Our ratings (out of 10)

1 to 10, compared with the whole market. Each says what it's based on. How we score

Weight

From maker's figures 8/10

How much it adds to your pack. 8: Clearly better than most.

Montane's UK page gives 160 g with no size (its US page gives about the same in ounces), which is in the 160–199 g band. GO Outdoors and Blacks print 150 g in their copy, which would be the 5 band. That figure is a shop figure, not Montane's, so we band Montane's 160 g. The two differ by 10 g.

Warmth

Estimate from maker's specs: fibre (no fabric weight published) 3/10

How much the fabric insulates next to your skin. Heavier fabric is warmer and slower to dry. 3: Below average. Fine for some trips, not others.

Estimate from maker's specs

In short

Good for

  • Cool mornings and high-effort climbs where a quarter zip lets you vent heat
  • Three-season hillwalking and trail running as a base layer
  • Multi-day trips where a light synthetic top is rinsed and dried overnight

Strengths

  • 160 g, light for a long-sleeve zip-neck top
  • Quarter-length YKK zip with an internal zip guard, for venting
  • 100% recycled polyester (APEX ECO) with POLYGIENE odour treatment, per Montane
  • Low-profile flatlocked seams, per Montane
  • Covered by Montane's lifetime guarantee against faults in workmanship and materials

Weaknesses

  • Montane publishes no fabric weight, so warmth is an estimate, not a reviewed score
  • Montane gives no size for its 160 g weight, and shop copy says 150 g
  • No independent test we could tie to the current men's top, so comfort, odour and durability are estimates, not reviewed scores
