I find they keep me dry, pong free and are very durable.

I am not sure how warm they are as I only use them in summer.

The long sleeve zip necks are meant to be reasonably warm I think? Not going to be mega warm @215g net but still.

(a different sort of the sports wool to the older bionics.).

I've been using one for a couple of months now.  Wicks well, quite warm [especially when zipped right up] and looking good after a couple of washes.  The build quality is very good: just looks and feels well made. And the smell factor is low- not quite as low as pure merino, but very acceptable.

Mine is a non zip long sleeve. It's comfortable, wicks well, seems durable enough and smells less than any of my other synthetic base layers. cool enough in summer and is a decent base in winter.

I just picked one up in the sale. Tried it on briefly and feels nice, could do with ever so slightly longer sleeves though (i'm 6'3 and bought a large)

Wearing it this weekend in the peaks so will know more then

Fwiw I'm 6'2 (and a medium-ish build), and always go for XL in Montane*, as they definitely tend to be a closer fit than many other brands.
