Best new base layer?

[Beendare]

I'm not going to let the comments "Cali cross dresser" by guys on the other forum keep me from sharing my new favorite workout shirt- at link.

Anybody tried it?

My wife and her workout buddies prodded me to try this stuff and I have to say- its a winner. I've tested it on a 3 days straight workout/hiking deal and so far the claim of "no stink" is incredibly accurate. I don't think it will displace merino for layering on cold weather hunts but the stuff is amazingly.

It stretches a bit more than the DryFit type stuff, wicks amazingly well, is feather light like silk with no binding or chafing- like I said, about the best workout shirt I own. I like that its cut a bit longer than the Nike and Underarmor stuff- and for sure the short knockoff stuff that rides up when doing pullups or military presses and such. It stays tucked in under a packbelt. I've only owned mine for a month but the gals tell me the stuff holds up well for years of wash and wear. Cost and getting past the whole 'chick clothing thing' is about the only downside. If you are confident in your masculinity...I recommend you give it a try.

Looks like a nice shirt, to rich for my blood for the gym.

Ibex Hooded Indie is my submission for best new baselayer...

Yep, that shit is NICE!

I'm a cross dresser to I guess, but LLM is big in the gym world and I picked it up from those guys.

It's funny you bring up LULU....I have been convinced for a very long time that KUIU is basically LULU. What I mean is the manufacture is the same. Look at the tags. Look at the fabrics. Look at the "ABC pant" and convince me it is not the Attack pant. Cut, seems, you name it. Extremely close. I have compared so many items to my KUIU....for a man that wants high end fabrics but hate KUIU, LULU is about as close as it gets (for the items that they offer - they are not a hunting company)

looks like a good shirt to me........

Sounds like a good shirt but for that price I will stick with the Merino.

That looks like a great hike in/out shirt.

Yeah, I get a couple cracks on another site....but once you give it your blessing....Lulu is golden- too funny Aron. Time to talk to them and get them to sponsor you, eh?

My go to hunting shirt for the past 4-5 years has been a X-static silver thread longsleeve camo shirt. I've worn it on a number of week long mountain hunts and it never smells. X-static silver thread is good stuff. That being said, I paid about $25 bucks for my shirt, not $65. The Lulu shirt looks really nice but I still wouldn't shell out $65 for a t-shirt. Might have to keep an eye out for a good sale though.
