Patagonia Women's Capilene 1 Scoop

Patagonia Women's Capilene 1 Scoop

Silky-soft Capilene 1 is the lightest of all our technical baselayers. A master at managing moisture to keep you cool during active use in warm to sweltering conditions, it also helps protect from the sun and acts as an excellent quick-wicking baselayer beneath heftier Capilene or wool insulation when the mercury plummets. Made from 100% post-consumer recycled (and 100% recyclable) Capilene 1 polyester, with Gladiodor natural odor control. Made in USA. Common Threads Recycling ProgramResearch shows that the environmental impact of recycling worn-out Capilene base layers into new polyester fiber is significantly lower than making that same fiber from virgin materials. Taking into account that worn-out garments are diverted from trash incinerators, making new polyester fiber from recycled garments results in an energy savings of 76% and a CO2 emissions [greenhouse gasses] reduction of 71%, versus creating that fiber from new raw material. Capilene Core PerformanceCapilene base layers afford quick-drying, next-to-skin moisture management for all activities in all conditions ? from high-altitude bivies to sun-soaked water sports.

Great for trail running
The fit is great, but runs slightly small for Patagonia, especially the sleeves. It is a comfortable piece to run in alone or layer, depending on the temperature. The scoop neck is flattering.

perfect all-around layer
love the soft, lightweight feel of this baselayer. keeps you cool or warm - whatever you need. looks great in town, too! i'm 5'6 145 lb and ordered a M (what I usually wear) and it works alone, but if I order again, I'll order a S for a closer fitting baselayer.

Love it!
Great shirt! The capilene 1 is a lightweight wicking shirt that works very well as a base layer under fleece, as well as on its own in warmer weather. It wicks away sweat and water thoroughly and quickly(my camelback decided to explode at the trailhead this morning and the capilene shirt kept me from being a soggy/unhappy camper). The shirt is comfortable without being too baggy. I would suggest purchasing a darker color, as the white one seems to have stains in the lower back/armpit areas after only 2 wears. Otherwise, this is a great purchase and I will be buying more capilene products!
