Fit Tip

Fit Tip for the Men's Capilene 2 T Shirt: true to fit, great light weight base layer.

Description

Patagonia: Men's Capilene 2 T Shirt - Altrec.com Product Description:

The open, highly breathable knit and feathery weight of Capilene® 2 affords unhindered airflow, excellent wicking for endurance activities in warm to moderate temperatures--it's also our fastest-drying Capilene®. Because of its low-bulk design and streamlined fit, Capilene® 2 also acts an excellent layering piece beneath Capilene® 3 or 4 during colder weather. The curvilinear construction provides an updated, fast-forward fit, with seams that won't chafe under a pack or climbing sling. Made of quick-wicking, fast-drying 54% post-consumer recycled (and 100% recyclable) Capilene® 2 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.

Irwin Reimer - 2008-02-12
The shirts are very nice. I originaly purchased three other shirts but the fabric was so light weight that I returned them and purchased two of these shirts. I like them but I was still concerned about the weight. I am 61 years old & not into runing, however I still do cardo work at the health club. It would be great if they made this shirt in a heaver fabric.

Superb base layer! One of the primary reasons I bought the new capilene was Patagonia's new anti-odor treatment 'Gladiodor', which uses a treatment derived from chitin, from shellfish shells (cool!). I'm happy to report that this treatment works. In the past couple of months I've used this shirt mainly trail running, but also casually. The funk has been no worse than it would have been with a cotton shirt. This is a huge improvement on previous incarnations of capilene, which developed an exceptionally awful stench in a relatively short time. The fit is slightly formed, not a complete bag, and looks nice. The material is very open weave and breathes exceptionally well, yet still manages to retain some insulative capacity (not much;, the heavier capilenes insulate more, as intended). Very sastisfied with this purchase. Bravo Patagonia!
