Rho LT Zip Neck Men's

This item is sold as a base layer which is rather confusing to me. Due to its thickness and weight, i wear this as a mid layer, over actual base Rho base layer and it works perfectly. Due to lots of elastine, I didn’t have to size-up.

I have previously purchased 2x Rho LT Zip Neck (2020 / 21 era design in Small) and figured i'd add one more to the collection - the Black Sapphire colour is truly gorgeous. Unfortunately this design appears to have come at the cost of 'consistent sizing'. Although the enclosed sized chart still proclaims the same dimensions for the Small as in 2020 / 21(and i too have remained the same dimensions) - this new Rho LT in Small is easily a whole size bigger at least. Sadly it isn't even remotely figure hugging / fitted - as a good base layer should be - it's more like a baggy fleece. So disappointing - and now makes me rather distrustful of the size chart that accompanies other products i might have had my on!

Nice base layer with a tight athletic fit. Very odor resistant so far.

I use this layer to rest after a hard day in the mountains when I return to the shelter for the night. Very soft to the skin.

Very versatile can be work and a base layer or top depending on the weather. Fits great and has washes really well.

Produit très confortable pour le temps frais. J'ai 3 exemplaires que j'utilise pour la randonnée, le vélo et le ski. Pas trop chaud lors d'activité aérobique. Vraiment je le recommande. Celui avec capuchon est au même niveau, même plus pratique ;)

As all my arcteryx clothing the fit and design features come together to produce the perfect functional piece of outdoor clothing

Having recently bought around 4 baselayers for all round use, in comparison with one excels. Merino blends are good, but even though fully synthetic the quality of this one elevates it above most. The usual Arc'teryx construction adds to its durability and spot on feeling. Whilst 'fitted' this is a little looser that some other athletic fits, but it's close enough and form fitting whilst allowing for full movement and extension. Highly recommended

This is the perfect top.for all requirements. Would wear it anywhere.

Wonderfu quality and smell, and very suitable product.

This base layer is very warm for its weight and i would definitely recommend it. I work as ski patrol which means wether i like it or not i have to stay outside when it’s freezing cold and this base layer has helped me stay warm a ton. It’s super comfy and stretchy plus the wool inner lining keeps me warm almost all the time. The price point is fairly high but if you spend the majority of your days outdoors like me, your future self will definitely thank you with this purchase. Beware the fit of it is a little bigger than most other base layers so if you want it skin tight size down. Overall i’m happy with my purchase and glad i didn’t cheap out because you get what you pay for with this one.

Great base layer for downhill skiing. Nice fit, warm, comfortable. also wear it by itself X-C skiing and hiking- -warm enough for active use. Plan to use it rock-climbing in spring/ fall and hiking 14ers year round. 5'10", Fits true to size.

J'ai acheté deux Rho LT Zip Neck pour le travail. L'extensibilité du vêtement est idéal et le tissu reste beau malgré les différents passages à la laveuse. Beau passe-partout et d'un confort exemplaire. Je vais acheté de nouveau

I bought the Rho LT in M size and I found it in line with my expectations aside that probably a S size fit me at its best. I’m 184cm and 78kgs, normally dressing a L (50EU) but this M is too large for me.

Really nice base layer. Great for snowboarding. Fit a little big

Perfect base. Running, lifting, skiing, climbing, work, lounging exc.

This top is amazing, the fabric is incredibly soft and stretch. Its warm for its weight and still very breathable. I do like the pocket. I can put my iPhone in there during the winter and with a running vest on it stays warm and doesn't bounce around.Sizing is consistent with other Arcteryx pieces. I initially bought a large after having read several reviews saying they fit tight. It fit but was quite baggy, would have been fine for just a casual shirt. Luckily Arcteryx has a great return policy. I got the medium and the fit is way better. Its not to tight that it couldn't be worn as a casual top, but still snug enough to wear as a base layer.

I recently purchased the Arc'teryx Rho LT ZIP Neck and have been thoroughly impressed with its performance. As a base layer shirt, it is incredibly comfortable and warm, and it feels like nothing I've ever tried before. It has quickly become my go-to base layer for all my winter activities on the mountain. One of the things that really sets this shirt apart is its ability to resist odor. Even after wearing it for seven straight days, it still doesn't smell. This is a huge advantage, as I've found that many other base layers start to smell after just a few days of use. Overall, I highly recommend the Arc'teryx Rho LT ZIP Neck. It is a top-quality base layer shirt that is comfortable, warm, and resists odor like nothing I've ever tried before. If you're in the market for a new base layer, this is definitely worth checking out.

This material is amazing. 24-7 for 10 days. And even then I really didn’t want to take it off. The pocket smart phone thing is actually humorous. Great for ear pods lip balm but iPhone 12. Even if it fit I wouldn’t want that much weight in that pocket. Regardless the pocket is a nice touch and I’m happy with. This with heavier weight brother is my go to dress for almost near everything. From a Grade IV to a hot date. I’m good.

Best fitting and wicking baselayer ive ever used! Thicker than previous RHO which makes it great for stand alone! The only thing id change would be the laminated pocket. Wish it were sewn. Forcefield color is much better in person. Glad everyone skipped over it so i could have a few items in this color!

Ive just recieved this top and i am dissapointed that is doesnt fit me as i would like,the quality and workmanship is great,but the fit for me lets it down.I like base layers to fit snug they do the job better wicking sweat from the skin.This top fits my shoulders and forearms,but baggy around the chest and waist,it fits more regular than trim in my case,im 5ft.7 140lbs chest 38 waist 31.5,broad shoulders.An xs would have been perfect,if arcteryx bring in size xs in this i will happily order one.

I couldn't wait to write a review for this. The RHO is a superb pullover in both cool conditions as a stand alone and as a base layer under a down jacket. Bike riding has been my form of exercise during the pandemic. I ride in cold, windy conditions often in New York City so the RHO has been tested. I was debating whether to try this version or the updated cold weather version but went with this because of the chest pocket. I don't own my own bike, I use Citibike in NYC and need my phone to access the bikes. If it is a cool day but not cold and I want to wear just this without a jacket, I need a place to stash my phone. And this does the job. I have an iPhone 11 with a case. I honestly can't fathom what the other version of this can do that this one can't in cold weather. I was blown away at how warm it kept my upper body in cold, windy conditions while under a down jacket. I was also amazed how quickly it dries off. I definitely sweat when I ride and my t-shirts are usually clung to me. When I take these off I expect them to be soaked as well. But they are not. I wore this during a ride on cool/nearly cold day under a solid fall jacket I have and what a difference. Partway through the ride I really wanted to test it as a solo piece so I pulled over and took off the jacket and wore just this for about 30 mins in mid to low 40's. It was pretty darn solid. I would not wear this alone in any temperatures below mid to low 40's but at these temps and above, you can get away with it depending on how hot or cold you run. I am glad I was able to try these on in a store because I had read many reviews about sizing. These definitely run small. I am 5'7 about 150lbs with a 33 waist. I am pretty trim. I put a Medium on and had to wedge it on to me. The Large is great. It's trim enough with just enough room that you aren't suffocating. You can't put a long-sleeve shirt underneath though. That's my one worry is that if I accidentally place them in the dryer then it may shrink them down significantly. If you are between sizes, absolutely go up. I honestly think that if I had bought an XL and dried it, it would probably fit me well, that's how smallish these run. The sleeve length is good, it comes down to right around my wrists, maybe a tad below. The collar is excellent. I zip it all the way up with no issue and it is quite effective at keeping my neck warm. I liked this so much that I checked the website of the local shop I purchased this at to see if they had another in stock because everything was sold out online. They did and I bought another because I know I am going to be using both for several years.

I've had my RHO LT for close to 10 years now and it is still great. It's my go to choice for any hard wearing activities because it will outlast merino 10 to 1. Basically fall and spring climbing this is my go to top. Surprisingly little stink for synthetic too. The stretch is great and it doesn't stretch out, even after 10 years. The pocket is kinda pointless but adds a bit of style.

Love this shirt. Warm enough yet not bulky. Just keeps temp stable. Perfect

Bought one last winter and loved it. I tend to heat up pretty fast and the Rho LT keeps me dry and warm. Just ordered 2 more now that they are back in stock. Note that the garment fits pretty tight. I usually wear medium in Arcteryx tops but the large is perfect. So consider going up a size.
