Our most versatile baselayer for the broadest range of temperatures, quick-wicking Capilene 3 has a brushed interior that retains heat and a smooth jersey exterior that provides superior glide for snag-free layering. The slightly fitted silhouette affords a bulk-free fit without compromising mobility. Shoulder and side seams on the tops are thoughtfully placed to reduce friction from a climbing sling, pack or luggage straps. The look is streamlined. Made of quick-wicking, fast-drying and insulative 64% post-consumer recycled (and 100% recyclable) Capilene 3 polyester, with Gladiodor natural odor control. Imported. Common Threads Recycling ProgramResearch shows that the environmental impact of recycling worn-out Capilene base layers into new polyester fiber is significantly lower than making that same fiber from virgin materials. Taking into account that worn-out garments are diverted from trash incinerators, making new polyester fiber from recycled garments results in an energy savings of 76% and a CO2 emissions [greenhouse gasses] reduction of 71%, versus creating that fiber from new raw material. Capilene Core PerformanceCapilene base layers afford quick-drying, next-to-skin moisture management for all activities in all conditions ? from high-altitude bivies to sun-soaked water sports.

Customer Reviews for the Capilene Patagonia Women's 3 Crew

Snowski - January 22, 2011

Great base layer
Great product...warm enough on cold days and not too warm on warmer days. Wicks moisture away so you stay dry. The perfect base layer for any winter day.

Outdoor work-cap is great!
I work outdoors for a living-the ability to layer is important-this layer is not bulky, breathes well, and is toasty. Alone the capilene 3 is altogether toasty also. Excellent choice for those who have to deal with the climate.....

Great All Around Cool Weather Top
I wear this top for my winter equestrian activities, a stand alone piece which functions just as well as a baselayer. Keeps me warm but wicks moisture away as I exercise. Nice looking, fits well.

Great Layering Top
I love this Capilene top. The fit is very trim and flattering. And it makes a wonderful baselayer for very cold or damp days. Alone the crew neck makes a great looking top over shorts, pants or jeans.

Excellent baselayer but not for extreme cold
I love all things Patagonia and I stand by their trusty baselayers. However, I recently took this on a winter trip to Europe and unfortunately there was an extreme cold snap (about 0 to -5 F) and it was not enough even with multiple layers. Although I think only a heavy down jacket would have kept me warm.
