GoLite Wildwood Trail Longsleeve 1/4-Zip Run Top Review
This fitted long sleeve top with a UPF 50+ rating and half zip down the front for ventilation is feminine and performs with the quality one expects from GoLite. The quick drying and wicking properties of the Cocona Minerale™ fabric makes this is a four-season piece of gear.
Don’t let the name of this top fool you, it can be used for multiple sports from skate skiing and hiking to snowshoeing and road running. Although the fitted fit line from GoLite is meant to be worn alone, this top worked great as a base layer when I hit the snowshoe trail this past week. The fit is close to the skin but not tight and doesn’t ride up when bending over to tie your shoes or put on your snowshoes. Under a vest, the top left me chafe free and my body temp regulated during a run on my favorite trail.
Zipper side pockets are well placed for quick unzipping and grabbing of nutrition, keys or gloves. The lightweight construction makes this top pack down small to fit into a backpack and takes up next to nothing space and weight wise in your luggage.
The GoLite Wildwood Trail Longsleeve 1/4-Zip Run Top retails for $55 and is available in multiple colors including Jade, Coral, White, Sky Blue and Granite. For more info on GoLite visit Golite.com
I have quite a bit of GoLite gear and have no complaints. Right now I own the Hooded Roan Down Jacket, the Hydroclutch, the Hydrospeed, the Tumalo Pertex® 2.5-Layer Storm Jacket, and the Adrenaline 3-season mummy bag. The bag is really quite warm!
