Description of CW-X VersatX 1/4-Zip Shirt - Long-Sleeve - Women's:
CW-X built a special conditioning web into the Women's VersatX 1/4-Zip Shirt that specifically targets the trapezius muscles and scapular bones of your upper back.

Bottom Line: The CW-X VersatX 1/4-Zip Shirt adds support while promoting posture and performance.
I bought this as layering piece and for biking in cold weather. It works great in keeping me warm and sweatless on bike rides and am sure it will hold up well doing the same as a base layer for skiing. However, it isn't a wind stopper and can be cold if one is just hanging out.
I am usually a medium and in ordering both the medium & small, ended up choosing the small. The small is form fitted and looks nice on my longish and thinish frame, the medium was a little baggy, which in this material isn't as flattering. The grey with stitching is a great color.
I would recommend this to a friend, especially if bought on SAC.
This is a perfect shirt to run or work out in, but I would recommend getting a size smaller than your normal size. I normally get smalls, but when I got the small in the mail it was really bunchy on my arms so I am returning it for an XS. The material is supposed to be very close to your skin. This is such a great shirt and I can't wait to wear my new one!
