Review on 🎣 Columbia Women's PFG Bahama II UPF 30 Long Sleeve Fishing Shirt: A Must-Have for Stylish Protection in the Outdoors by Shane Jenkins

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Now I feel like I'm out in the fresh air!

I ordered this shirt after a trip to the state park convinced me I was going out completely. I like being outdoors more in the sense that I like getting drunk on patios, but I'm more outdoorsy. I didn't wear it for about 3 months, but then I wore it kayaking and working on my aunt's farm and then hiking in the Olympic mountains. a fitted shirt for hiking or kayaking. I'm really impressed with the build quality, the rubber buttons feel indestructible. As I swam in it, I was pleased that the little spray dried up or ran off so quickly that I didn't feel wet. The rear venting is amazing and really helps keep you cool, especially in white. After kayaking, I put it on to pick and wash vegetables. i was dirty To the point where my aunt was upset that I was wearing my new shirt and offered to replace it because she was sure I had ruined it. I said no, it's for streetwear anyway, who cares if it's a bit dirty, I'll look more real like I've worn it more than once. I washed it and it was 100% clean, no trace of the huge amount of dirt and beetroot and chard juices I got on it. After a few weeks I put it on to go camping. It was the perfect choice. This kept me cool and dry on the hot bottom of the climb, and my phone (GS 7, regular, non-explosive), some cash, ID, and keys all fit in my pockets, so I didn't have to pack anything in my backpack. I like that the pockets close so securely. It has a small loop to attach a carabiner to under one of the pockets, but I didn't need anything to hang it around my chest. I rolled up my sleeves, buttoned them and tucked them under my windbreaker for a cold, windy top – glad I sweated in it on the climb and let it evaporate so I wasn't wet and cold. It's super versatile and practical. Now I understand why guys sometimes wear fisherman shirts to work, it's so comfortable.

Pros
  • Pretty impressive
Cons
  • boring packaging
