The fabric breathes about as well as saran wrap, it stretches out of shape if you look at it funny, and after two seasons of light use is pilled almost beyond recognition. IIRC, it's also Chinese, regardless of Woolistic's touting of their Swiss origins. My Kucharik, Santini, RG Sport,Smartwool, Canari and no-name Colombian jerseys are all superior in every respect. On a scale of 1-5, I'd give Woolistic a -1.

Really? This is the first negative review I've ever heard regarding woolistic, and I've looked around a good bit. I'm about ready to pull a trigger on one myself. Can anyone else here vouch for this opinion or maybe offer a rebuttal?
