Helly Hansen Men's Lifa Stripe Crew Lightweight Breathable Moisture Wicking Thermal Baselayer, 998 Black - Medium

This men's base layer, from Helly Hansen, is designed to be like a second skin, wicking moisture away from the body and helping to keep you dry and comfortable- and it lives up to the hype! The top is of typical Helly Hansen quality. BUT- as I have found for all HH gear, it runs small (my husband is normally a Large and the X-Large is a good snug fit). It's super lightweight and breathable. Warm when standing still but breathable during activity. The top is a nice slim cut and looks good too. He is currently wearing it in the snow in Niseko Japan and it's keeping him very warm under a standard fleece. Machine washable and quick drying, so it's versatile as well.

I perspire a lot, particularly with exercise. Long ago I learned about the virtues of polypropylene. Any cold weather activity with cotton underwear is a sentence to being cold. I have tried many brands of polypropylene first layers. They frayed, they pilled, they tore and developed holes. Then I discovered Helly Hansen. Top price, but I had been disappointed by all others. WOW. Worth every penny. Years of use of their first layer with no cotton and I am warm and dry when snow shoeing, XC skiing, snow blowing and hunting. Use a second layer of standard polyester pile, and you can do single digit temps, with vigorous exercise and still be warm and dry. This is one item that going cheep doesn't work. When you are outside, wet and cold, price doesn't matter. Go for the top on this one. HH makes them well, and they last, and they work. Just one physician/engineer's opinion.

Woth every cent fits perfect ,well made great colors on arm I highly recommend this Helly Hansen base layer ,also very confortable!

This is a great base layer. Warm and comfortable. My only gripe is it's tight in the body. I'm 6'1 220 and I ordered the XXL and it's a little snug. I know it's a base that's supposed to be snug for layering but I sized up to give myself room and didn't really get it. That said, this is a comfortable base layer and I like the look.

Helly Hansen makes an excellent product. I have a shirt that I have had for over 20 years and it is still in great shape and I wear it to bike and run 3-4 days per week from November-March. This updated version is not different. Very warm and wicks moisture really well. This are not thick shirts but are very warm if you are active.

BEST BASE LAYER ON THE PLANET

For such a thin shirt it helps to keep me warm better than I thought it would, even when soaked with sweat. The fabric breathes well and drys quickly in a breeze. It is a little bit stretchy and hugs my shape well and I find the white stripes down the arms fashionable. I bought two of them for kayaking but wear them when I am out exploring dry ground as well. I got them on sale but believe they are worth the regular full price. I would buy them again and recommend them for any activity where its important to stay warm when wet. One big plus is after it drys from sweating It doesn't smell like body odor like a cotton shirt does. Great for overnight kayaking trips.

I haven’t tested this product in the field yet but Im sure it will get the job done. The point of my review is that these run incredibly small. I originally ordered my normal size Large and it wasn’t even close to fitting. I then ordered an XL and it is still pretty tight but Im going to keep it as I don’t want to deal with it. I would order 1, if not 2 sizes larger than normal

Feels good on and look good! Keep you warm and dry. Got four colours.

Very good base layer, warm enough for those, who don't like to get hot but want some basic protection.

Um es kurz zu machen,Funktionswäsche muss funktionieren sonst wäre sie ihrem Namen nicht gerecht. Habe schon einiges von anderen Markenherstellern probiert aber diese hier ist für mich eindeutig die beste auf dem Markt. Ich betreibe Hobbymäßig Laufsport und dieses Material hält wirklich trocken und ist super angenehm zu tragen ohne daß man eingeengt wird. Am besten eine Nummer kleiner kaufen dann funktioniert sie am besten.

second one i have bought,keeps you cool,drys fast,very comfy

Ottimo acquisto, comoda e di buona vestibilità. Presa come indumento da cantiere, lo stile sobrio non rende necessario cambiarsi in caso di appuntamenti dell'ultimo minuto.
