This and the Oasis BF200 are my two favorite Icebreakers. I wear it for running and snowshoeing and appreciate the zip ventilation. I found it far more comfortable than the altitude zip (no annoying arm seams) and just slightly looser. It's still very flattering/formfitting but not painted on. I was really skeptical about the anti-stink claim but it's true. I wear my shirts many times before I wash them and only then because I think they must be dirty, not because they seem so.

For me, this sweater didn't fit at all. The arms were too short and it gapped between the armpit and chest. I really wanted it to work but it just isn't flattering.

I admit I am completely addicted to Icebreaker. Like all Icebreakers, you get incredible comfort, a stylish fit, no stinkiness and easy care. I usually wear a medium but find that some of the 320s run a little on the large side. That would be the case for this one. I comfortably wear the small and even though I'm tall and always have length issues, the arms are easily long enough. However, it's not likely I'll wear bulky layers underneath.

It's ridiculous that this product is called wool when it only has 10%. I wish that BCO would have included that bit of information in the description somewhere as I certainly wouldn't have wasted my money on the shipping! Aside from the wool issue, I wasn't even all that impressed with the overall product. It's reminiscent of a cheap sweatshirt; the fabric didn't feel nice and it's bulky.

I'm fortunate enough to have the Icebreaker store 5 minutes from my house so I can try things on. The 2006 version of this shirt runs significantly larger than 07/08. I wear a medium in all of their products but the 07/08 was too small; it was too tight in the chest and the sleeves were too short. Even though the 2006 is a little loose, it's still flattering and incredibly comfortable. I was also impressed that this 190 weight product isn't see through at all, even when trying on with a white undergarment.

This and the tech top are my two favorite Icebreakers. This one is so flattering and comfortable. I wear it as often as I can. I was really skeptical about the anti-stink claim but it's true. I wear my shirts many times before I wash them and only then because I think they must be dirty, not because they seem so.

I ordered the graphite/pumice and was disappointed with the color; the gray looks like faded black- not a pretty gray. I also wasn't fond of the fit. It was a bit too sloppy for me. I prefer the shapeliness of Icebreaker tops.

I really do love Icebreaker but this isn't my favorite. There multiple seams in the arm bothered me. Not only are there seams where the color changes, but also on the outside of the upper arm. I actually ended up returning it despite the great price.
