The Wool Review: Patagonia Men's Merino Air Crew

This is an incredibly warm and light base layer.  It was a cold day at Crater Lake with a modest wind.  The Patagonia Merino  Air felt comfortable and shockingly warm. The two reportable downsides are that the unconventional 'merino air' fabric has a foreign waffle feel, and that it is very expensive.  It appears to be durable, but the jury is out until is survives an entire season of real wear.  From a warmth, weight, and aesthetic point of view, this is a wonderful base layer, nearly living up to the considerable hype from Patagonia.  Overall, a highly recommended base layer with a steep price.
