Mojo J-  I have a MB long sleeve super merino wool light weight crew I like very much. Large is about 5.4 oz & extremely comfortable.  I will say, at least in white/cream color it is translucent – therefore my SO is not a fan ;).  My primary usage is dedicated sleep shirt (& backup base layer).  Very warm & breathes pretty well – but I haven’t tested that much as primarily a sleep shirt.  Happy with the value.  Steve
Hey Steve, thanks for your feedback. Would you say it’s a tight or loose fit. I am 6.2 and 165 lbs if that helps in any way.
Tight.  But very comfortable & not restricting.  My large, at 5’10” 175 w 33 waist fits perfect for a next to skin layer. You may want a medium.
Thanks for your feedback. I appreciate it
hope it helps.
Check Montbell Japan – they have TONS more base layers (and all other products too) compared to the US site. Make sure to pay attention to the japanese sizing
