Review on Minus33 Merino Wool Ticonderoga Lightweight by Matt Reid

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Quality fabric and construction, comfortable fit.

I have worn several brands of merino wool on a daily basis for several years and have felt that each is superior to the others. For me, Minus33 stands out as a quality leader. Their lightweight shirt weighs 170g while most other brands weigh 150g, and therefore the shirt is noticeably heavier (albeit slightly warmer). The neck and arm openings have that perfect amount of stretch that other brands tend to overlook, and it keeps you comfortable. They are also sewn very well with no visible loose threads or weak points. My only criticism is that the fit is a bit uncomfortable, like the feeling of putting a shirt on backwards, but to a lesser extent. It's much more subjective to the owner, so it's hard to rate. but there is something to consider. In general, I really like Minus33.

Pros
  • TECHNICAL DETAILS: 100% Merino wool 17.5 micron, 170 g/m2 Jersey construction with flatlock seams. Clothing weight size L = 8 oz. (226 grams). UPF Value 25
Cons
