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.…

If I could own enough pairs of these to wear from November to March and only do laundry once a week, I would be elated. First, they fit well. While they fit snugly, they are…

The Patagonia Capilene 3 collection is the best base layer I have seen. I spent the summer working outdoors and backpacking and this was my go-to layer for nighttime and durin…

I wear my baselayers both for work and play, and these Capilene shirts are perfect for my needs. I'm cold natured, and wear them at work in 60-64 degree temps (sedentary acti…

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…

I bought one in acai for jogging. I now have 5 of them in a variety of colors. They are great also for everyday wear under a T-shirt. They are long in the torso so they ca…

capilene 2 is the best all around baselayer, light but about to contain some warmth. i like to layer these with drifits sometimes, especially if the capilene is a light see-t…

i am a huge patagonia fan, but there have been a few misses that i have purchased from them...this is definitely one of them. The cap 1 fabric is nice, but the cut is not fem…

I own this top in nearly every color. It does fit snug. I like that as it is often an underlayer. Great dry wicking for exercise, great quick dry with no fading for swimmin…

This is a good baselayer. It feels good and soft against skin. and Capilene 1 is very thin polyester fabric. I recommend this shirt for hiking. But I like more Capliene…

I own this top in nearly every color. It does fit snug, but it is slippery so it goes great UNDER other tops. I like that b/c I often use it as an underlayer. Great dry wic…

I love the feel of this top, and it definitely keeps me toasty. I purchased a size larger than normal due to my normal size fitting very snug. It is also a little bit on the s…

Cons: The Baacode tag inside REALLY itches....tore it off. The fabric isn't quite as soft as other icebreaker tops but its still pretty soft (super soft for wool). Also, no th…

This tops wears great, holds shape and wraps you in soft warm merino wool which doesn't itch and looks great. I prefer Arcteryx merino products to Icebreaker because Icebreake…

This top is great for cold days skiing, hiking, walking the dogs, or whatever and a great single layer for cool fall or spring days spent outside. Drawbacks: It is 100% wool a…

This layer fits sweetly against my skin. There aren't thumb loops but it doesn't had an awkward fit down by the wrists (a problem I run up against a lot). It is soft, doesn'…

Form fitting base layer. Great fit. True to size…

I ordered 2 of these and while they're the usual Icebreaker quality (which is good), the shelf bra isn't going to give you enough support for anything other than your basic yo…

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 takes up very little space but is great for hiking on hot days. The fabric wicks and dries quickly. I also like to wear running or to the gym because the cut is fla…

I hike/backpack most weekends (8-15 miles), bike, ski and sweat a lot. I have tried many different "breathable/wicking" shirts and I would freeze when I would stop for lunch/…
