Love the sweater but...
I love Icebreaker and I also love this sweater however, I had a few issues. I ordered the medium and it was so tight ( I am 5'10 and weigh 130lbs ) that I returned it for the size L. Size L fitted well but considering I am of lean build, I would have expected it to be a bit loose which it was not. After only wearing the top a few times, I noticed the stitching was coming undone around one of the thumb loops. This irritated me since the clothing is expensive. I returned the item for a replacement size L and it feels somewhat larger than the previous size L so now the fit is baggy under the arms. I will deal with it but have found with other Icebreaker items that the sizing is inconsistent ( and I own way too much Icebreaker clothing than any one person should!)

body fit x2
I loved the color and design of this sweater and bought it for a trip to California. I own lots of the Icebreaker line and not one of them fit the way this sweater fits. It is so snug and tight it could only be worn alone as a base layer. In fact I had to adjust it after it was on just to get it to fit right and it still had a bubble that stuck out on the gray ribbing under the arm. I am 5' 4" and 135lb. I always wear a medium. There is know way you could wear this as a pullover sweater as stated. I am disappointed as this is a lovely item. I wish I had returned it.

Poorly Sewn
I got this top in the pea/nickel color, and the fabric and style are great. However, two things were very disappointing: 1) the neck seam on the inside of the neck was very rough and scratchy, and 2) more importantly, the seams on the front of the top were poorly sewn, so there were two (very sizable and noticeable) inverted puckers of fabric on each side of the top, right above my hips. It looks terrible, and you would have to stitching and resew the entire seam to fix it. Otherwise, it was great, and I really wanted to keep it, but it's just too much investment on an already pricey top. I own several other icebreaker tops, and love them all. Too bad, and uncharacteristic for the brand. PS: I'm 5'4", 135, 34D, and the medium fit great with plenty of room for a layer underneath.
