  • Okay today just taking a look at the. Icebreaker t-shirt this is one of their. Cool light shirts called the fear. T-shirt and so it’s 135 gram weight. Which is the lightest weight shirt. Icebreaker makes and so yes how it kind. Of looks on so this is a medium on me i. Usually wear a large i did order a large. Shirt in this cuz you can see the medium. Just kind of hits my gut a little bit. And doesn’t look the greatest so kudos. If you’re a better shape it’ll probably look better on ya but with the large i. Found it still hung the seam in the front but the back was where it was. Blouse here so really didn’t make any make much difference in how it hung so i. Just kind of hit the medium on the. Sleeves were a little bigger and a large too but i think the medium sleeves look. Find the one thing i noticed on this shirt is there’s a little these little. Divots to stick out on each, and they’re on each shoulder kind of makes it look like it was hanging on a hanger which so. Which is kind of you know shouldn’t do. It merino wool cuz it will stretch out so it doesn’t like the greenest sorry. For the sweat stains pretty warm here today but so you can see it definitely. Pulls the moisture off pretty well but. Yes that’s how it looks and if the length is pretty good a lot of merino wool shirt seemed to run really long this one’s kind of more normal length. I don’t know how much it’ll shrink this. These cool light shirts the severe shirt. Is a blend so it’s 65 wool 65 percent. Merino wool 20 percent tensile 15. Percent nylon. The fabric weed is 135 grams so it’s. Very light fabric the weed of the shirt. According to icebreaker in a medium size is 150 grams or 5.2 9 ounces so i kind. Of got it just to see something for running it’s a bit because i have a i. Forget 150 or 178 merino a shirt and it. It does feel a little warm so it’s kind of curious about this one being 135 and. It’s with the tensile is supposed to be cooler i don’t i haven’t run in them. At all i think I’m just gonna send them back cuz again they seem to fit a little snug on me on the front there and. Honestly I’m a little burned out on. Merino just kind of how it’s not super. Duper durable the one shirt i have been running in doesn’t have any holes yet but it has a lot of pilling where the. Backpack sits that i run with and then a. Couple other shirts i do have holes and. I’m not sure if it’s from my belt like. Where they sit on my waist or just abrasion and certainly i mean i was. Darning some holes yesterday so it’s. Fixable but it is nice to have a shirt. That you don’t have to worry about getting holes in all the time so I’m up. In the air with merino a little bit but you can’t beat the you know the nonstick. Nonstick enos i was wearing it day after. Day but anyways as far as this fear shirt so. You can see there’s one logo here right on the left chest pocket and it’s collar. Same colors the shirt so it’s pretty subtle and then on the right seam. There’s an icebreaker to agggghhhh logo. They’re so pretty subtle branding i would say overall there’s no that it’s. Not raglan sleeve so the seam run right on the top of the shoulder so i don’t know if that would hit you at all if you were running with your you know hiking with a backpack kind of thing but the fabric is very light it’s. A comfortable fabric and hopefully maybe with the nylon and the tensile maybe it would give you a little more durability. Than a 100% merino wool shirt would the. Retail i think on this one is 70 bucks, but they seemed you know they dropped. Down in the amazon to the 40 to 50 dollar range it looks like depending on color and size and whatnot so but yeah. That’s a look at the so that’s the. Icebreaker sphere cool light t-shirt so. Thanks for watching and take care.

    Hello and welcome to another rocks on the life video I’m your host jiff safford today i get to review a trio of tech tees from outdoor research. Okay guys like i said today i get to review a trio of tech tees these are all. Three from outdoor research tech tees in. My opinion are probably one of the most. Important versatile and just. All-around pieces that you need for all seasons i wear these spring summer and. Fall and then they can also be great base layers in the winter so for those. Of you that don’t know I’m sure everybody knows what tech t is but the tech t is a trim fitting athletic. T-shirt that is generally not made of cotton just because cotton is not a performance fabric and doesn’t dry quickly it also just doesn’t have that great form fit and performance that you’re looking for. That you get with synthetic materials so. The first step in the trio is the. Outdoor research igniter this tech. T is probably the most comfortable of. The three I’m going to review in this video they call this a heathered. Material I’m not quite sure really what. Heathered means but to me it just means that it’s soft so this is an all synthetic but this one feels the most. Like cotton so if you’re looking for the. Most comfortable t-shirt i would go with. The igniter it also happens to be the most trim fit so all three of these are. Mediums and four for this medium. This is definitely the most trim fit it’s the tightest and the arms and in the armpits so it just depends on what. You’re looking for as far as fit but. This is the trim stuv the three and this is the most comfortable so if you’re doing maybe an activity that isn’t the. Most high output or you don’t need the. The Highest performance as far as wicking properties breath ability quick drying if. You’re just looking for something a little bit more like a t-shirt but still has performance properties of a tec. Teeth look at the outdoor research igniter. Okay this is the echo from outdoor. Research the echo is by far the lightest. This shirt is unbelievable just. Because it really feels like you’re wearing nothing so when i want to. Do something that i almost don’t want to wear a shirt but i just want to wear a shirt maybe for abrasion protection with. A pack or if it’s super hot out and i. Don’t want to get sunburned I’ll throw on a shirt this is the one I’m gonna look for because this is just the absolute lightest of the three that I’m. Reviewing today again the echo that this. Has kind of dual colorway a nice light. Blue with this high visibility yellow so this would be a great option for a running shirt as well especially just so you can be seen on the road as. Far as fit i would say this is actually. Probably the loosest or the largest of. The cuts it’s definitely looser in the sleeves. And it’s a little bit baggy er in the. Waist so it just has that loose airy feeling to it really feels like you’re wearing nothing this is a this is also a great piece like i said this is the one. I’m gonna go for it when i don’t really want to wear a shirt but i either have to wear a shirt or i just want some sort of protection that a shirt offers I’m gonna look at the echo again super high. Performance and this pattern this. Fabric pattern its kind of square. Crosshatch pattern very high performance. Again these are all quick-drying very. Breathable so yeah this is another great. Option again the lightest okay guys this. Is the last shirt in the trip today this is the outdoor research gage now the gage in my opinion is the highest performing shirt of the three this. Fabric is like magic it’s super breathable it dries amazingly. Quick i think the fit is probably in. My opinion it’s probably the best it kind of combines between the igniter and the echo kind of in-between fit so not. So tight that it’s tight in the arms and. Tighten the armpits but it’s also not baggy in the waist. Either so i think this is the probably the best fit as far as performance is concerned and this fabric. Is also probably the highest performance as far as far as breath ability quick-drying just overall this is what you think of. When you think of a high performance tech tee now it’s not the most comfortable and. It’s not the most lightweight so you’re gonna have to strike that balance between what do you want it to feel like on your skin kind of that on the skin feel also are you willing to sacrifice. Just a little bit of weight it just has a little bit of a heavier weight not as. Much as an airy feel as the echo but i. Think the strikes are good balance and this is the highest performing of. The three it also has the most detail as. Kind of the exposed stitching has kind. Of a pretty cool design may be more of a runners look in the back not so much like an outdoor sports like rock. Climbing or mountain bike look it has more of a runners look but this is. A great one super high performance if I’m going to be doing a high output activity or something like. Climbing in a gym that’s general a little warmer than the outside I’ll go for this one just because it. Dries so fast and it’s probably the. The Highest performance in my opinion overall all three shirts are great now. My only gripe with all three is that. They run really large for me i like tech. Tees to be slim fit i don’t want them to. Be big and bulky like a traditional just street wear or street cotton t-shirt i. Want them to be form fit because for me performance is number one when it comes to this style t-shirt so i had to size all of these down everything I’ve ever reviewed for outdoor research all the tops the jackets the shirts they’ve all been larges all three of these that i. Reviewed in this video are all mediums i originally got the largest, and they were way too big so if you want something a. Little higher performance and you like the trim fit that you kind of see on me in these videos be sure to size down one you normally would get in a typical t-shirt so that’s my only gripe is the. Fit be sure to size down but other than that all three are great different applications we’re looking for comfort lightweight or high performance i think that they pretty much have the whole the. Whole range covered with all three of these tees and with that this has been another rock on the lake video be sure to check out the blog rock caramel ace comm for more thanks for watching.
