very pleased! i can now climb every mountain!
Warm, breathable.. sizing seemed appropriate.. I originally bought a small bc the other reviews mentioned it ran small, but I found that not to be the case -- had to return and get my usual size, extra small. Got the light green -- great color!

EL CAP SHIRT
love this shirt- bought a medium and I am usually a size 4-6. watch out because it does shrink if you dry it so make sure you hang dry.

Would not do without it
The Shirt is very comfortable to wear and fits the feminine body perfectly. Because it is moisture wicking and very breathable, I love to wear it on my runs, either as a base layer in cold weather or as a shirt in the spring when you walk a fine line between being cold or too hot during exercise.

Great weight for trail running.
I use this top for cross country skiing and for trail running, don't have to worry about sun exposure and the moisture wicking is great. I would not buy any active tops that don't have moisture wicking.

Excellent
The El Cap shirt fits well and provides much warmth. Anytime I head out I pull it on as an under layer. Shirt is also attractive and fits true to size.

Fits great. I took the advice from consumers and ordered one size larger than normal. I probably could've ordered my regular small size.

Excellent quality and light weight.
Love this multi purpose shirt which layers perfectly under a fleece jacket or looks great by itself. Will undoubtedly purchase this again.

Awesome shirt for a multitude of uses.
I've had the same shirt for over 7 years and wear around town, backpacking, a ski layer, etc. I always wash in cold and hang to dry; it is showing signs of wear now and I wanted one in another color so jumped at them on sale!

Lovely for casual wear
Top is quality made, fits well. Runs small. If you do not like fitted tops, order one size larger.

Great multi-purpose shirt
Love the El Cap shirt! I can wear another wicking layer below it, and add a fleece or jacket over that if needed. It also looks great alone with jeans for a casual/sporty look.

Great for layering!
this zip front shirt has been very useful as an underlayer for a fleece, or for an outer layer on a cool summer evening beside the cookstove. fit is good, snugs right up to my skin making the wicking feature work well. previous review recommendation is accurate: do not wash it with velcro/hook and loop closures, as it will readily snag the fabric of this shirt.

warm, wicking, lightweight, brilliant fit
the north face company has done it again! a lovely fit, comfortable fabric that feels good to the touch and wicks moisture when things heat up. the color is complimentary, even for last year's design. i will take the 'not near velcro' advice, as i can see the fabric would be suspectable to snagging if care is not taken.

Great 3 season shirt
Easy to wear in layers. Looks great alone,performs like the flight series line is suppose to. I had to have more than one of these because it's usually the shirt I reach for first. Runs small, order a larger size.

El Cap Shirt
I think I have become a "Northface Junkie!" I don't even go to the malls anymore because I find everything I need online !! We don't have a Northface store in our area, so it is very convenient to go online read the reviews regarding an item and then decide whether I would like to purchase it. Northface is the BEST !!

Great shirt @ a great price with fast service from Altrec.com!
This is the best shirt I own! I have 7 in different colors. It is multi functional, comfortable and good looking as well as great for 4 season wear. Its wicking properties make it great for keeping warm in cold weather and cool in hot weather, which is a necessity here with the varying Utah temps. The UPF 30+ keeps the sun off my arms and chest, which always seem to get sun exposure no matter how much and what type of sunscreen I apply. It's contoured fit is flattering; however it does run small, so order 1 size up. Also, if you have any velcro closures on your jacket or pants, keep these away from the shirt, as the velcro will snag the pique exterior finish of the shirt; it won't make a hole, but it will make pull marks on the outside of the shirt.

Wonderful shirt--flattering and comfortable
I received this shirt from our son for Christmas. I put it on the next day and have worn it many times since. Although I have an extenssive wardrobe, I choose this shirt most often. The style is attractive and it is extremely comfortable. In fact, I liked mine so well that I have ordered these shirts for our granddaughter and daughters-in-law, who love them. I plan to order a few more, in different colors for me. Buy one and try it--you'll love it.

Awsome Layer
I added this under a Hind Polar Arctic Top and was really warm and dry on my 10K training run in 22 degrees with 35 mph wind gusts. When I wear the Hind top alone I freeze after I stop running. It wicked the moisture away and kept me warm and dry. I'm going to buy 3 more!

Perfect All-Around Shirt!
I was in an accident when this shirt was cut off me at the hospital. Funny that all I could think of was getting another shirt like it and I did. It's the perfect shirt for layering and does an excellent job at moisture management. It's comfortable and feels great against the skin. It doesn't snag like others. I wear mine in winter trekking, mountain biking in cool temps, and even wear it on airplanes. The fit is comfortable without being tight and without bulk.
