I've been using this as my main baselayer. My normal set-up is this Cap 2, then an Arcteryx Strato jacket then a shell. This is for skiing and riding and snowshoeing in temps…

I wear this piece every week for all sorts of activities: hiking, running, biking, standing around (under other layers) and even sleeping in sometimes! It's very soft and com…

I wear my Capilene 2's everywhere! Both the tops and bottoms! They are the near perfect base layer. The only gripe I have against them is the infamous synthetic stink, but thi…

This certainly is one of the best! I brought my cap 3 zip neck with me on the JMT as my baselayer! It was great. It kept me warm and was still very breathable. I really ha…

This long sleeve can serve many purposes. It makes a good base layer or a nice mid layer during summer nights. Material is very soft and breathable but also provides some insu…

the cap 1 is a substantial part of successful layering while out in the wilderness, its lightweight and versatility make for a pleasant hike virtually anywhere. Sweating is in…

This is probably the most comfortable synthetic I've used. It is soft, durable, wicks and insulates well. The only downside that I can think of is that it has a tint of smel…

Soft and smooth hand, nice form-fitting cut but not too tight; runs true to size (5'8" muscular 190, med fits good). The "silk weight" refers to the lightness of the cloth, an…

I love my capilene zip Neck. In winter I wear them when running in temperatures 40 and below. I like being able to zip it down to release heat as I warm up when I run.…

Like this a lot. It's warm and cozy but super lightweight (um, the perfect baselayer?!). I agree with the reviewer that thinks it's a bit looser-fitting than other Patagonia…

Don't get me wrong I love this jacket, I just don't know if it's worth the price. It's not as thick as other similar polar tech gear I own but is still very comfy. I love th…

This shirt rocks. I have it in short sleeve, long sleeve and zip neck. It's a great, lightweight layer that keeps you surprisingly warm for the weight. But it will also let in…

My mom bought this for me to wear at the barn during winter. It's fantastic. I love that the neck zips and it keeps me so warm that I can usually go without a winter coat, jus…
