This product is cheaply made and is only 52% merino wool compared to the previous design being 87%. Runs small, and the material is scratchy. Will be returning it asap.
A great transitional layer, now that it is spring this has been great for a spring skiing base-layer, coolish runs, and mountain biking! It's pretty breathable during higher output (mtn bike ups, or skiing moguls in the spring sun) and dries quickly so that it can keep me warm (mtn bike downs, or windy chairlifts). I've had this at the top of my pile and have also been out in some runs with it.
I miss the older version of the Lana. What’s with all the weird and unnecessary seaming? Keep it simple. The armpit gusset on the old one, the simple t-shirt design. It was perfect, why does everything need an update every few years? It was such a beautiful and sturdy shirt. One of the few wool shirts of all the brands that stood up against pills, ugh, send me back in time.
I have several of the old version of the Lana t-shirt and I decided to give this new version a try. I wore it and washed it a few times so that I could give it a fair review. It is a nice t-shirt, but I like the old Lana better. The old Lana has a higher merino wool content, which I prefer. I also prefer the fit and the style of the seams on the old version of the Lana. The sleeves of the new version do not fit as well as the old version and stick out awkwardly (at least on me). The old Lana sleeves fit perfectly and were flattering. I also don’t like the athletic-looking top stitching on this new version because I like to wear the shirts for non-athletic occasions. However, I do prefer the shorter length of the new Lana. The old version was too long. Everything Arcteryx makes seems to be too long. My recommendation is for Arcteryx to go back to the old version of the Lana, but just make it the length of the new version.
LOVED the old Lana Tshirt model. Both longsleeve and short sleeve, I own multiple and wear them always. Just purchased this new design, and it is not great. Unflattering cut, and weird t'shirt shape and seems. Please bring back the original design for the Lana shirt in various colours please.
Breathable and the perfect weight for summer activities; comfortable and flattering fit; easy care for travel; takes zero space in your luggage. Hands down better than any other summer wool product I’ve purchased from competitors. More colours please.
Horrendous revision of what used to be an amazing shirt. Will never buy this top again. Awful.
