I bought this and another Icebreaker T-shirt (Icebreaker Men's Tech T Lite Short Sleeve Shirt) at the same time. Just wanted buyers to know this shirt is a very form fitting shirt. I'm very slim (150lb, 6') and the Medium clings to every inch. As a base layer it would be great, but I was looking for something I could where by itself. Of course if you want to show off every inch and you have the body to pull it off, this is the shirt for you! Also be aware this is the 200 g/m2 weight. The Tech T is 150 and I think it's more suitable for summer weather. I'm going to exchange this for another Tech T or possibly Icebreakers "Icebreaker Men's Everyday Short Sleeve Crewe Top" shirt. Very happy with Icebreaker, but this particular shirt wasn't what I was looking for.

I somehow never seem to sweat when wearing this, be it in the heat of a Grand Canyon hike or a less thermally challenging hike. And then, the icing on the top is that I can hike for several days in it and it still won't stink. Truly awesome.
Best Deals for Icebreaker Men's Contour Short Sleeve Crewe Top
This shirt is well made and durable. Like any good merino wool product it wicks well, resists body odor, is comfortable against the skin, and helps regulate body temperature. This shirt gets worn and washed every week in a work environment that runs the range from near freezing to over 100F. It is wearing well and, if the other Ice Breaker shirts I have are any indication will last about three to four years at this pace.
Pros:
Wears well
Resists body odor
Regulates body temp well
versatile
Cons:
Special washing required (machine wash with downy then air dry)
Slower to dry than synthetics
Honest reviews on Icebreaker Men's Contour Short Sleeve Crewe Top
I just love the fit of this. The fit is snug and more on the athletic side (just like the picture). This will be my first time trying merino wool, so hopefully everything turns out good. But so far, I love the shirt.

The fit of this t-shirt is next to skin, if you order the size you are used to wearing in other t-shirts it will fit like an undershirt and will cling to every inch. I ordered a size up because of this and I really like the fit. That said this is a versatile shirt; I have worn it running in temps from mid 40s to mid 80s farenheit and it performs well in both. In the colder temps I use this as a base layer with other layers on top, in the hotter temps I wear it alone. It has all the properties of merino wool: it is supremely comfortable, it does not itch, does not stink (even when worn for days), and it is warm even when wet. I have several icebreaker shirts and they are all of equal quality, I recommend them highly.
