Isotoner Men's Brushed Top and Pants Base Layer Set, 2-Piece

I love the feel and protection I get from having them under my clothes. It's been cold with the wind blowing right through regular clothes. This protects me well outside %26 I can keep my thermostat at a lower temperature saving me some money. Didn't shrink during wash.

First off, I only paid $10 for the 2-Piece Base Layer Set - so it was definitely a bargain. I still think, objectively, that this is a great base layer combo. The fit is perfect for use as base layer or hanging-out-in-the-house wear. It's slim, but not excessively - I'm a 6'/170lb and usually take a medium. I ordered in that size and am wearing the item now - fit is A . The fabric is stretchy and soft - like of a thick surf-shirt somehow was made of cotton (I have no idea which polymer the fabric actually consists of...).. The sleeve length is perfect, stopping at exactly my wrist. I probably sound like I've been drinking the Isotoner Kool-Aid but the elasticity is also on point for a base layer - it conforms to the body without feeling constraining in any way. Another nice thing I have found is that the trim-and-stretchy nature of the garments means that there is not place for heat to escape nor cold to intrude. The coverage is total! Heat retention is above average for a lightweight base layer - if I had to guess, it feels more midweight-level in that area. I started to write a conclusion but no way - if I'm not getting paid then this is all you get. Very happy with this Isotoner base layer set. If these can handle washing without degradation, then my eyes will never stray. PS - I now deeply regret purchasing two sets of waffle-knit Indera(?)-brand base layers. They are ok but not 1/3rd as comfortable as these are and don't retain heat as well, either
