Here's what other sites are saying:

From Moosejaw:
"Free Shipping. Arcteryx Men's RHO LT Zip Top (Spring 2008) The Men's Rho LT Zip by Arcteryx is an ideal trim-fitting technical foundation for maximized wicking performance. Lightweight fibers move moisture and a silver fabric treatment reacts with sweat to cut down on back country stench. Specifications: Weight: 6.7 oz (190 g) M Features: Half zip Form fitting No-lift gusseted underarms Minimal odor retention One laminated chest pocket with laminated zip Warm when wet Fabrics: Rentex powerflex We are not able to ship Arcteryx products outside the US because of that other thing."

From Backcountry.com:
"The Arc'teryx Men's Rho LT Zip Neck Shirt gives you a rock-solid foundation to layer warm and layer well. Rentex Powerflex material allows for a wide range of movement and has a great warmth-to-weight ratio, so you stay toasty without added bulk. Subtle features like a laminated chest pocket and no-lift underarm gussets make the Rho LT versatile enough for everything from autumn climbing to mid-winter ski tours. An anti-microbial, silver-ion treatment keeps funk at bay, so this top doesn't fall victim to the synthetic stench. *Available for US shipment only."

From Altrec Outdoors:
"Enabling warm, dry next-to-skin wicking performance, the Arcteryx Rho LT Zip Neck for women uses lightweight synthetic fibers to move moisture rapidly, and a silver ion treatment to remove odor during an endurance endeavor. An ideal warmth-to-weight ratio base layer for backcountry adventurers, the clean detailed Rho is designed for year round use. No-lift underarm gussets, that let you raise your arms without your shirt going for a ride, allows for comfortable cinching of the collar zip. Soft and form fitting the Rho LT Zip Neck fleece easily goes solo on a sun soaked spring day, as a laminated sleeve pocket provides for convenient stashing of essentials."

From RockCreek:
"The Rho LT Zip Neck by ArcTeryx is a winner when it comes to wicking performance. Synthetic, lightweight fibers enable the material to keep you warm, dry as they move moisture rapidly away from your skin. Form fitting so its easy to layer under thick clothing and with its silver ion anti-microbial treatment, you stay almost stench free. Great for cross country skiing, climbing, alpine ascents or trail running."

"It fits well, is well constructed, looks good, and best of all ~ does the job to keep you warm. I had this on with only a Hawaiian shirt at 8500 ft in the snow and was plenty warm. I also like the fact that they treat it with silver-ion something so that if you sleep in it, the treatment keeps odor causing bacteria at bay."
