the early morning, heating up to around 80 degrees by the end of the run. Each time I found myself overheating and wishing I had worn a Patagonia Capilene Cool shirt. Obviously this warmth-to-weight ratio could be a positive, depending on your anticipated use. - After one long run using a hydration vest, the shirt is pilling dramatically. I have used it while climbing and had no issues, so I think it would work well for less cardio-intensive activities or as a base layer (where the surprising warmth would be a benefit). But for running, there are much better options out there at lower price points.

The best run/outdoor/work shirt I own

This is an excellent running shirt, base layer, and even just a casual shirt to go around town in. It is quite breathable, lightweight, and retains little to no odor, making it perfect for going from morning trail runs, to the office. The fabric blend is super soft on the skin and stretches phenomenally, allowing it to move with your body. I consistently wear this shirt day in and day out, under down jackets, running shells and vests, and it performs phenomenally, retaining its shape despite the fabric's stretch. This is an outstanding base layer.

Super comfortable fabric, handles moisture very well. Bit of boxy cut.

Excellent Trail Running / Running Shirt

Lightest performance tee I own. Feels great during activity and I love the stretch. UPDATE: I have two of these t-shirts and, for whatever reason, the nickel (gray) color is noticeably shorter on me than the blue version. I'm 6'1 175lbs and have the Medium size in both. Just a fair warning. Still a great tech tee!
