Here's what other sites are saying:

From Backcountry.com:
"When you head out for an epic powder day, three-pitch ice climb, or a backcountry snowshoe tour, the Smartwool Men's Midweight -Zip Top is the perfect way to start your layering. Made from soft, stretchy, odor-resistant merino wool, this zip shirt wicks moisture and dries just as quickly as your synthetic baselayers in a comfy, all-natural package. Flatlock seams eliminate chafing on aerobic outings."

From CampSaver.com:
"Smartwools heaviest NTS option, their Midweight Zip T offers the worlds most efficient moisture management system, zip-T ventilation and next-to-ski softness."

From REI:
"The SmartWool Midweight Zip top offers natural stretch and breathability for stop-and-go activities in fluctuating temperatures. Jersey-knit merino wool maintains your comfort whether the climate is warm, cold or in between. 10 in. zipper ventilates on demand, and raised collar helps keep your neck warm. Shoulder panels eliminate top shoulder seams and reduce chafing; set-in sleeves increase overall comfort. 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 Midweight Zip-T long-sleeve shirt for stop-and-go aerobic activities or as a warm base layer. This top is ideal for situations where the weather and temperature fluctuate, like in alpine environments. 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 alpine foray. By comparison, synthetics transport moisture after it condenses; you must visibly sweat before any moisture management begins, which leads to chills once you stop moving. SmartWool fiber is also highly adaptable to a broad range of conditions; it keeps you warm when you rest and cool when your pulse and core temperature heat up. This naturally anti-microbial shirt features a -length Zip-T collar for increased ventilation control. Flattering princess seams with a flatlock-seam construction hug your curves and reduce chafing. An active fit allows for bulk-free layering without inhibiting your freedom of movement."

"Fact: this top is my favorite piece of clothing. If you look at any of my other reviews you will see that I spend most of my time in that fine, kind, merino. That being said, this top (of which I own 2), is my most used piece of clothing. It doesn't seem to matter if I am hiking with weight in the 60's or stopping for a break in the low 40's."
