The Hanes white v-neck managed to be a wardrobe staple in my volleyball playing high school years. These days, I don’t wear much cotton because I sweat a lot and also occasionally wear the same shirt for days filled with many sweaty activities on end. Finding that perfect non-cotton t-shirt that fits just like that Hanes tee has been hard, but somehow, Patagonia managed to do it with the Patagonia Merino Daily T.
Like down jackets, one thing you can never have too much of is merino wool shirts! I mean, these thing get holes so quickly, owning about a million is really just prolonging the life of the shirt or something. At least that’s what I tell myself. When it comes to merino wool, I take the purchase whatever’s cheapest and in my size which means lots of crew necks and never any nice, fitted V-necks… until the Woolx Mia Lightweight V-Neck T-Shirt came along!

[sn] super.natural is an emerging player in the natural fibers garment game in the United States.
I got my hands on the [sn] super.natural W Base Tee 140 to test over the last month. This shirt has seen my office, airplanes, rafting in Idaho, the Eastern Sierra, and more. Launched in 2012, this brand is a fairly new player in the outdoor garment game, but the quality is fantastic.
I’m not quite sure why it’s taken me so long to write about Icebreaker’s Tech T Lite. This shirt is a staple in my closet. It goes everywhere. Not the same one though, at least not usually.
Made of 150gm merino wool like the Icebreaker Aero Tank, the Tech T Lite lives up to its name! This can be layered other clothes or worn on its own. The idea of wearing multiple t-shirts on top of each other has never appealed to me, so this one braves the world solo.
When it comes to selecting shirts for adventuring, I have a tendency to pick merino wool over synthetic. But every once in a while, there’s a synthetic top that catches my eye and tickles my fancy. Right now, it’s the Outdoor Research Ignitor Tee!
