WARNING: Garbage quality! Need 150gsm? Shop other brands, save you money and time!
WARNING: It's LEMON! Stay away from!Survived only two washes. First wash was just fine, but after the second it developed bunch of holes in random places. T-shirt was washed as usual on our a fancy Bosch machine on "Wool" settings with other wool garnets. Others wool items by Wool&Prince and Smartwool (same 150gsm) are just fine. I have several same thickness 150gms t-shirts by Smartwool and they are just fine after many washes (as long as not put in a dryer), but not the case with this Wooly Closing Co. v-neck which is a simply shame on the company!Though it's a nice looking v-neck and was purchased to be used as a semi-fashion item on a special occasions while on ultra-light travel. Hopped that it would supplement my everyday smart-wool, icebreaker, and wool&prince, and it did but for only two single day trips :(It's truly garbage quality. I don't write reviews, but this t is has such outrageously horrible quality that others must be warned!Sub-quality 150gsm wool is used. Obviously no quality control. Intentional to save on cost? Dono. Scam?

developed holes after second wash !!
This is my first experience with merino shirts so I decided to go with Woolly brand because of positive review and relatively reasonable prices. So I decided to order 2 v-neck tee (150 GSM in marine color and 190 GSM in navy color ). In terms of fitting and odor control, both tees work as advertised. I found the ultralight shirt (150) very soft and breathable. I wore the shirt about 10 times before the first wash (hang it at night to breath helped very much to keep the shirt fresh the next day and prevent smell) However, after the first wash, the color starts to change a little bit to darkar shades and the shirt start pilling. After the second wash , I spotted some holes and tears and the fabric became fuzzy. On the over hand, the 190 shirt hold its shape much better (maybe because its thicker) but the shirt itself is a little bit itchy which is very acceptable for me. Overall, I'm happy to discover the benefits of merino shirts with this brand and I will buy again from them (190 GSM only) for hiking and field work because they are half the price of other higher quality merino brands.

Excellent light weight base layer. Very soft and comfortable.
Update: Feb 1, 2020. There was a rip by a shoulder seam. I have not washed the shirt and have always treated them gently. I returned this shirt and bought an Ice Breaker. The Woolly is softer, but not as sturdy.= = = = =First, some people complain about holes. Well . . . wool isn't as sturdy as cotton and it needs to be handled with care. That said, this is a great base layer T shirt. Very soft. So light weight that you could wear it in warm weather, however, if you sweat on it, it will be very apparent, so if you plan on summer wool, better get black colored base layers. I can wear this shirt 5 to 10 times before I wash it on the gentle/wool cycle in my front load washer, and I use cheap Walmart brand baby shampoo as the laundry soap. The lower laundry load might partially recoup some of the expense of this fine shirt. I dry it flat on a bath towel or over the back of a plastic chair. This shirt will be dry enough to wear in 4 hours in the dry winter or 8 hours in the humid summer.

Great everyday wear for a reasonable price
This is my second foray into smart wool (general term, not the trademark), and it's great. There's just enough stretch to the fabric to move comfortably. The benefits of wool certainly come through. The breathability and warmth together make it a personal climate-control wonder. It's really hard to get too cold or too hot in this thing. Also, the odor control is great too. I have some synthetic "wick-away" shirts, but they smell like a lockerroom by the end of the day. Not so here. I can't even really tell I've warn it.By the end of the day, I can tell I've been wearing wool (vs cotton or synthetics), but it's impressively soft and comfortable. Only scratchy to the tiniest bit. I think the more expensive options (icebreaker, smartwool TM) are softer, but for this price, it's a fantastic.

New Charcoal Color is awesome.
Wolly's new charcoal color is awesome. Not quite as dark as Icebreaker's "jet heather" color, but dark enough it's not going to show water and sweat stains in a really obvious way like the lighter "Grey" color Wolly has.I'm a big fan of plain Merino V-neck tees as the ultimate everyday travel top. I wore vees from Icebreaker and Wooly every day for 8 months in Southeast Asia and eastern Europe, hand washing every 3 days or so. They are comfortable, cool, and non-smelly. It's hard to find plain, business-casual-compatible merino tees, but this is a really solid choice at a reasonable price.The reason it's 4 instead of 5 for me is that they put that "Wolly" tag on the bottom of the hem, and the v-neck opening is the smallest of any in my wardrobe. It's not uncomfortably small for me (15.5" dress shirt neck size), but it's noticeably different.

Good shirt. Mind the care instructions.
This is a great shirt. I wore for a week backpacking and it was amazing. Super light and very cool to the touch on our skin. It didn't stick after a week despite never being washed. My only grip (and it's probably my fault because I cut off the care tag) but after a few washings in my HE front loading washer it has developed a few small holes in various places. Not enough for me to stop wearing it for outdoor use but enough that I wouldn't wear it out in public for a night on the town. FYI on weight mine in size medium came out to 4.7 oz.

All thumbs up. Perfect for travel.
Really nice Tee. Very soft & comfortable feel. Merino wool is great for travel clothes as well as around the town. No ordor even after wearing several days between washing (in one-bag carryon travel circles it's called maximun re-wearing :-) ).I bought my size and it fits like a comfy Tee. I've ordered additional ones to wear under a traditional shirt in a size smaller so I don't get extra bulk.The V neck isn't very deep for under other shirts but it's not as noticeable as crew neck undershirts and the comfort and lack of odor retention more than makes up for this slight flaw. Definitely recommend this Tee and company. Other merino wool tees aren't quite as soft and comfortable. I liked these so much I bought more and bought Woolly's merino wool socks too.

T shirt in lana merino Wooly
Il capo è ben rifinito; il peso che ho scelto è 150gr, in quanto, essendo una prima prova, non volevo che scaldasse troppo.In effetti è caldo ma ho deciso di prendere il modello con le maniche lunghe e tenere questo per quanto fa meno freddo.Così ho ordinato il modello con i bottoni e le maniche lunghe.Consiglio l'articolo in lana merino a tutti quelli che hanno esigenza di vestire leggero ma al tempo stesso riuscire a mantenere il calore del proprio corpo.

It was okay.
I ordered this to try the merino wool clothing, and opted with this product since others are twice the price. I wanted to see how the merino wool differs from ordinary t-shirts that you get from common stores since it got a lot of recommendarion. The t-shirt was thinner than I expected. I used this product twice on my trip to Japan. After that, i noticed that was already a tiny hole at the back of the t-shirt near its collar. I figured this is one of those cheap quality merino wools.
