Comments about Mountain Hardwear Wicked Lite T-Shirt - Men's:
Ultra-light and ultra-compact; great to pack for camping or traveling. Moisture-wicking is exceptional while wearing; does not dry quite as quickly as I'd hoped after soaking. I'm in between Medium and Large on the sizing charts and went M on this one. Sizes certainly do NOT run any bigger than they say; I'd recommend going one size up if you're in the middle. Hoping to shed those last several pounds I'll need to lose to look great in my Medium MtHrdwr Wicked Lite-T.

Comments about Mountain Hardwear Wicked Lite T-Shirt - Men's:
I love this shirt so much I own two of them - and will likely buy more. (here's hoping they come out with more colors.) I already owned at least a dozen wicking/active shirts from Nike, Salomon, New Balance, Columbia, Reebok,etc. but this one is by far the best. The fabric and design are first class.
I mostly use this for my daily 3-5 mile runs at the gym or on the trails. The look is flexible enough to work well for camping, hiking, biking, or just regular casual wear
The look is great - almost a fitted cut, but still fits loosely and allows for any sort of movement. Most of the time, it feels like I'm running without a shirt on at all.
The reflective MH logo is also a nice touch.

Comments about Mountain Hardwear Wicked Lite T-Shirt - Men's:
I just ordered another one of these shirts. These are the best active wear shirts I have found. MH Has a winner with this T. It weighs next to nothing, wicks super and dries blazingly fast. I cant say enough about these shirts. Dont let the price scare you off as the durability makes up for the few extra $$ over some of the competition.

Comments about Mountain Hardwear Wicked Lite T-Shirt - Men's:
I use these shirts for backpacking. They are my first performance-type shirt I've bought (I just used cotton on previous seasons). I bought these because they were so highly recommended.
I have used them several times this season and I love them! Very small and lightweight, they dry very quickly making hiking and backpacking (and even mowing the lawn) much more comfortable.
I've even washed them out in mountain lakes, because they are so quick drying. It makes for a much more comfortable (and clean) evening after a long day's packing.
This is my first season with them so I don't know how they'll hold up over time, but I haven't noticed anything to indicate they will wear out quickly.
They are sized on the small end of the spectrum. I'm about 5'8" and 135lbs. I wear 60% small and 40% medium sized T-Shirts. I bought the small (big sale online), but definitely could have gone with the medium sized.

Comments about Mountain Hardwear Wicked Lite T-Shirt - Men's:
After buying the original Wicked T that Mountain Hardwear offers, I gave up on cotton altogether, and got rid of 98% of the cotton shirts in my closet. Those Wicked T's, of which I own about 20 (no joke) fill my closet and are super comfortable, mega-wicking, fast-drying, non-stretching, and virtually stain-resistant. These shirts are great for just about any adventure and I have taken them from the desert to the arctic, because amazingly they keep you cool in warm climes, and warm in cold climes. And they are great for travel, take up almost no room in your gear bag, easy to wash in a sink because they don't stretch out of shape, so they can take on just about anything. Those original Wicked T's are practically bullet-proof, with one exception: They snag easily on velcro, branches, anything with a sharp corner, creating pulls and sometimes odd lines in the shirt. But I wear them nonetheless, because they are awesome in every respect. Then, along come the Wicked T Lite. Amazing! These shirts have all the above-listed great characteristics and qualities of the Wicked T, are half as light in weight, have a more active cut to the the design, and seem to be made from an even better wicking material that doesn't snag. So now they are my favorite shirt. I only have 5 so far, but will be getting more, that can be assured! If you've tried everything that the other brands have to offer, but haven't tried these yet, you must try one now, because they beat everyone from Nike to Columbia to anyone else. They are well worth the $ and you should be able to find deals on them from REI and others for about $25 ea. [...]
