This shirt is incredibly lightweight, and the elderberry purple color is beautiful. I am 5'5" and about 120 lbs, and the XS fit me like a glove. I wanted a next-to-skin fit; if you don't, size up. I used it as a base layer underneath my jackets and other layers for a 5-day trip in heavy snow in June at the Grand Tetons National Park. It dries very quickly, and did a great job keeping sweat off of me. Despite the statement in the product details, it did not protect well against odors (if you're going on a long backpacking trip, just an FYI). Its UV protection is minimal, so I'd use it only as a base layer if the sun's out. Overall - comfortable, no chafing, lightweight, wicking.

Bought this for my wife since she wanted a new shirt to hike and run in and she was happy with it. Fits good and keeps her warm on cooler runs without her getting too hot.

Looking for a summer shirt- that will be lightweight, breathable and protects you from the sun? I have fair skin and I am always looking for lightweight shirts to wear in the summer heat. I can wear this mountain biking, hiking, trail running or sitting on the river. It's comfortable and helps my stay cool and not worry constantly about getting a terrible sunburn!

I love this shirt so much I purchased two of them in long sleeve and one in the short sleeve version. It's my go-to shirt for hiking and fishing in the summer. It offers great sun protection while being super light and breathable. Not to mention the purple is such a deep flattering shade. It runs true to the size chart.

I'm careful about the sun, so I wanted a spring/summer running and hiking shirt that was breathable but provided full coverage of my arms. This fit the bill perfectly. I've also used it as a breathable layer backcountry skiing. I've really like the versatility so far!

This shirt is perfect for when you don't necessarily want sleeves, but need them. It is great for those warm summer days hiking, it will keep the sun off you and make those backpack straps a little bit more bearable.

I love this shirt. I couldn't believe how light weight it was and so comfortable! Really a great cool shirt that keeps the sun off me while kayaking.

This is the most light weight shirt I have ever owned. Not the most flattering fit, but I think that's the point - it fits loosely around the core and definitely keeps you cool while out in the hot weather. I bought it in Gem and the color is spectacular.

The long sleeve Echo shirt from OR is fantastic for wicking moisture, keeping me cool and protecting me from the sun. It is a light, airey fabric that even has an anti-stink feature - you gotta love that! Soft fabric does not feel like "plastic," the way that some of my other synthetics do. This one is a clear winner in my drawer!

After chatting up the online person I found this amazing shirt for work. I hike daily for work in variable terrain and weather wearing rain gear which can result in overheating and lots of dampness from sweat. Once I started wearing the Echo T-shirt that all changed. It regulates heat well so you can look forward to not having damp areas yet it also provides warmth. It feels amazing and is quite stylish. Mainly I use it for all types of hiking with and without layers. I must admit the odor control feature is wonderful, the longest I went without washing the shirt was two weeks and it still felt clean and smelled good. Great feature if you plan on long backpacking trips. Overall, this is a must have for your closet for any activity.
