This is the best piece of winter clothing I have ever owned. Whether paddling, skiing, or just hanging out, these tops perform like magic. They wick moisture away from your skin and are soft and fuzzy. This is a piece of gear I'm never without! Customer Service they stand behind everything they make and will bend overbackwards to help you out. Similar Products Used: polypro from different manufactures |

This is the most versetile piece of clothing I own. It's great as a first layer on realy cold days. On warmer days it's all you need. I have two of them and wear them during all four seasons. My only recomendation is that if you plan to wear it as an outer layer for warmer days, buy one size up. Customer Service Patagonia has always been great about replacing clothing if a seam goes or whatever. Similar Products Used: None |

This is the best, most versatile piece of clothing I own. This stuff is soft, very warm considering it weighs about nothing and is the first piece I look for when it even looks like it may be cold outside. If I could I would wear it everyday. When skiing in December I wore this over a midweight long underwear top and under my Gore shell and I was warm when the temps were in the 0s and teens. I have yet to find anything that will replace this shirt-I went camping one time without it and missed it the whole trip. Customer Service I have had no experience with them but it sounds like they are pretty responsive. Similar Products Used: Nothing I have tried compares to this top--it is lighter than any jacket but packs great warmth and compresses very well. |

Two days backcountry skiing and snow test pit digging and climbing up hills (in Yukon)- great warmth even with stop and start activity. Warm enough to wear alone when skiing or climbing but dried quick enough to prevent chills when we stopped - and feels soooo cuddly! I am pleased. Customer Service I was lucky enough to get this item on sale 40% off. Similar Products Used: I also own silk, wool/cotton mix (Stanfield) and bargain synthetic brands - silk takes longer to dry and feels clammy when wet. Wool is a little itchy, especially with pack straps. I am finding the bargain synthetic brands pill badly after only a couple of washings. |

A very cozy top that can be used as a base layer or as insulation. Light enough to be versitile yet it would be very handy as a base layer if gets really cold. One of my favourite fleece tops to wear anytimes. As usual the quality from Patagonia is first rate as all seams are perfectly finished and the cut is excellent. I can tell I'll have this top for years to come. |
