Columbia Women’s PFG Tamiami II Long Sleeve Shirt

Comment

I needed a shirt exactly like this. I thought about what would be the perfect shirt to protect me from the sun and mosquitoes. It would have to be super light weight because I get hot easily. It would have to be super comfortable because I get uncomfortable easily. I searched Amazon and found this shirt, ordered it and am now absolutely loving it. Because of other review recommendations and because this shirt is fitted, and because I have long arms and large hips, and because my intention is to wear this shirt over tank tops and such, I sized up to Large although Medium would be my normal size in tops. The Large is perfect (I am about a size 10 on top and a size 14-16 on bottom.) This Columbia Tamiami II shirt is even better than what I thought up in my head as the perfect shirt. It is vented in the upper back. The snaps down the front and on the sleeve cuffs are so much better than buttons because it is so easy and quick to open and close. There are 2 zippered pockets on the left and right bottom - Wow! It is fitted so gives a woman a fashionable look. It even has a bit of a stretch to it. It is so light and comfortable, you barely even feel it against your skin. The shirt is a bit see-through (at least, the white one is) so I dont think it is best for wearing without anything underneath. You might even get away with wearing this to the office with a camisole or tank top underneath, either buttoned up, or with some buttons (actually, snaps) on top unbuttoned for a layered look. I would say, because of the pockets, this shirt is better suited for not being tucked in. If you like this shirt but are looking for something that has a relaxed fit instead, or if you are on the XL size, consider the Columbia Sportswear Womens Bahama Long Sleeve Top instead. I love the Bahama top as well and wear that one in my normal size of Medium.

I love this turquoise color for summer. I was worried about the fit after reading some of the reviews, but I ordered it in my usual size large and it fits me fine. I have a bit of a belly and it skims over my belly without drawing attention to that area. I was also worried that the snaps might gap across the chest, but it fits me there too. Im going to order in some other colors.

Got this shirt for gardening and yard work. I bought this same brand & style shirt in Maine while on vacation almost 10 years ago. Ive used it not only for hiking, but also gardening, yard work, and fishing. The 10 year old shirt is still in fantastic condition, even after extreme abuse in the garden, so I decided to finally get a 2nd one, so I always have one on hand. It protects against sun, black flies, mosquitoes & so far, ticks. It is light enough to wear in the summer & it dries quickly so you never feel uncomfortable. Its even fashionable to wear while camping. It washes & dries well. Dirt & grime come out out very easily. Seeing that Ive already gotten 10 years out of the 1st one, with NO signs of wear & tear, I think its a fantastic value!

This is my favorite style of Columbia shirt! I have it in white and clear blue, and cant wait to buy more. The colors are fantastic, and the fit is tailored nicely for females. The snap buttons make it a quick shirt to throw on, and super simple to roll or unroll the sleeves. The shirt itself is super thin and keeps you cool, while also providing excellent sun protection. I always wear one when kayaking, fishing, crabbing, etc. and never get sun burned. For size reference, I bought an XS and am 55" and 120 lbs. The XS isnt too snug, and allows me extra room to move my arms around comfortably. In the picture, Im wearing the XS white shirt. My friend is a couple inches taller and is wearing a S in cool blue. If you want a good looking, cool, sun protectant shirt, this is definitely worth a purchase.

True to size, very thin, not too hot (I live in nm and it was 98 with no wind yesterday). Great shirt will be buying more. I have a Large chest 38DD, and the XL does not have the dreaded button Gap
