I purchased this in the Atlantis blue color. I was excited to get my new long underwear, but back at went to the store because  the tag in this top is located on your lower left side in an uncomfortable location, and worse, it’s not cloth, it’s stiff scratchy paper that is sewn into the top,  there is no way of removing it. And if you’re like me, and stiff paper scratchy tags really bother you, then cutting them with a scissor is also going to bother you because it leaves remains that are stiff scratchy paper, razors.  I’m very unhappy with this display of cheapness by otherwise good brand. Size was great. Purchased a small.
Substantial feel but soft this has been a great base layer for xc skiing in the very cold. Some wool base layers are like tissue paper. This quarter zip is substantial. Came back to order another icebreaker.
Feels snuggly and soft. I have a circulation problem and need to keep my core warm. This is replacing my worn out top after years of wear.
Love the feel, fit and weight of this top. It is a bit heavier than I expected and is so cosy.
This is just what I wanted. A heavier weight merino that I can use as a base layer or wear as a sweater with a shawl or scarf. Nice color too. I’m tired of grey and blue.
It's a nice shirt in terms of fit and style, but the color was really drab and unappealing. I returned it.
