    These long sleeves are amazing. I wear them all winter. They're temp regulating so even if temps go up or down you stay comfortable even when sweaty! Naturally antimicrobial, so they don't stink: I wear a shirt for 3 runs between washes. I just hang it to dry and wear it again tomorrow! I've got three of them that I've had for 6 years now and they're all good as new. I've ran almost every 100 mile and cold weather ultra with one of them on. I take one on every backpack trip. One of them went to Cocodona and got some wear there also. Awesome shirt.
