Woolrich Review: Womens Garnet Peak Half Zip

The Garnet Peak Half Zip is a nice mid layer for cool fall mornings or an added layer come wintertime. Woolrich has recently added performance tops to their clothing line for the fall. The Garnet Peak is made from Cocona fiber technology that naturally provides odor resistance and wicking away of sweat. Testers liked the lightweight feel, ease of stashing in a pack on a hike, and its’ quick drying ability. Testers also thought that the sizing and cut were not as flattering as other half zip performance tops. Testers found the sleeves to be a tad to short and the body of the shirt to run big and not true to size. Overall, the Garnet Peak Half Zip has some promising qualities but the top could use a bit of tweaking for the following season. For more information, please visit Woolrich.com
