Yummy and pretty
- Familiarity:

This is a little thicker than my thinner, finer gauged merino baselayers from other famous brands. All have lasted for years, indeed I'm wearing one now, though this past summer moths ate pinholes and larger in some, despite camphor in the closets! It's not those other brands' fault, and I keep them mended, too. But you can kind of see the mends and either wear them under other stuff or for gardening. So, this new baselayer from Smartwool is a delight! Yummy thickness, not too thick, and refreshingly clean and new. I don't need to hide it under stuff but I can if I want to on a cold day. Haven't washed it yet. Must try harder to fight moths this spring!

Did what I needed it to

I live in a warm weather area and travelled to ICELAND! I got this baselayer especially for the trip and it definitely came through for me (along with a few other layers)! Warm, soft, comfortable.

smartwool wins

love these - i've tried other baselayers but they get holey and stretch out and don't last - my smartwool shirts and heavier knits have lasted for years, happy to have a couple new ones - love the new purple too

Look no further for the perfect layer!
- Familiarity:
- I've put it through the wringer
I cannot say enough good things about this base layer, the quality of the wool truly shines through. I used to steer clear of wool until I realized it was low quality wool I needed to stay away from! I have used this base layer this whole 23-24 season here in Utah, it has been my do it all layer, I am still wearing it here in April, we just had a storm over the weekend, and this came in so handy. You need this in every color! It pairs so nicely with the Classic Thermal Merino Baselayer Bottom. #Backcountry Gearhead

Very warm

Kept my wife warm while skiing. She felt the wool was a little itchy but wasn’t a problem. Overall would recommend to anyone needing a warm baselayer.

Perfect for skiing

I bought this for my March ski trip in Park City, Utah. It was extremely warm and sometimes too warm at the base of the mountain. I have been in search of a good quality base layer and this one is superior to any of the others I have previously tried.

Classic

This top is a basic to wear hiking or in the city either alone or under a flannel shirt. It’s naturally tight fitting as it is designed to wear as a base layer. Since I prefer a looser fit, I chose the next size up. The sleeves are also long enough to cover the tops of the hands, if necessary.

Comfy and looks great.
- Familiarity:
- I've used it several times
I am athletic figure. 5'5 155 lbs (muscular) It fits very well, ample space but still form-fitting (not too snug). Will get LOTS of use from. this. Smartwool shirts last a really long time as well too, but don't dry it too much. Will shrink if you dry it too much. I have 4 smart wool shirts that I have been wearing several years, this same style.

Great

So soft! So stretchy! I upsized to an XL, usually I buy L but it doesn’t look baggy. This is so comfy to sleep in and wear as under or overwear.

a favorite; sized up for maternity wear
- Familiarity:
- I've used it several times
I really love these shirts for daily and active wear. I'm currently pregnant and have been desperate to find things that cover my swelling belly but also allow me to continue my running. I bought this 2 sizes larger than my typical size during my 2nd trimester and this shirt is still comfortable (though a bit long in the sleeves) and is long enough to cover the pregnancy bump while going on cold weather jogs. It's SO HARD to find active wear that is practical for pregnancy -- I love this shirt normally and am thrilled to let other expecting parents that sizing up works just grand for this product. Note on wear and tear: my other shirts have developed small holes after plentiful use/washing; easy enough to darn.
