Merino Wool Base Merino Wool Hiking T Shirt MenLayer Men

Free returns, I guessed that it wouldn’t hurt to look at these, but at their price I thought they were probably cheaply made. Well, I was wrong! I like them, and they seemed to be of just as good quality and fairly similar thickness of other high quality merino wool t-shirts. I am big on merino wool person, and having trekked over 12,000 miles in the last six years, always wear merino wool as a base layer and top layer. I also use merino wool clothing for everyday wear. I have many of the top brands, Meriwool, Merino.tech, Minus33, Woolly, Smartwool, Burton, and my favorite, Icebreaker. I have found over the years that most of clothing from the brand names companies are of fairly similar overall good quality, and now Merino Protect will be up there with merino wool clothing I’ll buy.The material definitely is wool, and if you’ve worn merino before, you’d notice that right away and not mistake it for any other material. The collar is not overly loose like many cheap t-shirts, and the stitching appears well made. I am 6’1” and was concerned with some of the reviews that noted it was short. I ordered x-large and it fits me well as I am about 195 lbs. If you are bigger, you might be out of luck. For me, before it was washed, it hung well below my belt, and almost to my crotch, plenty long for me. However, the sleeves seemed fairly short, but that is the style with most t-shirts, and I just like them long like the old traditional t-shirts.I have read several reviewers state that they thought this material was thin, and even cheap. To me it seems that these might be around 160-170 gm of merino wool, fairly standard for light to mid weight wool t-shirts. They are definitely not thin! Compared to cotton for sure, but if you’ve never worn merino wool as an all around t-shirt, you might not know that this thickness and feel is typical of all merino wool t-shirts.I bought three black and one camo, and I am surprised and very pleased with the quality, and plan to buy several more for this price! I bought a lot of Merino.tech t-shirts when they first came out because they were price below everyone else because they were new. Now they are up there in price with all the other merino wool t-shirts, and maybe that’s why these are so very reasonably priced for a very good quality merino wool t-shirt. I’d say, get these at this price while you can.

I've been a long-time fan of Merino wool clothing, especially when it comes to using them as winter base layers and for cool-weather travel. My experience with Merino wool has always been positive in terms of its benefits and comfort. Recently, I decided to expand my travel wardrobe and purchased the Merino Protect 100% Merino Wool T Shirt, as well as a slightly less expensive option from MERINNOVATION.Though I haven't had the opportunity to put these shirts to the test during my travels yet, I couldn't resist trying them out during scorching 100-degree weather. The results were impressive! Among the Merino Wool Protect, MERINNOVATION, and regular cotton t-shirts, the Merino Wool Protect shirt stood out. Its design seemed to prioritize ventilation, allowing me to feel surprisingly cool despite the intense heat. In contrast, the MERINNOVATION shirt felt notably hotter than even the regular cotton tee, which was quite unexpected.I can't help but wonder if the variance in merino wool blends between these two shirts contributed to the significant difference in comfort levels. Regardless, the Merino Wool Protect shirt unquestionably emerged as the winner in this comparison. The superior cooling effect it provided was a game-changer, making it an obvious choice for my upcoming travels.Unfortunately, the MERINNOVATION shirt didn't live up to expectations and was promptly returned. It's clear to me that the Merino Wool Protect shirt is the real deal, offering both the benefits of merino wool and a thoughtfully engineered design for ventilation.While I'm eagerly awaiting the chance to put these shirts through their paces during actual travel scenarios, my initial experience with the Merino Wool Protect shirt leaves me optimistic and impressed. Its cooling performance and comfortable fit have already won me over. I can't wait to see how it performs on my next adventure!Pros:Impressive cooling performance even in extreme heatComfortable fit and designClear distinction from less effective alternatives like MERINNOVATIONCons:Limited testing opportunity so farOverall, highly recommended for anyone seeking quality merino wool clothing that truly delivers on comfort and cooling capabilities!

This Merino wool shirt is high quality and a medium suits me (5'6", 165 lbs.) well. This is not my first Merino Protect clothing; I also have a base layer set that I bought for hiking but ended up wearing practically all winter. I appreciate how these Merino wool items fit and how they feel. Although this shirt is 100% wool, it is very light and I don't find it too heavy or hot to wear even on warmer days.

This is a great t-shirt. I own 10 of them. Lightweight, wicking, comfortable. I wash in the washer and hang to dry. The material is amazing. Sadly, it wears quickly. 6 of my shirts after a year or so have holes. Back and front. I keep ordering them to keep up with the deterioration of the fabric. I would buy them as many times as needed by just want to say, they do not last. Size is exact and Color stays true after a year of washing. Love these t-shirts.

Comfortable, high quality material. Great for wicking moisture away from the body. Odor resistant. Cool in warm climate. Warm in cool climate.
