Tern Ultralight Merino Wool Tee

One of my favorite Tees

One of my favorite tees, super light and handles moisture like no other. With most of ov gear the durability is there but imo not going to last as long as your average synthetic or cotton tee.

Tern Ultralight Merino Wool Tee

Shirt pills & shreds easily

We got two of these shirts for a hike on the AV1 in Italy backpacking for 8 days. The first one we washed on delicate in a garmet bag. Wore around the house for maybe an hour. It had weird wear stretch marks after washing it on cold, delicate. And pulled pulling. Odd. Outdoor Vitals was kind & replaced it. However, the replacement we took on the 70 mile AV1 hike. Bad idea. The Skyline 30 fast pack straps (which we also got from OV) tore and pilled the shirt on the lower back areas in about 8 hours. The shirt fit well, men’s medium on a 175lb 6’2 man. It is smooth and does not smell after hiking, and it dries fast. But the durable factor is definitely not there. Do not recommend for anything active. Also, Skyline 30 bag also tore up the back of a 100% wool shirt as well on the trip, so we do acknowledge part of the wear can be just the rough straps on the fast pack. But this shirt was having pilling and stretching marks before we put a backpack on it.
