Great for winter running and biking
By D. Dacera-Ross
I bought this shirt so I can continue running and riding my bike during fall and winter here in MN. This is a very well made shirt. The material is thick; the inside is like fleece that keeps you really warm while the outer material wicks sweat. It's definitely not the typical lightweight long sleeve shirt, and layering will not be necessary (well at least not for me; I get warm too quickly. This is great for winter running or biking. I biked 3 miles on 8F temperature wearing this and a wind breaker and I was so warm when I got to my destination. I also wore this running when it was in the mid-low 20s and it kept me toasty. I love to hood. Since the material is stretchy, the hood fits well on my head and provides good coverage on my ears and my neck. The best part are the sleeves that convert into mitts. The end of the sleeves has a tiny flap that you can fold over to cover your hands to keep it warm while running. I didn't have to wear gloves at all! It has a small Sugoi logo on the back that is also reflective (you have to wear the hood in order for it to be visible) and a unique Sugoi imprint on the lower part of the right sleeve. It's very discrete that you can almost miss it; I think it adds character. The only problem I had was that I ordered this in X-small. When it arrived, the paper tag says x-small but the actual tag inside the shirt says it's small. I was going to exchange it but it wasn't eligible for returns/exchange because I purchased on sale (it was only $22)and it was the last one in stock when I bought it. It is slightly looser than what I would have wanted. It's especially noticeable on the upper sleeves, armpits and upper body. There's about 1-1 1/2" extra fabric; it's a bit unflattering. I think the x-small would have fit perfectly; I'm 5'2", 110lbs. But since I got such great deal on this shirt, and also because I care more about the shirt's functionality, it's still deserving of the 5 stars. I purchased it in light blue and it looks just like in the picture; it's a very vibrant shade. I love it!

By Karen J. Cox
Love it. I wear this shirt for endurance horse riding, which is probably the ultimate test of sports clothing durability. I've had mine for about two years now, hundreds of miles of riding. There is a little pilling where it hits my saddle or bag in back. Other than that absolutely no signs of wear and tear. On any given day I am getting on/off horse multiple times, being scratched by branches and tree trunks, saddling up, carrying hay, etc and it takes it all. And horse hair does not cling to it. I like to wear it with a vest. The shirt is long enough that my back is not exposed when leaning forward. The warmth is medium, it does not provide complete protection against strong winds. But it's very layerable without making you feel constricted. I can also wear it in warm temps without getting too hot. If it gets wet it dries quickly and you don't feel the wet part clinging to you. The best part is the hood. Without a helmet it gives you a serious ninja look, and if you do a sport that requires a helmet, this hood fits nicely under a horse riding/bike/ski helmet, all of which I've done. It covers your ears and actually looks OK under a helmet. I like the little pocket. The pocket is supposed to have a little hole to stick your iPod headphone wire through but mine didn't come with that so I made my own. The pocket is big enough for an iPhone/iPod touch which I think would be fine for walking, but anything that big bounces around to much if riding a horse. So I just clip my ipod shuffle to the pocket. The only thing I find almost useless is the fold-over hand covers, they feel too short for me, but I am 5'7". I might use them for running but not really useful for riding a horse where you need all your fingers. It might seem pricey but with how long it lasts and how many things you can wear it for and the range of weather you can wear it in, it's very economical in the long run. Or ride.

By white cloud
Comfortable fit. Great for outdoors in the Autumn chill. Cherry color is more dark pink than red - bright and elegant. Love the details in the sleeve and the hood. Great price on amazon.
