Thin grid fleece

for a grid base layer either the Core Lwt you have or the OR Echo, both are offered in 1/4 zip as well as hoody

if your looking for something a little heavier than those, look at the Capilene Mid-weight, heavier yet- Capilene Thermal weight
 

Been wanting to try this out, little steep in price but looks very lightweight.
 
Pardon the interruption but has recent technology removed the stink factor from Capilene?
I used to run and bike in a Patagonia capilene base layer before merino was even a thing.
I liked the way it performed in keeping moisture away but it could get ripe pretty quickly.

I bought a new Patagonia Capilene hoody last year and wore hiking a couple days a week over the summer and it hasn't developed the funk.

it's better than it was for sure; not in the realm of merino- but slowly gaining some ground
 
I Love the high route grid fleece. But it’s not really, really thin. Kuiu peloton is thinner, but not grid fleece. Patagonia various base layers are where I would be looking. I usually run a base t shirt(wool, Sitka lightweight, etc…) and either the Kuiu peloton 97 or high route fleece. Kuiu is less durable.

I do remember my capilene getting pretty funky quickly. I'm sold on merino for the base layer
 
If you can find a kuiu chinook jacket, that’s thin, nylon-based grid fleece with built in pit zips. Pretty unique, very durable, and very breathable
 
I'd like to see a 1/4 zip sitka core lightweight without a hood that's just like their core lightweight hoody. Seems like they only offer that in merino, I'd be wearing this over a merino base
 

Lightest, thinnest grid shirt that I know of.

Looks just like what I'm thinking of thanks
 
Over this past winter I tried an Eddie Bauer high route grid fleece and a Patagonia R1, between the two the R1 had a lighter weight material and felt a little better made. I thought it made an excellent base layer and seemed to breathe pretty well. They're both a little pricey for what they are, but they both seem to be on sale pretty frequently throughout the year.

I've got this peice and have been very disappointed with it. I much prefer every other grid fleece I own, Kuiu 97 and 200 or heck even a heavy weight merino. This Canis peice is a swing and a miss in my opinion.
