Nice shirt - but made me itch.... By erika from kitchener, ON on 03/28/2009 Pros: Breathable, Lightweight Best Uses: Anytime, Cold Weather Describe Yourself: Frequent Exerciser Sizing: Feels true to size Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: The first time I wore this shirt I had horrible itching and got a rash on my arms. I have never had a problem with merino before, especially Icebreaker, and suspect the shirt may have been treated with something before packaging. It was better on the second wearing after a wash. If you have sensitive skin, you may consider washing before wearing.
Icebreaker products are amazing!

Slim fit means just that; truly a slim first layer. Otherwise I find the sizing a tad big, which means I don't have to worry about shrinkage. The fabric gets a nicer feel to it with each washing. They do "fluff" a little after washing, which is NOT the same as pilling. I believe the fluffing makes it softer and more breathable. Even though these shirts are thin, they are very warm as a first layer. Warm and pretty, not like your usual thermals, so you don't mind leaving your outer layer unzipped a bit. Perfect travel companions too as they wash out in a sink and are dry the next morning! However, it's true what they say; you can go for days and they never stink or itch. What a great product. Thanks Icebreaker and STP for carrying them! Who cares if they are "last years colors?"
Nice wool shirt!!! Great price!! By SherBear from Fort Collins, CO on 03/16/2009 Pros: Comfortable, Lightweight Best Uses: Anytime, Cold Weather, Running Describe Yourself: Conditioning Exerciser Sizing: Feels half size too big Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I got it for an outer layer for cool spring days that get warm quickly. I got a Med...usually a Sml and it's pretty roomy. I've been wearing it around the house because it's comfy! Ran in it yesterday and it does it's job! Pretty color! I will probably use it more for running errands than running just because it's cute with jeans and a layer underneath! Great buy! Getting more colors!
By suzicruzi from Portland, OR. on 03/15/2009 Pros: Comfortable, Lightweight Describe Yourself: Conditioning Exerciser Sizing: Feels half size too big Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Nice color (Dawn); nicer than pictured actually. Sleeves long enough, tapered fit w/o being binding. Sewn for a woman's body with hips! A tad longer than I would have preferred, but I"m only average height. I'd say they take into consideration tall girls too so that's a plus! I can always shrink it in the dryer a bit. It's soft and comfortable and the fit and cut make it a great layering piece. I give it 5 stars for workmanship too!
By rockhills from Seattle, WA on 03/07/2009 Pros: Breathable, Comfortable, Lightweight Best Uses: Anytime, Around the house, Cold Weather, Hiking, Snow sports Describe Yourself: Frequent Exerciser Sizing: Feels true to size Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I received it last night and tried it on right away because I had been uncertain about the size. Not only did it fit perfectly, it was so comfortable it ended up becoming a nightshirt too! It is also form-fitting (in a flattering way) without being tight. I plan on buying it in other colors the next time they are discounted.
