Here's what other sites are saying:
From Backcountry.com:
"The Smartwool Men's Lightweight -Zip Top is like the caped crusader of the baselayer world-at any time, and in any conditions, it's ready to wick moisture, dry in a flash, and naturally fight odors thanks to its soft, stretchy merino wool construction. Flatlock seams give it next-to-skin comfort and the front zip aids in venting when you overheat."
From CampSaver.com:
"For those who run a little hot, Smartwools Lightweight Zip T is the ideal shirt that combines versatility with year-round function."
From REI:
"The SmartWool Lightweight Long-Sleeve Zip top offers natural stretch and breathability for stop-and-go activities in fluctuating temperatures. Jersey-knit merino wool maintains next-to-skin comfort whether the climate is warm, cold or in between. 8 in. zipper ventilates on demand, and raised collar helps keep your neck warm. Shoulder panels eliminate top shoulder seams and reduce chafing, and princess seams add a flattering look. Flatlock side seams are soft, non-bulky and designed to eliminate chafing. SmartWool products are guaranteed not to itch and can be repeatedly washed and dried without shrinking. Machine washable."
From Backcountry Outlet:
"Wear the SmartWool Women's Lightweight Zip-T whether you're headed out for a morning jog, a backcountry tour, or Sunday morning breakfast. SmartWool made this do-anything top with their soft merino wool and flattering princess seams. SmartWool's porous natural fibers move moisture while it is still in vapor form before it has a chance to condense on your skin; you stay drier and more comfortable throughout your entire workout. By comparison, synthetics transport moisture after it condenses, which means you must visibly sweat before any moisture management begins. SmartWool fiber is also highly adaptable to a broad range of conditions; it keeps you warm in winter and cool in spring. The naturally anti-microbial Lightweight Zip-T features a -length Zip-T collar for increased ventilation when you up the pace on the skin track or single track. Flatlock-seam construction reduces chafing, and an active fit allows for bulk-free layering without inhibiting your freedom of movement."

Unlike the previous reviewer, I found the sizing chart to provide a good fit (I'm a small). I've been favorably impressed with this shirt."

Pros:
Quality Merino
Flat seams
Cons:
Baggy and sized poorly with too long of length and misplaced shoulder seams for a size small
If you don't mind using it as the best sleepwear ever, which is what I've adopted it for, then intend it to serve similar purposes."
