Comments about Mountain Hardwear Super Wicked Polo - Men's:
I own two of these (loved the first so much that I had to buy another) and use them primarily for mountain biking. These have replaced all my biking jerseys as the fabric and design is by far the best I've ever used.
– Front zip allows lots of ventilation – as does the open fit at the sleeves and bottom
– Collar keeps sun off of neck
– Fabric is amazing; super light, cool and comfortable, dries instantly
– Subtle colors are nice
Big downside: the fabric is very delicate and anything like velcro will catch on it in the wash and cause it too fray and pick severely. I wash all kinds of synthetic jerseys and tees and have never seen a fabric so prone to picking as this so be warned. But besides aesthetics, I do love these shirts and will probably buy another.

Comments about Mountain Hardwear Super Wicked Polo - Men's:
This shirt looks great, feels great, and is light as a feather. However, as the other reviewer pointed out, this shirt will fray at the very sight of velcro. Unless you spend a lot of time in padded rooms, look for other options. Mine lasted an entire hour before it snagged and frayed.[...]

Comments about Mountain Hardwear Super Wicked Polo - Men's:
It feels amazing and does its job well, especially as a biking shirt. But frays extremely easily, within an hour of putting it on along the trails it had torn fibers and frays. I will be keeping it and wearing it about town, but always with the dangers of rough points in the back of my mind.

Comments about Mountain Hardwear Super Wicked Polo - Men's:
I use the shirt primarily while hiking and mt biking, but I wear it around town too. I have not experienced the fraying problem mentioned by the others, but I must admit I'm rather careful when laundering all my synthetic running/biking/hiking clothes. No velcro ever goes near any of it! It dries so quickly, I don't even put it in the dryer after washing...just hang it up for a few minutes.
