Fantastic quality and great fit.
This is a great quality shirt. It is very soft, good quality, and true to fit. I’ve ordered lots of clothes off amazon and most are waaaay too small or I have to order 3 sizes larger than I would buy in a US store. I’m 5’8” and typically wear a size 10-12 and I ordered a size Large in this shirt. Plus it’s super warm - went hiking this weekend and I didn’t even need my jacket.

The best stretchy wool base layer ever
This shirt is the best! It has stretch to it but is wool so when you break a sweat it doesn’t leave you feeling wet or cold. As a volunteer firefighter, this is especially helpful. It’s just below the waist, nice and the sleeves are long enough with a great logo on the upper back by Roman Trails the manufacturer. I love this shirt for anything even sleeping but it’s the perfect base layer for any colder weather activities.

My Go-To
Love this shirt! I'm 5'5" 150lbs with large bust and the medium fits just right.It's lightweight and great for layering. The arms are fitted but not tight. The sleeve length is perfect.I wear it running and it breathes easy. I also wear it under sweaters for daytime wear. It's great for camping, hiking, and bedtime. All around a great buy!!

Best base layer ever!!!
I bought this as a base later for winter running. It’s absolutely perfect!! I am training for a marathon in the spring and have to run long distances in the cold Boston winter. This shirt kept me warm, but not hot. It wicks sweat away so I always feel dry, even if I’m sweating a lot. When I am done running, it dries quickly and does not stick to my skin. It also does not stink, probably because it dries so quickly. All around, a pretty perfect base layer! My only slight complaint is that it is somewhat sheer when worn alone, but this is not a deal-breaker since I almost always wear it under something. Highly recommend!

Unlike Merino wool, this shirt holds odors
The wool fabric is very light and see-thru. It still keeps me warm on days when the temps dip into the 30s. Here’s the thing - my other more expensive Merino wool shirts never smell after a workout. I can wear them day after day with no washing for a week and they never smell. Not so with this shirt. It smells immediately after wearing once. In fact, even after washing, it holds the odor. For that reason, I do not recommend this shirt as I do not trust the actual materials to be as they claim.

Solid bet for the price point
I took a chance on this brand that I hadn’t previously heard of because lightweight merino crew neck tees were sold out pretty much every where else I looked. My gamble turned out to be a solid bet. These are soft and fit well. I like the colors (cream, blue, charcoal, black). That color range can be hard to find in merino, especially cream and blue! They have tags and tagless would be better but I won’t complain. One drawback is that the stitching in the cuff snags on my metal Fitbit band so the stitching frayed pretty badly on the first shirt I wore. I was also surprised that a long thread came loose from the bottom hem of the shirt when I washed it. I took pains to wash it on permanent press cycle with Eucalan wool wash and a pair of my icebreaker pants but it still unraveled. We will see how the rest of the 4 tops I bought fare over the long run but so far for the price point ($50 each) I’m fairly satisfied. There are better quality products out there but not at this price.

So great I've kept ordering more and more
This is a almost unbelievably superfine lightweight weave, very soft on my dry skin, and very comfortable. Once I figured out how great they are, I bought one in every color. I'm cold-blooded and wore one as an under layer virtually every day this past winter. The color of the blue/purple one is so pretty I bought TWO and wear it as an outer layer. The neckline isn't particularly flattering so I wear it with a scarf. I gave one to my daughter and two daughters in law. They all love them too.

Great Merino Wool Shirt-purchased it for when I'm cycling/ bike touring
Merino Wool is highly recommended by bike tourers for comfort, temperature regulation, and resistance to smells. However, many brands that feature Merino Wool are woefully expensive. I chose to buy one of these shirts since the price was more reasonable. I have ZERO regrets. This shirt fits as expected (I like relaxed fit), so comfortable. I normally buy Medium sized athletic shirts and this fits perfectly (I'm 5'4" , 125lbs /162.5 cm, 57kg).I always (all year round) wear long sleeved shirts when I cycle for sun protection, bug protection, and temperature regulation. This shirt has performed as desired. I switched from cycling specific jerseys because of cost and limited options for women. Shirts like this are nice when riding because it makes for an easy transition from the trail to a restaurant/non-biking activity without having to bring along additional clothing items. It was sunny (61F/16C) but also windy on my rides so I'll have to wait for higher temperatures to rate how suitable this shirt will be when I ride in the summer.I've ridden twice without washing in between (albeit short 14 mile/22.5 km rides) and there was no smell. Washed the shirt in the washer and hung it to dry inside. The shirt dried overnight which is ideal. Quick drying is important when on a bike tour. No one wants to wear a wet shirt the next day while riding. The seams seemed to be sewed well.Let's talk color....I LOVE the color but it isn't really cycle visible. The color is a beautiful coppery fall color. Looks great. I checked their website are they sell a beautiful deep Navy and a deep Magenta colored shirt as well. Also not ideal for being visible while riding (better than black). I contacted the company and recommended they introduce one or two brighter colors. Not high-vis neon, just brighter so those like me can feel more visible when we ride. Fingers crossed that they produce at least 1 option, because I know I'll be making that purchase. I considered buying the magenta colored shirt because it looks so good, but I'm gonna hold off for now. I try to limit my active wear purchases to items that are suitable to riding so I'm not overrun with clothes.
