Silky-soft Capilene® 1 is the lightest of all our technical baselayers. A master at managing moisture to keep you cool during active use in warm to sweltering conditions, it also helps protect from the sun and acts as an excellent quick-wicking baselayer beneath heftier Capilene®or wool insulation when the mercury plummets. Made from 100% post-consumer recycled (and 100% recyclable) Capilene® 1 polyester, with Gladiodor natural odor control. Made in USA. Common Threads Recycling ProgramResearch shows that the environmental impact of recycling worn-out Capilene base layers into new polyester fiber is significantly lower than making that same fiber from virgin materials. Taking into account that worn-out garments are diverted from trash incinerators, making new polyester fiber from recycled garments results in an energy savings of 76% and a CO2 emissions [greenhouse gasses] reduction of 71%, versus creating that fiber from new raw material. Capilene® Core Performance®Capilene base layers afford quick-drying, next-to-skin moisture management for all activities in all conditions ? from high-altitude bivies to sun-soaked water sports.

Good update
Updated with environmentally friendly odor protection. Cut longer than previous versions, and seems to be just a tad tighter through the chest and shoulders. Still my favorite shirt.
Love the feel!
I have tried other brands, but this is my favorite.Purchased primarily for hiking, but use it all the time.Great material!
Super wicking!
This shirt is great for hot weather running. It wicks like no other shirt I have ever had.
best you can own
I used to work for patagonia in Sydney and got 3 of these silkweight capiline tshirts for staff clothing...11years ago! Look like i bought them yesterday. I think they are alien shirts for lasting so long and i play hard all over the world from outback to NZ mountains, harsh sun on the sea in the islands, to N & S America. Best shirt in the universe.
Good wicking layer
Purchased for use in Florida as a walk/run shirt. Has been great at wicking moisture and keeping as comfortable as possible for Florida.
