Is it 'cool' for him to be seen in such an item??

I'd recommend a technical synthetic T-shirt rather than a vest - or if it's cold a long sleeve base layer. Of course if it's cold enough to want a bit of extra warmth, a Merino wool top by Howies for instance beats synthetics hands down for comfort.

Best base layers I've come across are MOIRA from Czech Republic... beats HH etc easily:)

HH lost it when they went for fashion sales. Performance wear quality declined at that point.

true to some extent, but my long sleeved lifa is still my number one choice for winter running. Good fit, warm but not hot, tight wrists but not too tight to push them up.

Agreed. And if really cold, a very thin cagoule. Perfect!

Still haven't got a 'proper' o top yet. Will be getting an AIRE one I think though. Not a Leeds Uni one (too late, plus isn't there a pink stripe due to misordering on the part of Supersaint?).
