Brooks  Momentum Thermal Half-Zip - Men's

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This half zip is a great option for colder weather. I’ve run in it a few times in some cooler fall temperatures (40-50s) and it’s run a little warm. Looking forward to trying it out in colder temperatures. I wear a size S normally and this size S fits true to size. It’s also comfortable and stylish enough to wear casually outside of running. Great shirt!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The thermal sweater fits beautifully. It sits nice and smooth and adjusts well to exercise. It is very comfortable to exercise in or even to wear it around the house. The fabric is made not to overheat once you’re out on the trail. It looks sleek and is very flattering. This is a well made, comfortable product! Highly recommend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great technical top for fall adventures! Autumn has arrived here in the mountains and the Momentum Thermal 1/2 Zip has become my new go-to. It’s been great to throw on for chilly morning runs/hikes or under a jacket for rainy days. The insulation weight is slightly less than other grid fleeces that I’ve had, and strikes good balance between warmth and breathability. I’m 5’10” and 150lb, and the medium is right size for me. And it’s got a great fit: the fabric and cut provides room and stretch for movement, without being billowy. And the thumb holes are a plus for a bit of extra hand coverage as the temps dip. In short: a great, functional top that has become my go-to for both work and causal.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Brooks Momentum Thermal 1/2 Zip is what I'll want to reach for when the weather starts getting cooler. The fit is true to size and feels comfortable without being too loose or too tight. The material is semi-fitted and has some stretch to it, moving with me naturally while I’m running. It’s also breathable, which makes a big difference on longer runs, and I can see myself using it as a great layering piece as temperatures start to drop. It’s lightweight, soft, and warm enough to take the chill off without making me feel overheated. I like that it feels like a true performance piece while still having the clean, simple style I prefer. The reflective trim along the lower back is a nice addition. I was initially concerned that the black thread covering most of the trim would reduce its reflectivity, but it doesn’t seem to affect its visibility. That said, I would still use additional visibility gear when running in the dark. This is a comfortable and versatile running layer that I'll be reaching for throughout the cooler months.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Brooks Momentum Thermal half zip is one of the better “running” thermal layer shirts I’ve worn. Tried it as both a base layer and intermediate layer and was definitely comfortable in colder night conditions. Not the most breathable fabric structure but living in a colder climate I prefer the heat trapping properties overall. It has potential as a thermal base layer for skiing at least in the early season before the real deep freeze sets in. I also tried this shirt while rowing and lifting weights. The stretch and fit of the shirt makes it excellent for both. Many base layer insulators are often restrictive or oddly cut in the under arm area making them awkward for weightlifting, rowing, golf, and other sports besides running. Not this shirt. Brooks remembered all the athletes doing things other than running. The zipper on the neck is a little tight when zipped all the way up, so slightly larger neck sizing would be helpful. Other than that my only critique would be to add a reflective strip for night workouts in weather conditions when it’s the only shirt being worn.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’m really impressed with the Brooks Momentum Thermal 1/2 Zip so far. The material is one of the first things I noticed… it’s soft, lightweight, and breathable, with enough stretch to move comfortably without feeling restrictive. My favorite feature is definitely the thumb holes. They’re such a simple detail, but they make a big difference. They help keep the sleeves securely in place while also giving you a little extra coverage around your hands when it’s cold out. It’s one of those features you don’t necessarily think you need until you have it. The 1/2 zip is another feature I really like. I’m a fan of the zipper length because it gives you plenty of room to adjust airflow and temperature. You can keep it zipped for extra warmth or open it up when you start heating up, which should make it especially useful when running in changing temperatures. I also really like the overall look. It has a clean, athletic style without looking overly technical, so it’s something you could easily wear before or after a run as well. Overall, the combination of the soft, breathable material, thumb holes, and adjustable 1/2 zip makes this feel like a really versatile layer. I’m looking forward to finally getting some miles in it once the temperatures come down.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This sweatshirt is comfortable and warming, but hardly noticeable in terms of weight. It's the kind of warming layer I appreciate having in my dresser for cold days where I'm looking to put something on that will help me warm up without roasting out. I also appreciated wearing it around the house when the temperature was just a little chilly. This kept me comfortable, but did not feel heavy like a hoodie. Also just the right size to fit my frame snuggly.
