Peak Performance Graphz Top: Review

 

 

 

 

 

I’ve been on the hunt for another long sleeved layer for a while and so when I was sent the Graphz Top from Peak Performance, I had high expectations!

I’m a big fan of Peak Performance kit. They’re a Swedish brand that started when four friends realised that the snow sport market lacked good quality and stylish clothing.

I’ve made sure to use it for a number of different activities – cycling, running, climbing and walking – in order to truly put it to the test!

Firstly, this top is advertised in a number of places as both a base and a mid layer, so I wore it as both.

As a mid layer, I was very impressed. It fitted well and was true to size, it’s also incredibly comfortable and the sleeves were long enough (short sleeves is a problem I seem to find a lot, maybe I have clown arms?)

It has a high neck which didn’t feel too constricting and was comfortable too.

The product is marketed as fast wicking and quick drying and this is the only aspect I feel I have to criticise. As a mid layer, it was superb, but as a base layer it got wet within my vented jacket and stayed that way, meaning I had to take it off and change after a while as I got cold.

There’s not a lot more to say about this top really! It’s comfy, it works well as a mid layer and has proven to be very warm on chilly  autumnal days!

​It sells for £72.95 usually, but is currently on sale for £62.95 and I can recommend it wholeheartedly as a mid-layer!

I was sent this by Outdoor Supply – part of Etrias – and have to say I was so impressed with the speed it arrived.

* I was kindly sent this by Outdoor Supply, but as ever it is my 100% honest opinion.
