Review on Columbia Men's PFG Tamiami II UPF 40 Long Sleeve Fishing Shirt - High-performance for fishing enthusiasts by Awiwi Swift

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The size is too big and the material attracts dirt

I bought a medium sized men's shirt and either I got too small or the shirt is too big. Big in shoulders, arm length and torso - basically like a big shirt. What surprised me the most was the length of the sleeves as I don't have short arms. Colombian clothing seems to be getting bigger overall - maybe as big as a vanity for the ever-expanding American population? Whatever it is, it's annoying because Columbia clothing has always worked well for me in the past. This material also likes dirt, which isn't a problem if you're buying it for fishing, but if you're buying it for gardening, expect the edges of the cuffs to get dirty quickly and not easy to clean. I suspect part of the problem is that the pollen sticks to the material (like picking tomatoes and beans) and then the dirt sticks to the pollen. However, the dirt shows quickly and I have to use a stain stick/spray on the cuffs to remove them. Otherwise the shirt does exactly what it promises. Provides sun protection in a lightweight fabric. It's relatively cool, although the material could breathe a little better.

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • Does not fit all
