Icebreaker Bodyfitzone 150 Zone Long Sleeve

The Icebreaker Bodyfitzone 150 Zone Long Sleeve top is 100% what you would expect from a technical T-shirt made with Merino wool. We immediately remark on the incredible warmth. It is very pleasant when you ski in the middle of January or when sitting on a chairlift. Yet, you quickly warm up when you walk or when your heart starts pumping. The Test4outside.com team thinks it’s the perfect first layer for downhill skiing. The other big highlight is the odor resistance of Merino fibers. End-of-day car trips are therefore much more bearable for your passengers!

 

There are downsides to these qualities. The products made with Merino are generally slightly heavier, grams that could count when you go skiing or have trouble packing your suitcase. The other disadvantage concerns the few people who have a sensitivity to the contact of wool against the skin: it’s prickly. This is especially notable when you sweat a little. It should be noted however that the Icebreaker Bodyfitzone 150 Long Sleeve Zone top is made from 83% wool mixed with 12% nylon and 5% Lycra.

 

In the action, this is a very comfortable first layer to wear because you quickly forget about it. The flat seams go unnoticed, the shoulder areas follow your morphology movements and the lower back is well protected. The sleeves are long and you can protect the top of the hands: the thumb goes through an opening, it is practical and effective in ski touring when you do not necessarily wear your gloves going uphill. The cut is not too tight.
The upper back has a net weave to improve the transfer of moisture and reduce the heat in this area. We would have liked to have seen this net weave go down to the lumbar area too, as you have a tendency to sweat a lot in this area.
The neckline is perfect, no complaints in terms of comfort.

Drying takes longer than traditional fiber, so do not hesitate to remove the upper layers to limit perspiration.

The long-sleeved T-shirt is machine washed in lukewarm water, without softener, without bleach. No spin-drying.

The Icebreaker Bodyfitzone 150 Zone Long Sleeve top is suitable for cold ski sessions. Its great thermal insulation is this garment’s main quality, made with Merino wool.
