All year for me, a sleeveless merino top makes a great base layer under a dainese jacket as well.
Yes it gets wet, but it stays warm.
When they start making sheep from petrol based products I'll switch.
And just because some "top biking dudes" don't rate it, doesn't mean its not valid.
Too much "I say what I like, and I like what I bloody well say" attitude on this forum, as usual.
I think its called freedom of choice?
If it works for you, use it, if not, don't, but don't try and convince people who haven't tried it its no good for them
