This shirt had a comfortable fit - not too tight, not too loose. However, I thought it would be warmer - in addition to wearing it outside, I hoped it would keep me warm sitting in the office and it did not. Also, it didn't seem to absorb moisture very well, and instead stayed damp thus making me colder. For me, this isn't the best cold weather layer but more of a fall/spring weather layer. I wish Icebreaker had more options for warmer, thicker layers.

I love the weight of this. It's stretchy and very warm. I wear it on its own a lot. And it's nice enough to wear out in cadyal settings. I've even worn it to the office with a nice pair of pants (it does have the Icebreaker logo on the sleeve). It's also excellent ad a base layer. Keeps me warm and dry when I'm doing outdoor activities in winter. I will for sure buy this again.

First of all I love that these are 100% merino-so much harder to find these days. The fit of these is perfect and very true to size. It isn't constricting, allows normal movement and layers well under clothes. The length is great too. The 175 weight is slightly see through. It'd be nice to have it not be see through like some of the other brands I tried. The only thing I don't like is all the tags on the side. There are so many, they are long and irritate the skin. I'm not a fan of cutting tags off that have care instructions, but I had to with these. Overall, they are great lightweight base layers.

This base layer is awesome! I live near Shenandoah National Park and hike year round. This layer works well for me as a stand alone without a jacket when worn over a short sleeve layer. This works for fall and spring hiking around here. I add a jacket in the winter. I think it is very comfortable and a great weight. It washes well (I hang dry). I would love to see it in a fun color like deep purple. Don't stop making this Icebreaker!
I love matching the colour of my tops and bottoms for a monochrome look. I was somewhat disappointed to see that this season's tops in graphite colour were all made really short and did not fit me well. I decided to match the pants with this longer Crewe Thermal top and problem solved. Personally, I do not think the shorter length of several tops from this Season are very flattering or long enough to provide warmth for the colder weather ahead.
Absolutely love the tech 260, I wear one nearly every day in the winter. It has the same fit as the oasis but the material is a little thicker and I definitely notice the difference in warmth. Looks smart on its own - can wear for work or to a restaurant- but also great as a base layer when hiking or cycling. I am between an XS and S in icebreaker but as I prefer my clothes to be fitted I chose an XS. The cut is flattering and the material is good quality. Washes well and dries quickly. Mostly i only wash it after a week or two of daily wear because i feel i "ought" to and not because it looks or smells like it needs washing.
Until I was recommended to Icebreaker, we had tried various makes. These are without doubt the best. My husband works outside throughout the year and has an outdoors hobby. He loves these. Super warm and comfortable. The wash really well, never bobble or lose shape. Worth every penny as they last forever!
This is the most comfortable base layer or merino wool top I have ever put on. I know merino is amazing, and these days it's pretty darn soft; but still every other brand I've tried I do still feel a bit itchy and prickly in. Not this one! I haven't been itchy once. It keeps me warm, dry, and comfy layered under a fleece, puffy, and shell on cold winter hikes, and it's just thick enough (and gorgeous in the yellow color) that I wear this around as a regular sweater top sometimes all on it's own. It's expensive, but actually worth it. I would love another.
I have bought this product many times in different shades and wait each year for the 260 version to appear. It is my favorite go-to sweater! Yes, sweater...I live in Arizona but I tend to be a person who feels cold easily. So I wear this as an outer sweater instead of an undergarment. I love the snug feeling of the cozy wool ( never itchy) and I love how shapely it fits. It washes easily and always returns to its shape and maintains its color. Great for morning walks or going out at night to a performance or a restaurant. It is quite flexible with the right pairings.
I’m giving this crew a solid 4.75 stars. Its the perfect crew and I’m glad I have one in black… it goes with everything and I can multi-purpose for winter business casual under a jacket or a vest, hiking, running, etc. I’m 5’3”, 135lbs, b cup, and the small fits perfect. It washes and dries well, and you can’t beat merino for moisture wicking, temperature regulating, odor proof. Icebreaker knows what they are doing in terms of quality.However when it comes to base camp on a chilly night or a super cold day hike, I prefer the half zip for that added warmth of merino around my neck with out having to carry an extra article like a gator. I knew this was a consideration and I bought the crew because it’s more work-ready. But there might be a black half zip in my future.
