Smartwool Merino 250 Baselayer 1/4-Zip - Women's reviews and deals for sale

Don’t like the new version

Completely agree with the previous comment. The cut of the shoulders is different and it doesn’t fit as good as the ones I have. It run MUCH LARGER ( see pictures, both are seize L). I love the brand and I have a few base layers that I wear everywhere, even to work. This one won’t do it and I will return it.

Disappointed by this year’s version

First off, I have purchased several of these Smartwool 250 zip shirts over the years, and I love them. This one is of the same high quality in most ways - it’s warm, breathable, good construction, and runs true to size. The deep blue color is absolutely beautiful. My only complaint, and it’s worth taking off two stars to me, is the zipper pull. It’s bright white (in contrast… read more to the dark top), and the word Smartwool ends up being obnoxiously noticeable, and close up by my face. This limits how I can wear this top it greatly. It might be fine for use a performance base layer, but I won’t wear it as a stand-alone shirt (like I often do with my others), which limits its functionality to me greatly. I will not wear this under a blazer for work, or even as a casual shirt, as I don’t like flashing brand labels and honestly the zipper pull cheapens the look of the garment.
