I am 5'9" with broad shoulders and a trim, long waist. 135 lbs & 51 years old. I purchased a large so that I would have length in the body and the arms and the fit is perfect, although a bit large in the body, but that was expected. When I first pulled this puppy out of the bag, I wrinkled my nose at the v-neck/hoodie combo thing, but after I tried it on, I decided I could live with the funkiness. Shortly after, I went for a run with a light running jacket over this top. It was about 45F out so I wore no gloves -- the little finger loops were perfect at initially keeping my hands warm. As I got warmed up and unzipped my jacket at the neck, it occurred to me that I hate it when my neck is too warm when I run, then it clicked -- the v-neck is a cooling mechanism. (When I xc ski I will probably have wear a buff to cover this up.) Anyway, I had a comfortable run and when I got home I didn't want to take this shirt off. It felt like I was wrapped in silk. Since I was stinky, though, I reluctantly took it off, hand washed it with my swimsuit and hung it in the shower to dry so that I could wear it again very soon. I generally don't write reviews or rave about much, but if you're really into the way that things feel against your skin, buy this NOW! You will not be disappointed. Of course, it also has functional aspects, which I mentioned. Enjoy! The price is right.
