Core lightweight crew LS

Perfect first layer for colder day or stand alone shirt on those warm early season hunts. Thumb loops keep the shirt from bunching up when layering it.

I love this item. It’s perfect for wearing on those hotter days if you would just like to have on some camo, but at the same time it’s an amazing base layer pretty much year around.

I wear Sitka core lightweight crew as my base layer, and I am very pleased with the quality and performance. I am a licensed hunting guide and guide 4 to 6 weeks a year. I recommend Sitka light weight crew to all my hunters and friends.

Not impressed

I will preface this with, I own A LOT of Sitka gear and love almost all of it. Not with this thought. I was not impressed by the feel of the material or the sizing. The feel is very scratchy and cheap feeling. Almost like a synthetic you would get at Walmart. The next is the sizing. This is always a major issue for me with Sitka across all of their gear. I originally went with a small because I have an equinox hoody that’s a medium and it’s huge, it fits like a large. So I thought with it being the same lightweight gear the sizing would be similar. The small definitely did not fit so I went with a medium. I get the medium in and it was not much different from the small. For reference, I’m 5’11” 185 athletic built.

Nice!

You can tell this is quality. Soft feel, rich camo color. I'm 5-9 185 with a 42-43 chest (usually a large) and this large was within that size range and more of a snug/slim style fit, but not tight or restricting. If you prefer a looser fit, I'd suggest going up one size.

Great product! Your gear is

Great product! Your gear is a big investment but no gear works well if not used correctly. The base layer is your first line of defense in being dry, warm and comfortable. This product wicks moisture very well and dries quickly, not to mention how comfortable it is on your skin. These guys build high quality stuff that works, worth every penny!

This is most likely just

This is most likely just a ME problem, but I wasn't the biggest fan of the thumb loops. While they are good for their intended purpose of keeping the sleeves down, they did tend to rub a bit until it felt kind of raw. I feel like having the thumb loop pulled more down into the sleeve like on the traverse hoody would have been more comfortable but again, this could just be a personal preference for me. Overall, it is a great base layer, very lightweight and keeps my sweat away from me. Despite my feelings with the thumb loops, I will most likely buy more going forward and will continue to wear this one. I recommend this product.

Incredibly breathable! Unexpectedly found myself out in 90+ degree heat and 92% humidity after a storm cleared earlier than anticipated. I was shocked how comfortable I was. Only area that was hot and wet was my back and that’s due to my Ascent 12 daypack on my back.

Guess I didn't have the luck the other reviewers had. I had one in a size medium and I am 5'9, 160lbs. It was a good fit. After only wearing it one time, the stitching under the right arm became loose and a hole started. Second time wearing it just made it worse. It was too uncomfortable to wear and an obvious defect in the stitching. I have no idea where these are made but was not happy. Can only give 2 stars and shouldn't give any.

I purchased this shirt and the core lightweight hoody today from a local store and I love the hoody. It fits great and this LS shirt also seems great. The only complaint I have about it is the fit around the chest is a little tighter than the hoody. I honestly think in the future I will just purchase the hoody over this shirt as it is not much more and the fit is superior and comes with hood and built in mask.

Best synthetic base layer I have worn. I have tried other 'poly blend' base layers and they aways end up smelling like a stale locker room after a few days in the field. This base layer can be worn for multiple days without feeling like I am going to blow anything downwind out of the unit

The lightweight long sleeve worked

The lightweight long sleeve worked great for an unexpectedly warm WY pronghorn hunt. Was perfect when paired with the Jet Stream jacket for the 40's & 50's in the morning and wore just the lightweight the rest of the day with 70's & 80's. Any wind had a noticeable cooling feeling. Highly recommend for anything during warm hunts.

This is a great base

This is a great base layer. It fits well, wick moisture and controls odours very well. I am however disappointed in its durability. After only one day of trekking through brush, it has many threads that have been pulled which caused the fabric to pucker slightly. Given this is designed for hunters and is a premium brand, I expected it to be much more durable.

Excellent early season base layer. Perfect standalone 60+ degrees, wear a hoodie overtop if you get cold. Only complaint is when wearing alone, these things fray easily on any snags. Love this shirt overall for early season whitetails and will wear during spring turkey.
