I have purchased their baselayers twice.
1. one of their cheapest, no-frills options, top+bottom. It fits me well. Being synthetic, it dries fast. Quite durable.
2. winter underpants. well, they are warm underpants, compression fit.

I really don't know what can I say about their products that you would not know yourself after examining the products in your store :) I never heard of quality problems (here, in Ukraine, they are well known, but most 'outdoor' people can not afford their products). They are a good brand, but, I guess, like many other European brands, they are not very well known outside the EU, (or even outside their countries).

I've used them a lot for running clothes…again, no frills, synthetic, basic, works. I'm transitioning to wool as my pocketbook allows, but they've served me pretty well for running.

I have been using a craft thermo for years. It's a good synthetic thermo. It's pretty good value for money.

I've used Craft mostly for cycling, but I and others I know have been very pleased with it. All well-made, highly functional, long-lasting stuff.

Best,

I could of course see its a functional syth base layer etc

how does it compare to say PATA? can you comment on warmth/breathability/weight?

They have several products, so an apples and apples comparison is complex. In general, they make excellent clothing. Definitely costs like Patagonia! I associate the brand with cross country skiing.

so what i can gather is that their midweight "be active" stuff is comparable to ~Cap2 and works well for 50F~30F for hiking?
