Is it the same as the current merino jersey line? I’ve had my long sleeve for 2 or 3 years and is still going very strong despite getting a lot of use including wearing backpacks on commutes etc. I know they also have an “ultralight” merino model which might well be a whole lot flimsier like I’ve seen people lamenting about much more expensive Castelli lightweight merino tops as well (ie holes and unstitching around the pocket seams if carrying anything more than a gel etc)
Because of that I was mostly gravitating towards the dhb as my experience is very good and the price is good too!
I currently have a M which I bought second hand forgetting my LS is actually a L and unsurprisingly it’s a tight fit, so haven’t ridden with it to figure out what temperature range it would suit.
Never buy cheap merino, as it won’t last. I got a dhb top from Wiggle and whilst it was cheap, it lasted a summer before falling apart.
