Very warm and soft.

Great layering piece. 6’1” 200lbs. Athletic build. Bought an XL and it is comfortable with a t shirt or lightweight layer underneath. Body is long so tucking it in is no problem.

warmth

The fit and quality of construction is all good as expected. I understand it's a layer, however its really no warmer than a heavyweight long sleeve t-shirt. Got to say I'm disappointed in the warmth and wind resistance the garment provides.

Great base layer

Quality base layer holds body warmth, wicks sweat when active, and doesn’t hold any odor after weeks of full days on the water.

Perfect in cooler conditions

This is a great piece when you are still hunting in cooler temps. It is definitely the base layer you want during the late season. Extremely comfortable and perfect fit in medium if you are in the 155-160 range.

Perfect cold weather base layer

Warm, perfect for frigid temps, combined with good wind resistant shell and an insulation layer kept me warm in the teens without bulk or restricted movement. Kept moisture away so I didn't feel classy after hiking to my stand.

Warm and sheds moisture/sweat

Wore this over my base layer merino top. I then wore a fleece sweatshirt and my down parka. Kept me perfectly warm standing on the side of the mountain in Wyoming watching a ski race. I was in the shade, standing in a foot of snow, with 15 mph winds. Never once did my top get cold. I shed my parka after hiking back up and the two merino wool base layers quickly shed any moisture I had, while still keeping me warm. The cutout to put your thumb through is a game changer. It allows the base layer to sit under the cuff of your glove, and also keeps it in place when adding and removing layers. I can't wait to use this on an elk hunt next winter/fall. It would be perfect as a standalone base layers in mid season and as a 2nd layer like I did for late season. I got a XXL and it fits slightly loose on me, which is what I wanted as I'm mostly using it above another layer of skin-tight merino.

Nice layering piece

The 1/2 zip is something I would purchase again, only in a solid. I love my heavyweight hoodie, but the half zip feels thinner and yet somehow warmer. Thumbholes in cuffs are nice. The chest pocket is deep, unlike the small one on heavyweight hoodie. I cant speak to the warm when wet aspect but it has been nice and warm the last 2. 5 days I've worn it hunting in 30-40 degree rainy weather.

Base layer top

The Sitka heavy weight base layer top is the best base layer I have ever worn. The inside material against your skin is soft and very comfortable. The top fits perfectly conforming to your body stretching and moving with you while keeping its shape even after several days of wear. The stand up collar keeps the chill off your neck while the half zip top allows you to keep from overheating and sweating while moving to and from your stand when le wearing heavier outer layers. The convenience of being able to wash this base layer with your regular laundry with no special instructions is a big plus. I would definitely purchase this item again.

Core Merino is Core gear

Bought the Core Merino hoody and loved it so much I decided to get the half zip too. Wear it when it's not as windy and I don't need anything for my head. Much better than the core heavyweights in that they don't feel so "wooly" when I wear them. I love them.
