Customer Reviews Smartwool Intraknit Merino 200 Crew

I have a past season top and this one has a much more plastic feel. Smartwool always on sale now so I think the quality has decreased and cheaper materials being used

I bought this along with 2 other pieces of undergarments trusting most reviews that this would be made from high quality merino wool and would therefore reduces the itch. I love merino products as they were super warm and comfortable but not these few pieces. I washed them twice before bring them with me on a trip and the first part of the trip my body itches and at one point rashes developed. I'm forced to bought different thermals in the middle of my trip (different brand merino wool) and my skin settled down somewhat. I spend close to $370 after tax for 3 items which I couldn't use and even if I do get store credit from their satisfaction guarantee, it is still a waste of my money since I won't be able to use their other products containing merino wool. With their prices, go somewhere else that uses higher quality merino wool that would actually reduces the itch factor.

Loved the color and appearance but after wearing it just one evening, the sleeve had two large snags that I had no idea where they came from. Just wore it a second time and again one large snag on the arm and two smaller ones in front. Would not recommend even at a lesser price.

I returned this since it was too small. I don't like clothes that tight especially on my arms.

The arms are about two sizes too small for the rest of the garment. There's a weird pinching that happens at the armpit seems. Which is so not like the normal base layers. It was also very itchy, in a way that the wool never is. Also, the color is much darker in person than it is in the pictures. And honestly I don't mind the color, but I don't care for being so different from the pictures. Just very uncomfortable and I'm surprised that it sells.
