Cannot fault these in colder weather, they really do make a difference. I have two of them now and recommended to a friend and another was purchased. NFC prices made the difference in where to buy them.

Great base layer!
I've never worn merino wool before so I was a but skeptical when I saw how thin it was out of the box. Then after I put in on under my existing clothes it felt like a radiator on my skin. I'll be getting more of these for sure!
I'm usually in-between a size M and L. The M is pretty much perfect so if you're like me then go for the slight size down. Super comfy and toasty warm!

Great fit. Feels very comfortable and very warm. Great when you need to layer up as it does not feel bulky.

A very thin layer, so very comfortable and so warm.

Reasonably priced for merino. Pleasantly warm throughout the day and no itchy seams as some similar garments have. Size was just right. I'd have preferred the green one, but that was more expensive so needs must. A great addition to your wardrobe, if you don't want to wear too much bulk on top of it.

Feels very good - soft and relatively thick as a base layer. Incredible value. Good sizing too üëçüèº

Very nice. Love the feel and warmth without bulk.
Also its merino and a bargain at this price!
I found it a little over sized for a base layer. I could comfortably have gone a size smaller than usual to get that snug fit.

Itchier than Davey Crocketts beard
I'm a manly man who braves the outdoors. Torrential rains, hurricanes, snow blizzards that will chill your heart, you name it, I laugh at them. I decided to get myself a merino base layer because of my delicate and soft skin (hello ladies) so purchased this vest in the hopes that I would be sleeping like a lamb. 'itchy?' I hear you ask. 'It was Worse than sleeping on an ants nest' I say. I battled on with my manly disposition but in the end I am ashamed to say that this excuse of a brillo pad shirt beat me to the ground. In defeat I wrestled it off me like a rabied grizzly amd am now back to my usual content self, albeit a little lighter in the bank balance. 'oh no!' I hear you say. 'No not really' says I. This lovely garment has now turned into a scouring pad. And that Lady and Gentleman is called being resourceful.

The shirt is both comfortable and good-looking, so it works well as a baselayer and on its own.
