Very good product.
Excellent product and worth every dime you spend! Very warm and does not irritate my skin. A good fit as well. Two suggestions...1. laundering information and 2. put a small pocket on the chest area. Other than that, I am very pleased with this purchase.

Large textured sheer.
Overall a good fit. Not a tight/stretched forearm/wrist Fitment the photo would have you think. Definitely more relaxed fit. We will see after washing. But 100% poly shouldn’t shrink much. Length is good, textured fabric and seam construction is good. Fabric is sheer. You can see through it. So it’s ether a base layer needing a cover up or an over layer needing something under it. Being larger grid fabric it should breathe well. Not sure about warmth holding being so open/sheer. Next winter will tell. Likely will layer under a T. Or over a stretchy base. Sale price is appropriate value.

Great fit, looks like it could be cotton
The fit of the shirt is perfect; this is the happy medium between loose fitting and skin-tight clothing. I'm wearing a medium size, and I'm 5'9" tall, 165 lb, 39" chest, 32" waist for reference. I was worried that the shirt was polyester and NOT cotton. A lot of polyester clothing has a tacky shininess to it. However, if you see this in real life, and maybe you can tell from the pictures, but it looks like it can pass for cotton. The shirt is pretty low friction, and combine that with the thumb loops, and it makes it really easy to slip outerwear on top. The thumb loops are stretchy/elastic, and they retract back into the sleeve when not in use. In terms of looks and fashion, the shirt exudes a simple, no-nonsense, clean dad sort of look. The seams look nice and add character to an otherwise plain shirt. One important thing to note is that there are two VERY DIFFERENT styles to choose from: the square waffles, and the diamond waffles. The negative reviews all seem to stem from the diamond patterned waffles. The one I have on is the square patterned waffles. The one thing people have been saying negatively about this thermal, and it's true, is that the cloth is relatively thin and lightweight. However, it still somehow does a surprisingly good job of keeping warm air in and cold air out. I've tested this outdoors while running, and while my hands were getting numb from the cold, I was still warm. I'll update this review later if the shirt gets any wear and tear over time.

Literally My Favorite Shirt - I Want One For Each Day of the Week
First, I've tried to attach a few pics to generally show what the fit is like -- a little loose for a thermal layer but in a comfortable way while still being plenty warm. I'm built a little big right now, and please forgive the blur, it was tough to get a good angle and take a pic the shirt on myself. That said, I also included two pics, flash and without, to show the waffle pattern. I saw a few reviews which mentioned that this shirt no longer was shipping with with waffle pattern and instead some cheap poly-based material. This is false, at least for the black one I ordered. This is by far the most comfortable base layer shirt I've ever owned, I want to wear this all day, every day. The only reason I haven't gone back and bought literally five more of these is because I'm in the process of loosing weight and not sure if I'll still be an XL or go down to an L when I'm finished. Otherwise, if you're looking at this shirt, just buy the damn thing. The fit, material, quality of build, price for what you get... everything I could comment on is 10/10. One of my favorite shirts in my wardrobe, and will be buying enough for me to wear one every day of the week once I get down to my weight goal. LOVE THIS SHIRT!

I Love This Shirt!
I love this shirt! I bought the men’s small rather than a women’s cut and and it fits perfectly. (5’4 115 lbs.)! It’s not like the traditional ones that are very form fitting, these are cut looser, very comfortable to wear and very soft. I have already ordered this in 2 more colors. Its not only great under cold weather clothes either! I wear it with jeans and it looks really good and so comfy! NOTE: FYI this shirt is also available in “Carhartt Black”. In the available colors you’ll see “Black” then you’ll see another called “Carhartt Black”. I mistakenly bought that one as well however the Carhartt Black is not the same as the shirt i’m reviewing! It is Their older version and is made of 100% cotton (This shirt is 100% poly.,) but interestingly the 100% poly shirt feels softer. The Carhartt Black is cut longer and is a lot more form fitting. I’m exchanging the Carhartt Black, it’s not at all what i’m looking for, and purchasing this in regular “Black” instead. Hope that helps explain the difference in the 2 “blacks” listed under colors.

I find them to be a little bit short in the sleeves but otherwise as expected. A good medium base layer.
