Description

A versatile essential in any outdoor wardrobe, the Patagonia Capilene 2 Lightweight Crew for Men features open, highly breathable Capilene 2 knit fabric. The lightweight material allows for unhindered airflow and excellent wicking for endurance activities in warm to moderate temperatures. If you're comparing Capilene numbers, Capilene 2 is the fastest-drying Capilene baselayer available from Patagonia. Hikers and climbers like the low-bulk fabric and tapered fit because it layers well with practically any outerwear (Patagonia recommends pairing their Capilene pullovers with Capilene 3 or Capilene 4 fleece in frigid conditions). Patagonia gave their Capilene 2 Crew a curvilinear construction with seams that refuse to chafe beneath a pack or climbing sling. Capilene 2 is also made from quick-wicking, fast-drying 54% post-consumer recycled (and 100% recyclable) polyester that's treated with Gladiodor™natural odor control. In a recent research program, Common Threads Recycling Program demonstrated 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. When you consider 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 (those greenhouse gasses) reduction of 71%, versus creating that fiber from new raw material. It's a design that you can feel good about anywhere on the planet.

love this capilene!
November 15, 2011

This is a great base layer! It works well in temperatures from the upper 30's to the low 60's. I wear it under the R1 Patagonia layer in colder weather and alone in warmer weather. The colors are great and I haven't found any of them to be too sheer to wear alone. It washes well, holds its shape, and retains its color. I am 5'9", size 12, and prefer a large. Medium would work well for a slimmer fit when layered. I wore one of these everyday in Zion and Bryce in October!

Pros: Great design, Build quality, Lasts forever, Performance, Ease of use, Great value

I love this capilene crew - not only is it cheaply priced, but it's light, stretchy (AKA forgiving), great for layering, and versatile. I love Altrec!

Great for trekking
July 30, 2011

Excellent for trekking in warm/hot weather. Some colors are a tiny bit sheer for normal daily wear. I layered it with a Capilene 2 short sleeve shirt in the early mornings. Runs a tiny bit small; I'm normally a size XS in most brands, but take an S all around in Columbia gear.
