There is something about Icebreaker's original few shirts that I like the best. The weight is perfect for cool and cold weather wear. While paddling, bicycling or hiking on cooler days this merino wool top performs superbly - keeping you warm while helping to regulate your perspiration. The zip gives you greater control over your temperature. Aesthetically, the simple, full-panel colors of the Tech Top look great.
I love the tall neck of this piece. It's can be worn as a turtleneck to sprucing up an outfit, or looks good alone, unzipped with the collar folded down. If someone were to take all of my merino pieces away except one, the Icebreaker 260 Tech Top would be the piece I keep. I love its flexibility.
