Steelhead stalker by day, film festival critic by night. For your ever-changing identities, keep this Capilene top handy. A cozy, snug-fitting collar and a deep zipper backed by a draft flap allows for handy internal climate control; biometric construction provides a superior, contoured fit with no bulk. Fine thread detailing and flat seams offer a touch of elegance and a smooth hand. The discreet, angled zippered chest pocket is easily accessed beneath bibs or a rain shell. Made of 50% recycled (and 100% recyclable) polyester from our Common Threads Recycling Program, with Gladiodor natural odor control. Imported. Common Threads Recycling ProgramResearch shows that the environmental impact of recycling worn-out Capilene base layers into new polyester fiber is significantly lower than making that same fiber from virgin materials. Taking into account that worn-out garments are diverted from trash incinerators, making new polyester fiber from recycled garments results in an energy savings of 76% and a CO2 emissions [greenhouse gasses] reduction of 71%, versus creating that fiber from new raw material. Capilene Core PerformanceCapilene base layers afford quick-drying, next-to-skin moisture management for all activities in all conditions ? from high-altitude bivies to sun-soaked water sports.

Great product
I have several Patagonia Capilene zip turtlenecks of weights 2,3, and 4. Some are 4-5 yrs old. The fit is great. They clean well (I do a lot of hand washing of these while on hiking trips) and they dry fast. The 4 weight is terrific for cold weather aerobic activity (like snowshoeing). I also wear these around the house on those January days when we dial down our thermostat. While hiking, I always carry an extra to layer up if the weather changes.

Not just a baselayer.
This works very well as a cold-weather baselayer, but I often find myself wearing it as a lightweight top during cooler weather without a shell. It is light, very comfortable, and warm with a great fit.

Use for everything!
Slim enough for a baselayer but not so tight that you can't use it as a pullover jacket in the Spring and Fall. I have 3 and wear them for everything.
