Great base for warm hunts

Fabric breathes great to keep moisture from building up and seems to do a great job of not holding odor (at least to my human nose). I use it as the exposed layer if I am moving or the base layer for sitting on warmer days with a wind blocker on top.

As Advertised

I’ve been really impressed with the Sitka Optifade Core Lightweight Crew. The fabric just feels good; light, soft, and not clingy at all. Hunting in the Texas heat can be brutal, but this hoodie has honestly made a big difference in keeping me comfortable out there.

Amazing gear! Especially during dynamic movements and stressful situations.

43, 6’0”, 190 lbs. I put Sitka’s short sleeve crew and Guard Light pants to the test during wildfire prep in Brantley County Georgia while relocating post-Navy retirement. Not exactly a casual trial run. Held up flawlessly. No odor, no bugs, no discomfort. Just solid, reliable gear that stayed comfortable all day. It all started after I stopped by the Atlanta store at The Battery, and got great help from Chris, and that sealed it. Big fan now. If you’re military or first responder, get on GOVX. The discount is ridiculous. Sitka backs it up with quality and service.

Great shirts

I have several of these in different camo and colors. Super comfortable, light weight, and prevent odor. I wear one all archery season so I don't get odors on my wool baselayers.

Love this shirt!

The most lightweight and breathable T-shirt I own. I use this under all of my other Sitka midlayers. I'm usually a medium and I get most Sitka tops in a Large. They often run slightly on the big side but I'm okay with that.

Great shirt

These shirts are fantastic. I use them as my next to skin base layer on every hunt. On hot hunts, I like to put a core lightweight hoodie over one of these shirts, and these shirts work very well as a next to skin layer on cold hunts. No matter how many of these you might have, there is always room for another.
