Columbia Women's i2o Turtleneck

love my i2o
February 17, 2012

I gave this turtleneck 4 stars because of the tight fit across the chest - and I ordered it xl - but I still like the style and the fact that the inside is fleece and very warm. I layered it over my thermal shirt and I'm able to actually wear either my fleece jacket or a full zip sweatshirt with that and if I need to, my vest. I ordered the grill color which is like gray and the eclipse blue which is more like a purple color - fortunately, I have a purple sweatshirt that matched it perfectly! Definitely recommend. Just make sure you size up.

Great turtlenect

I love this turtleneck. It fits perfect, is so soft and comfortable and most important warm. Not binding anywhere. In fact I'm ordering another one! I wear it outside in cold and windy conditions (windchill around 0) and I stay toasty warm. I get cold easy and this turtleneck keeps me warm.

Too Tight Across Chest
December 27, 2011

The fabric of this top is like a midweight under layer and could be nice for very specific body types. I normally wear a women's large, and usually need tall sizes for sleeve length. This top in size large could work for sleeve length but it is extremely tight across the chest, under the arms, to the point that it is not wearable. I tried it on and almost panicked trying to get it back off. I am 5' 9", 140 pounds.

i2o t-neck: my ideal baselayer
December 17, 2011

I usually avoid turtlenecks like the plague because they never seem to fit me right--too tight at neck, too loose in the torso, sleeves too short--but Columbia got the i2o turtleneck just right for my lean body type. This thing is so comfortable you can sleep in it (and I have!). It's body-hugging without being constricting in any way. The neck is long enough to fold over or pull up, and the stretchy thin fleece fabric is very forgiving AND insulating. The sleeves are nice and long, which I like, although I will say that if you have big arms you might find them tight. Glad to see the new colors this season. For reference, I'm 5'6" 120# and the Small is a perfect fit.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE this!

This is the most comfortable shirt I have ever worn- I did not realize the amazing material on the inside of the shirt, but when I put it on I felt as if I was cuddled in a blanket in this ultra thin shirt! I LOVE this shirt!!!
