Arc'teryx Rho LTW Zip Top Long-Sleeve - Men's

 Brand : Arc'teryx
Item : ARC0157
The Arc'teryx Men's Rho LTW Zip Top is a great base layer to wear for long winter days in the backcountry. Made from fine, lightweight, super-soft merino wool, the Rho Top keeps you comfortable in a wide range of temperatures. Even if this shirt gets saturated while you dig the world's best snow pit, it retains its insulative properties when you deem the slope safe enough to ski. The Rho LTW Top doesn't retain odors, so after a full season in it, you'll experience limited funk. This top is form fitting, with no-lift gusseted underarms. *Available for US shipment only.
Price: $98.95

Arc'teryx Rho LTW Zip Top Long-Sleeve - Men's



Woolly mammoth
The top is what you expect from Arcteryx, quality and workmanship. However he use of wool cause a few problems for me. It was a little itchy and washing it was a pain. I had to do a seperate load with "wool" friendly detergent. The description on item should have mentioned that. I hate high maintenance and not being able to just throw the top in with my other camping gear just sucks.


counting sheep
This is one of the best fitting layers you can get. Even after wearing it for multiple days it retains it shape. The neck portion also stays snug. It's as good or better that Icebreaker and Ibex merino products. I wore this today under a Marmot wind shirt for a cold (upper 20Fs low 30Fs) mountain bike ride and it was just the right comb. Great product as usual from Arc'teryx. Of course this site always has the best choice of products and excellent service.


Great Base Layer
This is another great item from Arc’teryx. Not uncommon with Arc’teryx, this item is very expensive but the product is worth it if you are out using it all the time. This is a great shirt as a base layer thus it is very close fitting, so do not expect to get any layer underneath it. Although it has a very contoured fit it dose not feel restrictive at all. Some people complain that the Merino wool is still a little itchy for them, however I have not found this to be a problem. I have worn this shirt mile after mile running, snowshoeing and camping and it dose not get stinky like Capilene. Overall this is a great product and has replaced almost all of my other Capilene base layer shirts as I don't get around to wearing them now, only when this one is in the wash. A little expensive, but worth it.


Love 'em
The Tops are very nice, just like the bottoms. Great stuff. Fits well. Handles temperature/moisture changes well. Looks great too ;-)


Pretty nice if your ok with wool
Very nice base layer that does not stretch out over time. However the merino wool was itchy, so I could not wear it. However I think this itchiness is only perceived by a small few, so for those that need a wool layer, this is great. Compared to my synthetic base layer, this wool layer did not feel as clammy... I would love to wear this as my base layer if it were not my sensitivity to the itchiness.
