Great product review! Your insights were helpful, and I’m considering investing in this soon. Just a heads-up, though - I had some trouble listening with headphones since one ear seemed to have more chatter than the other. A more balanced audio would make it perfect! Keep up the excellent work!
Excellent video. Currently looking for an Icebreaker long sleeve to wear as a base layer but also in south Texas where lightweight and breathable is top importance.
I found the IB stuff I bought (long sleeve top, long johns, boxers) quite disappointing - the wool still felt scratchy, which is a dealbreaker for me when it comes to my base layers. Just ordered the Arc RHO hybrid baselayer which is their phasic strech fleece with wool panels. Hopefully this will be better!
Have used Icebreaker since founded in NZ and made here. The Oasis is a poor fit and no thumb loops. You will see the fit on you the sleeves are too short. Thanks for your review 🤙
That is good feedback. Much appreciated. I still wind up using this baselayer quite a bit. But I do see where you are coming from on the fit and thumb loops. Super cool that you are NZ based! Is it true there are 8 merino sheep for evey 1 person? I was just listening to a podcast on Allbirds (How I built this podcast) and they mentioned that. Anywho, I appreciate the good insights and conversation!

Hope the Deadbird baselayer is good to you!
I think Smartwool is a bit more durable & comfortable. Icebreaker is pretty solid tho 👍🏼👍🏼
Thanks for the input!
I got the Anatomica Longsleeve 💯👍

Seemed to be a bad fit and too hot
Fit doesn’t seem good, I agree.
