I needed a long sleeve top that would be lightweight and keep me comfortable in Hawaii. This top was perfect for just that, it kept me warm when taking a helicopter tour and was great when hiking the mountains. This is a great top if you need something for when temps. drop into the 50s or 60s.

Got this for a really good price during the summer sale. For the money I really can't complain about it. Similar products from North Face and Under Armour work a lot better as moisture wicking fabrics but they also cost at least twice as much or more. Shirt works well enough wicking sweat from your body and at the same time the shirt dries very quickly. However, it still leaves my body feeling sticky (not so with my North Face shirt). Fits true to size in the upper body and arms, but feels too long even for a bicycing jersey.

Had a problem with my order and EMS customer service was AWESOME as always. Keep up the good work!

I really love this product. I don't just wear it for cycling...I wear it everywhere. I will be buying a couple more I think...too many colors to choose from. EMS great work on this one. It fits true to size and wicks like it is supposed to. Keeps me cool out on the trail and just enough to stop a chill on a chilly spring/summer night.

The shirt is very light weight but is warmer than I thought it was going to be for being the Techwick T1 which is supposed to be the lightest weight fabric. It also fits very loosly which I was not expecting, or used to, but it works.

light colors and long sleeves keep the sun off in warm weather
also good as a base layer in cold weather
combined with light nylon pants and a summertime cap flap to keep the sun of your neck you have the perfect outfit for hot weather
wicks well
one downside is the zipped collar doesn't lay flat easily

I wear these shirts to go go snorkeling and scuba diving for the sun protection and the fast drying after I get out of the water. I also wear them for any activity in which I would sweat but yet want full sleeve sun protection. I wear these on the hottest Florida Summer days to those infrequent cold days as an underlayer. You want one if not 6 or 8 in your collection.

The EMS Techwick line has become my favorite inner layer for both warm and cool days. The finish of the shirt really sets this line apart - seams are smoothly finished on the inside, so the shirt doesn't chafe under additional layers.

This is the fourth generation of this shirt that I've owned, and each time around the shirt seems to improve on a good thing.

The only thing I miss in the current line is a shade of blue.

perfect shirt for a giant neck

Feels true to size
Pros:
Breathable, Lightweight
Best Uses:
Backpacking, Camping, Casual Wear, Hiking
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

This is generally a very good shirt, as I expected from my experience with the techwick shortsleeve t-shirts. But what's going on with the neck? I'm wearing a large, and though it fits everywhere else, I think I'd have to have a 20 inch neck for this thing to even come close to fitting when it's zipped up. With a 16 inch neck I'm used to shirts being a little big, but this is ridiculous. so it's a bit difficult to get the collar not to look silly. But I'm giving 4 stars anyway, because I love the techwick so much and it fits great everywhere else. If you've got a giant neck, this is the perfect shirt for you.

I love this shirt- I bought several in different colors. Perfect for when it's too warm for a heavy sweater or a fleece. I wear them as a stylish alternative to a sweater, and of course while sweating it up backpacking, skiing, or jogging.

I formerly purchased UnderArmor and Nike brand shirts as undershirts and workout/cycling shirts. The Techwick shirts, in my opinion, are a lot more comfortable and cheaper than the others. These shirts do not snag up as easy as the other shirts I have purchases. The Techwick shirts seem more durable. I have purchased quite a few of them and will purchase more in the future. [...] It wicks sweat off quickly and keeps you dry and I sweat a lot (probably too much info). I use them to workout, cycling, as undershirts for work, and general shirts during the weekends. I have purchase the short sleeve shirts and the long sleeve shirts with the zip up collar. The zip up collar is not a good shirt for an undershirt at work though. I like how the shirts are not tight. Eventhough I am semi-physically fit, I cannot and should not wear the tight fitting shirts. Hope this helps.
