I have a 3 month old baby and he's been backpacking 3 times. I am happy with my nursing tanks, and my warm down parka. However, I need something in between that allows for minimal air exposure. The half zips in base layers are not deep enough, and I can't find any lightweight full zips. Recommendations?

Temperatures in Northern California this spring/summer won't get below 40 or so.

A Large man's fluffy jacket, and modify the zip to undo from the bottom as well?

Cheers

Have joe at zpacks make one with a drop panel.

He could dress em up to look like breast pockets.

Um, what exactly are "nursing tanks?"

Nursing tanks are these:

They have an elastic neck and shoulders so they are easy to pull down.

I tried this on today and it is what I'm looking for but it is very expensive:

Lightweight, hoodie, thumploops, deep zip for easy access.

I like both the cycling jersey and buttondown recommendation, thank you!!

The Columbia women's Super Tamiami long sleeve shirt (linked to above) has snaps, not buttons.

Congratulations on the new baby!
