Customer Reviews Smartwool Merino 250 Base Layer Crew

This crew shirt makes a great underlayer for cold days and breathes very well

Favorite cool weather layer for outdoor activities and around town and even to work under a sweater! Love all the colors!

I use this shirt for ranch work when it's cold. It's warm, breathable, and comfortable. Not scratchy. Thanks SmartWool! #sweepstakes

Great fit, material and price!

I love these sweaters so much and have many. They're cozy and warm and not itchy at all to me. I air dry them so they last and continue to look smooth and not pilly, but the moths!!! I seal them in ziplocs immediately each spring.

After a couple of sea kayaking trips off Vancouver Island I discovered that close fitting merino beats fleece for warmth. Fog penetrates everything and close fitting merino is the best way to stay dry and warm. Whether under a dry suit or wearing to bed in a damp sleeping bag, merino is the way to go. This last 10 day trip was mostly rain and fog and I don't think I would have stayed warm and happy without my smartwool merino top and bottom. Wore them all 10 days. Also, merino packs down smaller than fleece and that is an important consideration when trying to fit everything in a sea kayak for 10 days including 63 litres of water.

Awesome! Going to be buying more before winter!

Another awesome base layer choicelove that I can wear over several days while traveling through remote towns when it's hard to find a laundry.

This top is 100% merino wool, perfect for chilly days in the Pacific Northwest. It's soft and very comfortable. Beautiful weave, too.

Nice, I did not purchase the yellow color, but the black and blue one instead and it is nice. I plan to wear this under black / or blue scrubs this winter, also will wear it as a base layer for skiing, or under a down vest when hiking. Smart wool tops for me are such a staple. They are very comfortable, long enough to tuck in, and are warm yet breathable. I have several of these. #sweepstakes

I use it as a base layer under fleece or as a sweater in mildly cool weather. It is great for travel when you expect some changeable weather since it is not bulky to pack

Super comfortable and versatile! As it is 100% merino wool, it doesn't get smelly, is soft, and great for temperature regulation. One can dress it up for the office, but also great for hiking, baselayer for skiing, and everything else. I have a couple of these long-sleeves and love them.

Great weight and feel, wonderful color!

Amazing to car camp &sleep in, no more sweating/ waking up wet

I love these and use them both as base layers and top / outer layers. While not cashmere, they are pretty soft with a minimal itch factor against the skin, and none when a light (say, silk) under garment is worn. The variety of colors and patters are fun, and the warmth was appreciated when using as a base layer in the high Arctic.

Bought for my wife. She seems to like it.

They are so comfortable ! I can wear in warm day and cool night ! I wear them in Hawaii and Nepal !

LOVE this base layer for running in the fall, winter and spring! It is perfect. I asked my boyfriend to pick from three colors and he picked the berry color and I love it. Also love that this is 100% wool.

I wore this with a tee shirt over it (plus coat), went from 30F to 50F in one day and didn't sweat *too* much when it got warm. Felt very light that I wasn't sure I'd be warm enough at the lower end of the temperature spectrum but I was!

It's so soft & comfortable.

Love, love, love this base layer. Gorgeous color blue and perfect for traveling to layer and keep warm but looks great as is with jeans too.

She loves it. She wears it about everywhere, even to church.

I bought several of these tops this winter and was pleasantly surprised how comfortable they were. Wore one in Patagonia on a trip and it kept me cozy warm in the mountains on hikes. Never smelled during three weeks. Washes well, recommend hang dry only.

Love the color. Fits well

I wear these almost everyday in the winter (even to the office) and have amassed a variety of colors to prove it! I followed the size chart and the fit as I expected for a base layer. I LOVE that they are 100% WOOL NO synthetics so they don't stink after a workout or a day on the slopes! The quality is great, warm, and soft. Worth every penny. My only complaint was that Moonbeam was not a true white/off white like it looked in the photo, but the return was easy.
