Description of Backcountry.com Merino Zip T-Neck Shirt - Long-Sleeve - Women's:
|
We made our Backcountry.com Women's Long-Sleeve Zip Tee with super-fine New Zealand Merino, flattering women's-specific fit flat-locked seams, and a ½ zip chest so you can tackle anything from a 5-day backpacking trip to a run around the neighborhood in complete comfort. Given its super-fine 18-micron Merino knit, the naturally odor-resistant Merino Zip Tee feels great as a next-to-skin base layer. Merino transfers your moisture just as well, if not better than most synthetic fabrics, and it won't leave you shivering after a good sweat since wool stays warm even when wet. Bust open the ½ zip neck for a little extra ventilation when you reach the top of your climb or finish your bike ride with a sprint. Thumbholes in the Merino Zip Tee's cuffs help the sleeves stay put when worn as a layering piece, and the contrast side panels put an end to being rubbed the wrong way.
 |
|
Bottom Line: The Backcountry.com Men's Long-Sleeve Zip Tee leaves stinking synthetic base layers wanting.

| Its my favorite 02-01-08 |
Daffy (72):  |
| I now have a favorite wool top to go with my favorite wool bottoms (Ibex loose tights). When I say 'favorite', let me clarify what that means: it has to be an item that I don't have to wash very often, looks good, and will last a long time. I love wool but its expensive. I always know it will be a good investment though. This definitely is. I usually wear a medium and got a medium. I was a little surprised that it was more fitted than expected, but a large would have been to big. |

| Versatile Layer- Under or Over 11-04-08 |
Kim Havell (41):  |
| Excellent layer that works well as a top or only layer, as well as an under layer for skiing, winter running, or ice climbing or other. The zipper is long and allows for a well protected neck area or more breathability when unzipped all the way. The October Grape color is rad- very feminine. It also has a great female cut to it, and love the panels as it off-sets the other fabric. It is a light weight layer but provides more warmth then you would guess for it's thickness. I am 5'7 and medium build- and the medium fits perfectly. Perfect for just about any outdoor activity that requires a versatile layer, or for just hanging out in at home. A must have for your sport clothing arsenal. |

| A Winner! 12-19-08 |
J Grace (4):  |
| I just got mine in the mail today and can already tell I'll be making good use out of it! It's extremely soft, well-fitted, and comfortable even when zipped all the way (doesn't feel like you're being strangled). It's definitely an "athletic fit" and would probably be tight across the chest and armpits for bustier women (I'm an A/B and it fits just fine). The thumb-loops and trim fit are great for layering. Thanks, BC, for a great shirt! |
