are these the same:
Silkweight and 1
Lightweight and 2
Midweight and 3
Heavyweight and 4

I thought so, but why are some Capilene t-shirts listed as
Capilene® 2 T-shirt and some listed as Capilene® Lightweight T-Shirt?
FYI, the lightweight t just showed up on the web specials page. $11 and all sizes are in stock, and you can use the code N6565 for free shipping.

I couldnt get the hyperlink to work, here is the link to the lightweight shirt

The Capilene has raglan sleeves and a different collar. And they use slightly different polyester weights and compositions . Thanks for the sale link and shipping code.

Patagonia has changed the names of there Capilene shirts.
1 is the old silkweight
2 is the old lightweight
3 is the old midweight
4 is the old expedition weight.

Here is a better chart from Patagonia

Silkweight=Cap 1
Lightweight=Cap 2
Mediumweight=Cap 3
Heavyweight and R.5=Cap 4
Expeditionweight= El Cap

This is a rough approximation from Patagonia as some of the materials have changed but that is what the lady on the phone said.
