      Comments about Eastern Mountain Sports EMS Women's Power Stretch 1/2 Zip:

      This is an exceptional & essential winter piece! It hugs the body providing a nice slim fit, fashionable & oh-so-warm! I can't get enough of these & I own many. They're my absolute go-to pieces during the winter months. Easy to layer, easily paired with jeans, easy to launder - no shrinkage - can be worn right out of the dryer. Wearing this top, layered appropriately, along with a decent winter coat, I feel quite comfortable outside even in the harshest of weather.

      Comments about Eastern Mountain Sports EMS Women's Power Stretch 1/2 Zip:

      This top allows great freedom of movement and stays put. Very warm and holds up to lots of wear and washes. I specifically bought this top because I am out in the cold all day and wanted a warm top with thumb holes. My ONLY complaint is that the thumb hole seam is bulky and interferes with being able to grip a ski pole. I ended up not using the thumb holes. I wish EMS would redesign this top with a lower profile thumb holes that has flat construction!

        Comments about Eastern Mountain Sports EMS Women's Power Stretch 1/2 Zip:

        This top is wonderful for keeping you warm without restricting movement. Note that your normal size will work for a base layer but if you want to wear this over other layers, you may want to order a size larger. I have worn this on a couple of climbing trips and it is now my go-to top for keeping warm.

          I received this top in red for Christmas. I love the color and fit.
          I found it very comfortable running in 30 degree
          weather with a LIGHT top under it. 40 degrees and it can be worn alone.
          I agree with the other review - one is not enough.

            I climb regularly in New England, where it's wet and cold by October. This fleece was warmer than expected for it's wet, stretched to move with me on climbs, and the color looks great in pictures. I'm 5'9, and this fit my torso and arms great (many fleeces for women become belly shirts), and I'll wear it to dinner after a day at the crags. Great purchase!

            Right from the beginning I've had problems with the seams unravelling. I've had to cut them and seal them off with a lighter to keep it from spreading. It is not very warm and is not wind resistant. Would not buy it again. Would only be good as an under thermal but is took bulky for that.

            I have four of the power stretch 1/2 zip.
            I wear these for outdoor workouts that include bike riding, walking, running, and snowshoeing.
            Perfect for staying dry after workout sweats.
            This power stretch keeps me warm during the day, and is light enough for all around use.
            I just love them.

                I sized up based upon other reviewers' comments and was glad. The sleeves are a bit tight (lower arm) but that is ok. The cut is attractive and it is warm. I use this for a mid layer when cross country skiing.

                  I got the X-Small, I am 5 '3" 110 pounds and it fits great. Snug and cozy, with thumb holes so it partly covers my hands when it is cold. Hard to find things that's are not too boxy, and this fits nice and snugly.
