I wore the lightweight merino wool underwear while playing boot hockey the other night and stayed warm and completely dry. The shirt was extremely comfortable even after an hour of activity. Would highly recommmend this shirt to anyone who needs to spend long amounts of time outside.

My sister gave me the lightweight merino wool long underwear to try on a 7 day hunt in the wilderness area of Wyoming, just outside Yellowstone Park. I wore it on the 8 1/2 hour horseback ride in, I wore it hunting all day in temperatures ranging from +20 to 50 degrees fahrenheit, and I even slept in it inside my sleeping bag. It kept me warm when needed and wicked away the moisture when we were chasing game at elevations between 8,500 and 10,000 feet. Great product. Can't wait to get more. Jim Hegenbarth, Madison, WI

I own all three layers of the Justin Charles Merino wool underwear. I use it for winter league trap shooting and Telemark back country skiing and everyday wear around the house ( when i can get it away from everyone else in the house).
The Expedition weight is extremely versatile as a sweater and a final layer for long days outside.
My everyday shirt is the midweight. This is the core of my cold weather clothing. I am never cold or overly hot. It regulates my body temperature. No polyester underwear comes close and I have owned the best.
Try it once and you will never go back to synthetics.
It is no stink, warm even when wet and it the most comfortable product available. The cut of the underwear is true to size and allows for layering.
The Lightweight is more like silk than wool. I didn't know wool could be made to feel like this stuff.
I recommend buying the crew for base layer and the zip tees for mid and expedition.
Better get more than one set if you want it for yourself or better yet buy it for everyone and avoid getting yours stolen!

I have never worn underwear this comfortable in my life. It doesn't seem to matter if it's warm or cool, damp or dry - the soft texture and supreme moisture transfer is an unbeatable combination.

If you ever want to test your long underwear, head to the Colorado mountains in late September to hunt elk with bow and arrow. Chilly dawns, sweating hikes, warm afternoon sun and cool sunsets. My Justin Charles underwear passed the test in every way. It was warm when I needed warmth & it wicked off perspiration when that was the chore. I was impressed!

I was 160-180 miles into the ice cap hunting with Innuits on a dog sled. I had to take my gear/food with me every time we left on a polar bear trail not knowing what the day would bring. The first day there, I wore my synthetics and artic outerwear gear. The second day, I decided to wear my Justin Charles merino wool under garments next to my skin for warmth and protection from the artic blast and what a difference! There were white out conditions and we had to put up tents to stay the night. It was 30-35 below zero with 60-70 mph winds. My Justin Charles didn't come off for the rest of the hunt. I was so comfortable with it on. I slept with the Justin Charles balaclava on so I didn't have to bury my head in my sleeping bag. My Justin Charles also didn't take on an odor like the rest of the guys who were wearing sythetic under garments. I recommend Justin Charles products to all my friends!
