I absolutely love, love, love the silky, lightweight, breezy feel of this shirt - it will be a go-to for hot weather activities. I've also gotten compliments on the Festive Fuschia color block design. It is very bright (great for visibility) and has a fun 80's look to it. The fit of the shirt is generous. I understand the longer drop tail for biking, but the mid section is very, very boxy. I easily could have sized down and still been comfy and roomy. So, if you don't like a fit that tapers in, this is the shirt for you! #smartwoollove
This shirt is so perfect for cycling. Not heavy, very flowy to allow for great body movement. My favourite thing is the arms. Most women's shirts have tighter sleeves near the armpit/shoulders but this one has just the right amount of fabric for tonnes of movement but not too baggy that it's uncomfortable. The fabric is incredibly soft, didn't stink after two good rides! It does fit quite large. I'm normally a medium (5'3"" 145lbs) but would definitely have been closer to a small in this style. #SmartwoolLove
I had to return this item, as it was just entirely too see-through. Unfortunately, when wearing high-waisted undergarments + sports bra + leggings + this shirt, I could see clearly the color of my sports bra, color of the undergarments waistband, color of the leggings (and where the leggings/underclothes overlapped). I tried this in the aqua/blue color, and in the fiesta/multi/bright color - both were just very see-through, too much to wear comfortably, and so were sent back.
I love this silky soft fabric! It's cozy under a warmer layer, and a perfect lightweight summer top. The fuschia color is bright and fun. The fit is relaxed rather than regular and is quite boxy, especially in the hips. I will likely wear it more for hiking than for biking as I prefer a more tapered bike jersey. I'll order a size down next time, but I definitely recommend treating yourself to one of Smartwool's ultralite pieces; the fabric is amazing! #smartwoollove
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love how soft the material is and how well it hangs. Ultra-light wool that's comfortable even in the summer (though the material held up better when hiking at higher altitudes/cooler temps—tried hiking in 90+ degree weather on a humid day and shirt was instantly soaked). Colors look even better in real life than in photos—sophisticated and lovely. #sweepstakes
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Lightweight, soft, and gorgeous colors—thankfully not as bright as appears in photos (purchased both rose and blue shirts). After reading reviews, ordered a size down which fit perfectly (typically wear a medium, ordered a small). Material is great for hiking in slightly cooler temps—became soaked when hiked in 90+ degrees. #sweepstakes
Light, airy and supremely comfy with beautiful colors. Wish I'd listened to everyone and sized down to a large as it's very roomy, even in the chest area (I'm a FF and the XL offers plenty of room). Has been perfect for biking, stays cool and fresh smelling even after hot rides and still looks great at lunch when we stop on the way!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had some older shirts that I still loved but they needed retiring. I went with this jersey because I knew I'd love it and it would hold up (and not get stinky) for a long time. It fits great, is comfortable on my rides, and cleans well. I'd love to win a Smartwool #sweepstakes so that I could wear Smartwool all the time.
What a great lightweight and colorful shirt! It does not show sweat, stink and it dries quickly so I am going to use this shirt for my upcoming bike packing trips. It feels soft on my skin and fits a little big but it conformed well to my body when I was riding so if you want a snugger fit go down a size. #SmartwoolLove
Love the color blocking and softness of the fabric. Like other comments, it fits a bit big and boxy but is real comfortable. Back hem drops a bit for more rear coverage. Sleeves hit a bit lower on my arms and are roomier than my 150 tees. Bottom line: comfortable, flowy and great for warm days. #SmartwoolLove
