Reviewed by 50 is just a # from Washington on Monday, June 03, 2013I had never heard of the Icebreaker brand of cycling jerseys (I am a recreational cyclist, however my husband races and is very familiar with cycling kits as they call them) but wanted to give this a try after reading the previous reviews. I ordered the purple one in medium. Love the vibrant color and I could immediately tell this was a quality product. There is a however, however. This is a tight fitting jersey. Usually I wear a small or medium depending on the brand. Here's the however; in this brand I returned the medium for a large. I am a 36C and I did not like how this jersey fit around my bust line. Sierra Trading makes it so easy to return and order a bigger size. The large was less constricting around the bust without being too loose around the waist and hips. Perfect! Great length on this jersey plus there is a gripper around the hem so it does not ride up. I am 5'5 and 1/2 and the jersey covered my derriere while standing. I have test ridden this jersey and I am now sold on Icebreaker! I have always thought of wool as itchy but not with this merino wool. I say order up a size if you are busty and you will give this your own 5 star rating!

Reviewed by bluebird from richmond ky on Wednesday, January 09, 2013I bought this to use for running, as I love the back pockets, and length, and esepcially the low collar and zipper. Beautiful design and craftsmanship!

Reviewed by momof4greatkids from NE Ohio on Monday, January 07, 2013I bought two of these to use in rotation on a cross country bike tour. The quality is premium. The back pockets were designed by a cyclist, there is a zippered pocket, and a phone or mp3 pocket strategically placed inside a larger pocket, so 5 pockets overall. The jersey itself is very stylish and beautifully made with feminine appeal. The gripper bottom keeps it from riding up. The length will cover the rear view. The zipper is deep for unzipping on hot days to promote ventilation. It holds it's shape with no bagging or sagging. The fabric feels soft and comfy against my skin, it is form fitting yet not binding. It does not require laundering after every use thanks to the miracle fiber, merino, so its perfect for multi-day tours. This is quite possibly the world's most perfect cycling jersey. Wish I had the long sleeve version as well.

Reviewed by exercisejunkie from sussex county, nj on Wednesday, December 05, 2012This was the first time I ever tried this brand. They make beautiful jerseys. I ordered the purple in a small since that was all that was left. It is just a stunning wool top. Problem is it is too snug to wear with a base layer which was my original intent. Sent it back hoping they will get more sizes in stock. The fabric felt great and didn't bind anywhere. Plus it had really good pockets which is a must when biking. It is true to size. The small fit (5'2" 125-130) without a base layer but was too snug with one underneath. Snug is subjective, sorry.

Reviewed by Sopra la luna from Minnesota on Thursday, May 24, 2012This is a very well made product and has excellent pockets (three back pockets plus a zipper pocket that fits a phone). It is a slim fit, so if you're looking for a loose-fitting jersey order a size up. I'm 5'4" and 115-120 pounds and I generally wear a women's XS (sometimes an S in cycling clothing) and ordered an extra small. It is quite fitted, which is what I prefer in cycling gear. It is a bit thick, so it is too warm for very hot weather, but will work well for biking in the seventies and for longer trips.
