My other favourite cold weather base layer

Wow, is this piece cozy! So lightweight, making it lofty and warm. The terry knit is rather loose, making me concerned about pilling and snagging. I was hoping it to be more dense, like the Devold Expedition, but I am enjoying it. Next winter will tell me more.

This is one of my most worn clothes. The previous one is already approx. 12 years old, and would otherwise still be completely usable, but the puppy has made several holes in it, so I bought a new one already, although I still use the old one for going out and doing everyday activities (until the puppy grows up :) So my assessment is based on the old one, which, however, is virtually identical to this new one, so luckily the model has not been changed in any way.
This shirt is used when going out from autumn to spring, except for sweaty exercise, and also in the summer sometimes on cool evenings or on the water. It's light but warm, without being at all bulky. (The same manufacturer's thickness 400 model is clearly warmer and is actually better suited for cold weather and being around than as a general shirt for all kinds of activities.)
It gets a little wrinkled over the years, but the usability is great. In the early years, I sometimes also considered it a part of casual dressing at work, even though by definition it is probably an "undershirt". However, it looks quite neutral.
It is also the only one of my merino wool clothes where the armpits never really start to smell of sweat, which means that it needs to be washed extremely rarely.
Absolutely great product, 5+ stars!
