Columbia Men's Discontinued PFG Bahama II Long Sleeve Shirt

My friend LOVES these shirts, and I was happy to find the blue color! This shirt is nylon, but has the crisper texture, not like the similar shirt that is polyester and has a silkier feel. Fabric is breathable and dries really quickly.These shirts wear like IRON! Seem to last forever. Great design features with the mesh back flap.The fit is accurate. Color doesn't fade. Packs and unpacks looking great.

Wow. What a shirt!We have a large yard that I mow and maintain myself... the downside is herds of deer, ticks they bring, mosquitoes, and biting flies. Even when it's moderately hot, I try to wear long pants and sleeves for sun and bug protection. Had. Een wearing Dickies style cotton work shirts... but they don't breathe, become sweat soaked, and are too heavy for heat and humidity.This Columbia shirt smashed expectations. It's really well made, tough, but ultra lightweight and breathable with tons of vents and pockets. Buying a second for when the other is in the wash.If you want sun and bug protection when it's hit and humid out, look no further.***Warning: as other reviews mentioned, size DOWN. I'm 5'10 175lbs, a 16-1/2 or 16 dress shirt, and the large I originally ordered was like a tent on me. Medium fits great with a little room to spare.Get the shirt and get outdoors. You'll love it and look pretty good too.

I see these shirts everywhere in Florida and didn’t want to be just another middle-aged guy with this shirt. Guess what? After trying several different hot weather shirts, I was forced to admit this shirt is perfect for the hot, humid weather here. They are light, comfortable, and versatile. They are well made and come in at a reasonable price point for the quality.I also tried the Tamiami II, but I find I prefer the slightly stiffer fabric of the Bahama II. It is still feather light and cool, but feels better against my skin. In order the long sleeves as I often need to protect my arms from the sun. The easy-to-use safari straps in the sleeves work well to quickly convert them to short sleeves.They are full cut - you may need to order a size smaller, but I enjoy the loose fit. I tried competitor Kühl shirts, but they are all sized for long distance runners under 30. I am not *that* overweight, but this shirt is just perfect for my needs.Yeah, I am now just another guy with a Columbia PFG shirt, and I see why they are so popular. I surrender.

Nice shirt and the color is very nice. Remeber sizing on these shirts alway run one size to big.

I think it's about as cool as you can get and still be protected from the sun. It has large chest pockets, but while they bellowed the sides, they didn't bellow the bottom. It probably looks better, but it means that when you lean over, anything in the pocket slides out - if the flap isn't closed. The velcro closures on the pockets are easier to attach one-handed than buttons, but I suspect the velcro will have to be replaced before I wear the shirt out. I wish the collar was a bit larger to protect the back of my neck from the light reflected off the water. It's been through the wash several times and doesn't show any signs of falling apart. Overall, a good shirt and I would buy another.

My father in law swears by these. He's done road construction for quite a long time and wears one every day of the the week. The large size fit him well. The material is perfect for working in the hot sun and is light and breathable. They stay soft and keep him cool and dont look wrinked after a normal wash and dry.

Quality material. No complaints.

I LOVE this shirt to help keep my super fair skin from burning in the South Carolina sun! It is lightweight, well made and durable. The grey color matches all my clothes. I ordered this a size bigger than normal so it was a bit baggy and I love that it helps me stay cool in the sun.
