I bought this product to put under the Marmot Super Hero Jacket for snowshoeing. I'm 5'9" weigh 175 and wear a 41" suit jacket. The medium fits me great. I like the high ne…

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…

I have multiple capilene half zips that wear to work as well hiking. There's lot of different weights of capilene, so check out a couple versions. I like the lighter capilen…

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 have read the reviews of Patagonia base-layers and saw the great price on Moosejaw so I thought I would give it a shot. I did not realize how ridiculous I had been waiting…

I am a big fan of Cap 3s as my go to base layer in cold conditions. Also great just around the house on its own during winter. I normally wear XL (6'1"/200lbs) but this one…

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…

my upper body is a little wide, so a lot of shirts I get feel restrictive around the armpits, especially if I raise my arms directly in front me me, chest level. But this shi…

when you first look at this shirt it is surprising because you can see through it (unlike the capilene 3 shirt) which made me wonder how it could possibly be warmer than that…

I got a cap 4 today after much research for a lightweight super soft very warm base-layer, throw a shell over this and go anywhere.…

I love this shirt and the graphics, it is the lighter Capilene so it breathes even better but the fricken collar is fixed so it doesn't stretch at all, what the crap were they…

I run in this shirt all the time. It breathes well and is the perfect summer shirt for those 100+ days in the Texas summer. I highly recommend this shirt to anyone who lives i…

The shirt is extremely light weight, feels great to wear, and I've found that it keeps me warm on some pretty cold (15 F) early morning walks. I bought it in xl since it said…

I'm a bigger dude, but this shirt is pretty tight. Large in Arc'teryx is my normal size and I almost wish I got an XL this time. The neck is not constricting though - so I am…

I've had Arc'Teryx wool, Icebreaker, Smartwool, and a handful of the other 'big names' and hands down Arc'Teryx makes the best wool. It's the strongest, lasts the longest, loo…

It was hard to believe while I was wearing this shirt that a fabric that you can see through can be wind resistant and as warm as it was. I was out running in the mid 50's an…

I bought shirt for running and it's kept me warm down to about 35 degrees. I get cold easy, so your mileage may vary. I run 30-35 miles a week mostly on the pavement. This is…

I love merino wool, and this has all the great advantages that merino offers, in a nice winter-base-layer weight top. Maybe it's just me not matching the proportions of the la…

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…

Warm and comfortable, not an itch anywhere. They have an odd quality in that they are toasty in a cool room and out in the icy world. Very well stitched too - long underwear…
