I have scores of UA performance shirts and bought a couple of these to have some moisture-wicking shirts with some printing on them to look less “athletic.” Wore them for a number of hikes recently and have found these to handle moisture way better than any of my UA shirts. These are lighter and handle sweat better to start, and when they do get wet, they dry super fast. They’re not tailored fit, but the size and fit is pretty normal (neither too big nor too tight, but I could have gone down from L to M if I wanted closer fit.) I may buy a few more and dump most of my UA shirts.
I love this shirt. It wicks away sweat while hiking and dries quick. It does not stick t you when trying to get off which is a huge bonus for me. After several wash cycles it still looks new.
I gave this 4 stars instead of 5 because I only wore the shirt once for a local walk, so I can't attest to durability (REI wants feedback so soon after purchase). Size XL fits me very well. I'm 6' tall and 220 lbs with average shoulders and some extra girth around the middle. Like all Patagonia apparel, it is very well made with quality materials. Very comfortable, and I have little doubt this shirt will perform well when I put it to the test with vigorous hiking.
Soft with just the right protection on a hot sunny day.
Nice!I really love this T- shirt in the hot summer.
The Capilene fabric is very light and comfortable. It is moisture-wicking and its ability to dry rapidly is unlike anything I've come across which is very helpful when hiking or other kind of aerobic activities. The fit is true to size although I found the length to be shorter by a couple of inches compared to my other t-shirts. I'm 6'2'' and the t-shirt is long enough but ideally I'd like it to be a bit longer.
Super soft. There was no UPF rating on it, but Patagonia customer service answered right away 30-40 UPF. I only planned on getting the hoodie version but loved it so much I also got the T-Shirt
Always great quality with Patagonia and the shirt is no exception this summer. Fits comfortably and size M is true for my body!
Keeps me cool on runs, during yard work and all around warm weather chillin. Love the light grey color too!
Very lit shirt love it on of the shirts at the top of my rotation for the summer.
