I have a long sleeve shirt I play golf in. I wasn't that impressed with it. When the wind hits you it seems to multiply the cold. It's good under another long sleeve shirt but that kinda defeats the purpose when you could just buy a long underwear shirt for $5 & wear it.

On a side note, Under Armour Boxer Jocks are the best things ever.

Military is gona put a ban on it because it melts to your skin, and burns the **** out of soldiers, has a real low flash point, so don`t wear it around fire. other then that works great.

I wear it in ND and they work great, I have about four or five pairs (tops and bottoms) I like them a lot more than normal long john type underwear. I wear them and just long pants and a shirt and a light jacket and I am good until it get around -20. After that I bust out the jacket and gloves. My only complaint is the price .... $$$$

Exactly. I wear the short sleeve ones instead of tee shirts as they control heat and wick away perspiration which tends to cool as well.

+1 wore the short sleeve ones in NYC in -5 wind chill conditions last week in NYC and I never felt wet.

Holy shit FSF finally has agreed with me! LOL:beer:

I have the Base 3.0 shirt and pants to use while hunting. It does not do good versus cold wind but goes great in cold conditions with lack of wind.

I do believe a new off brand just came out for half the price, but works just as good. I have to ask my uncle about the name of the company.
