This practically translates to thickness The lightest shirts come in at 100 g/m while the thickest could be as high as 400 g/m (the tops reviewed range from 165 to 250 g/m) This allows shoppers to more easily compare across brands or to pieces they already own The marketers of synthetics have also tried to do this although not as precisely Their tops are usually classified as light mid or expedition weight from thinnest to thickest Comparison however is not always well calibrated between brands Patagonia uses their own system for the Capilene line that ranges from 1 to 4 that can provide some guidance if you have one of their shirts on hand Whatever way you choose to measure it you will still eventually have to decide which thickness you need We suggest the thinnest tops for the heat of summer and vigorous activities The usefulness of expedition weight layers may not extend far outside winter or low exertion stuff like ice fishing For this review we selected mostly midweight shirts that should function in a broader range of situations Criteria for Evaluation We did our best to compare each product using objective and measurable criteria However in some areas like styling and comfort this can be difficult When deciding which base layer to get your personal preferences should be more important than our opinions Consider your own body type and intended uses as well For more guidance on how to go about this process please see our article How To Choose the Best Long Underwear and Base Layer Tops
Sometimes winter climbing involves gymnastic stretches In this instance the Under Armour Base 20 performed wellCredit: Drew Smith Warmth Warmth is an important consideration when selecting long underwear but it should not be the only consideration After all if warmth were all that mattered we would all be sweltering in down one-piece jumpsuits Rather warmth must be combined with breathability to create an effective layer that can be worn comfortably when active or at rest Consider these two variables when selecting the best shirt for your intended use High exertion activities or warmer temperatures may be better enjoyed in a lower warmth scoring product Just like Goldilocks' porridge long underwear should not be too hot or too cold but just right For our purposes warmth was measured without consideration for weight Each piece was rated according to the insulation they provide relative to the other products in this review Generally wool layers were warmer for their weight than the synthetic counterparts Apart from the 60% cotton Duofold Midweight Crew all the other shirts will insulate when wet Complicating this evaluation criterion are tops with hoods high collars and thumb loops Each of these features increases warmth and versatility effectively making the garment wearable in a wider range of temps These features however also add weight and bulk and do affect the styling They may not be desirable for everyone in a next-to-skin layer or for those with insulating or shell layers that also include these designs Activities with lots of stop and go energy output like backpacking or climbing are ideal uses for tops with more of these temperature regulation options Many of the crew neck tops tested are also available in versions with some or all of these features See the 'Other Versions or Accessories' section of each individual review to find out The hood closure on the Patagonia Capilene 4 Expedition Weight 1/4 Zip Hoody covers to just below the mouth This lets you stay warm without getting a moist or frozen shirtCredit: Drew Smith Breathability Breathability is the yin to warmth's yang While lying on the couch who doesn't love warm cozy clothing But when on the move your body starts to warm up and that heat needs to escape or you will be trapped in a nightmare of sweat This is where breathability becomes important Defined as the ability of a fabric to allow moisture vapor to pass through it; a breathable shirt will allow the moist air produced from perspiration to escape through the material and into the environment without saturating the fabric The simple design of the Patagonia Cap 3 Crew (Red) was ok at keeping you warm during a break as long as the sun was out Notice the tester in the more breathable Icebreaker Oasis (black) doesn't need to take breaks (or organize his pack.)Credit: Drew Smith The products we tested would all be considered breathable when compared to the laminated fabrics of waterproof shells where this property is much more important and variable If your intended use requires you to frequently wear one of those shells such as cold weather kayaking or fishing then the performance of your long underwear in this area is not very significant Additionally keep in mind that because these tops are so breathable they will not offer any protection from wind For blustery conditions they will have to be paired with a hard/softshell or one of the ultra-light nylon wind shirts that are beginning to gain popularity Among the shirts reviewed however there were notable differences The highest scoring in breathability was the Under Armour Base 20 whose thin checkerboard fabric released moist air better than any others The merino wool options also performed well and took longer to absorb moisture or feel wet than the synthetics of comparable thickness On The North Face Expedition Long Sleeve Zip Neck the combination of thick synthetic fabric and tight fit resulted in the worst breathability Drying Speed Getting wet in the outdoors is unavoidable Whether it is from precipitation outside or sweat from within your long underwear will eventually get wet and when it does the time that it takes to dry can have a significant impact on your comfort and warmth Many of these products advertise proprietary technologies that speed drying like the waffled Polartec Power Dry fabric of the Patagonia Capilene 4 Expedition Weight 1/4 Zip Hoody or the Moisture Transport System on Under Armor's Base 20 To cut through the baloney we conducted an air dry test to measure each shirt's time to dry in a controlled setting
The air dry test From left to right: Duofold Midweight Crew Icebreaker Oasis Under Armour Base 20 Patagonia Merino 2 Lightweight Henley Patagonia Capilene 3 Crew Patagonia Capilene 4 Expedition Weight 1/4 Zip Hoody The North Face Expedition Long Sleeve Zip Neck and the Smartwool NTS Mid 250 CrewCredit: Jack Cramer This experiment was straightforward: we got all the tops completely soaked hung them up and watched how long it took them to dry It was as boring as it sounds The times we measured were not important in absolute terms Your shirts will not be drying at the same temperature or humidity and probably will have a warm body to assist the process Rather it was the performance of each shirt relative to the others that was significant For this reason in our reviews we have changed the time in hours we recorded to a percentage comparable to the best or worse finisher We think this is more fair and useful Keep in mind though that some of the tight fitting tops like the Under Armor Base 20 might have performed even better with the fabric stretched over a body creating more space for air to pass between fibers instead of simply being hung on a hanger From that experiment we came to one conclusion that now seems logical and obvious,
new balance 574 leather; thin fabrics dry faster than thicker fabrics The Patagonia Merino 2 Lightweight Henley was the winner in this test and also happened to be the thinnest layer It dried in less than half the time of the worst performers Across all of the layers tested thickness was a better predictor of performance than material or advertised features This should be an important (and common sense) consideration for retail shoppers and heavy sweaters Our air dry test also corroborated merino wool manufacturers' claims that wool can absorb up to 30% of its own weight in moisture before feeling wet to the touch Before starting the test each of the shirts had to get soaked The merino wool layers resisted and had to be physically agitated underwater before they would become fully saturated Layering Ability
The contrasting zippers of The North Face Expedition Long Sleeve Zip Neck (grey) and the Patagonia Capilene 4 Expedition Weight 1/4 Zip Hoody (blue) The Patagonia zipper is much more burlyCredit: Jack CramerAll of these tops can function well as a next-to-skin layer in the right conditions some can also be worn over other garments should the situation warrants The Patagonia Cap 4 Hoody and the
TNF Expedition Long Sleeve stand out as the best over-the-top layering choices in this review In fact one tester preferred to use these thick shirts in this way They both have a zipper which we like for ventilation but they make them a little less comfortable on the skin Besides the Merino 2 Henley's button neck the rest of the field is crew necks that work best either next to the skin over just a thin t-shirt or tank The Under Armor Base 20 was the exception Its form fit prevents it from being comfortable on top of anything else This category did not impact the overall review too much because it is not a true requirement for a base layer Therefore it only accounted for 10% of the overall score Durability The high cost of some of these pieces makes durability an important consideration All are quality made and performed well in this category There were no obvious failures in fabric or stitching When examined from a long term view however it becomes likely that the synthetic options will outlast their wool counterparts One of the testers liked to joke that merino wool layers make great golf shirts because pretty soon they all have 18 holes This is certainly an exaggeration but we did find the fabric more susceptible to scrapes and abrasion The explanation for this is that the greater warmth of wool for the weight allows it to be sewn into a thinner garment then a comparably warm synthetic,
new balance black and brown; predictably durability suffers Surface pilling starting on the sleeves of the Under Armour Base 20Credit: Jack CramerAnother drawback of wool is the potential for shrinkage if laundered incorrectly but if you don't toss it in the dryer on high then this is not a concern Conversely wool is more durable in the sense that it doesn't absorb unpleasant odors; therefore it shouldn't have to be washed as often The synthetic options all scored well on durability; so you can wash the stench they attract off without fear of wearing through the fabric This longevity adds to their already superior value A higher durability rating for some of these tops generally coincided with a greater thickness Comfort and Fit A base layer's comfort and fit should probably be the most important selection factor but unfortunately it is also the most subjective to evaluate For this review we tried to consult with testers from a range of body types and interests to fairly assess what is often a personal opinion Small details like the pattern of stitching or a piece's tendency to hold a static charge became important considerations The amount a top rose at the waist with arms overhead which untucked the shirt and exposed the stomach to cold was another objective measure we explored Subtle difference in the shoulder stitching of the Smartwool NTS Mid 250 Crew (tan) and the Icebreaker Oasis (blue) The more comfortable curved stitching on the Smartwool was the deciding difference between these two great layersCredit: Jack CramerIn the end most of the tested products performed quite well They all are sewn with flatlock seams which don't overlap and are far less likely to chafe than the coverstitch of a regular t-shirt This may not help you differentiate between any of the layers in this review but it is important to consider should you do some shopping outside our selections The fabrics used were all soft and cozy although more of our testers preferred merino wool to synthetics However the unique fleece lining of TNF Long Sleeve was the exception and was universally recognized as the comfiest Subtle differences in the pattern of the shoulder stitching on the Smartwool NTS Mid 250 Crew made it more comfortable to wear with a pack than the Icebreaker Oasis This became an important factor in the close competition between these two excellent tops for best overall base layer and illustrates the level of detail we sometimes have to go into to make decisions The only real loser in the comfort and fit metric was the Base 20 Several testers felt it unpleasantly constricted their armpits causing chafing and irritation Editors' Choice Award: Smartwool NTS 250 Crew Smartwool NTS Mid 250 Crew Price: Varies from $66 - $95 Compare prices at 6 resellers Read the review After all the blood sweat and testing we were able to choose one clear winner merino wool and specifically the Smartwool NTS Mid 250 Crew Merino wool's advantages over synthetics in warmth and breathability make it our favorite long underwear fabric and the NTS 250 Crew's stylish construction and attention to detail bring it out on top Jack Cramer in the casual occasion appropriate Smartwool NTS Mid 250 Crew on the South rim of the Grand CanyonCredit: Dave Cramer We particularly like the slim-fit waist (which helps it stay down when active) the gentle stretch of its 250 g/m wool and the design of the shoulder (no stitching where a pack might rub) These details place it slightly ahead of the Icebreaker Oasis another great top that deserves mention for finishing #1B rather than second Some of the others are more versatile or better suited for a particular use but if we could only have one base layer the NTS 250 Crew would be it Best Buy Award: Patagonia Capilene 3 Midweight Crew Patagonia Capilene 3 Crew Price: $55 List Read the review Taking home the prize for best value in our base layer review is Patagonia Capilene 3 Crew This top includes many of the qualities we like about the higher scoring merino wool pieces but at nearly half the price Additionally it fits well and received the second highest score in durability The polyester-based Capilene fabric is soft against the skin and will not irritate those with wool allergies The hidden thumb loops it includes give the wearer the option of greater warmth without any aesthetic issues Although its score was only good enough for 5th overall the absolute difference between it and the highest performers was marginal That along with its position as an outlier on our Price-Value Chart are the reasons it ultimately takes home the Best Buy Award
