Men's PFG Tamiami II Long Sleeve Fishing Shirt

Nicer shirt than I thought it would be ! This fits perfect but I just received another one and its the same size but to big.

Awesome shirt, color lasts very well, many pockets for storing stuff. Sized great, great value for the money

I am 6'1 and 205 lbs. Reading the reviews I was debating whether to buy the medium or the large because so many people were saying it was oversized. It definitely is one of the looser shirts I own but I didn't buy it to be a muscle shirt. I bought it to work outside. While it is looser than most shirts I own I wouldn't say it's oversized. It looks fine on me and is very comfortable and I think it'll keep me cool out in the sun. If you prefer a tighter fit then I would suggest getting a one size down. The material and the style is on point. Very light and breathable and I dig all the pockets.

Silky smooth, true to size, and very breathable! Quality Columbia product that I can't wait to wear out when the weather gets warmer!

It's a nice shirt but they definitely run big. If you typically wear a medium, order the small.

All you expect! Fast delivery, and the shirt is awesome. Bought a M.

This shirt isn’t just another piece of outdoor clothing — it’s one of those rare gear pieces that actually performs as well as the brand says it does. The Columbia Tamiami II delivers exactly what it promises for outdoor use. It’s breathable, quick-drying, and the Omni-Shade UPF 40 sun protection really works — my partner wears these everyday on the sun a dessert areas where he works. The moisture-wicking performance keeps you dry, and the vented mesh back makes a noticeable difference when the temperature rises. When looking for this type of shirts, Columbia never fails.

PFG FIT Columbia makes some fantastic shirts, but make sure to order the appropriate size. I am 5’10”, 195 lbs, and would typically wear a Large in most similar styled (button-up) shirts, but I have to get a Medium in Columbia PFG shirts. (The Medium is still a moderately loose fit, as the Large is like a tent on me). Tip number two is that because these shirts are on different sizing scale, many get returned to the Amazon Warehouse, so keep an eye for Amazon Warehouse deals on these shirts (see tips to finds the easiest way to compare prices across sizes and colors at the conclusion of this review). I have tried the Tamiami II, Bahama II, and Bonehead (AND new Blood & Guts III – see below for updated comparison including the BG3 series) versions of the Columbia PFG shirts, and have been mostly pleased with all of them. The Tamiami II was my favorite due to the cooling effect of the weave, but the similar Blood & Guts III is now right there with it. My reasoning for giving the Bahama II 4 starts instead of 5, is that out of the four series discussed in this review, it is my least favorite. The Bahama II tends to wrinkle, is not as cool feeling in extreme heat as the open weave Tamiami or Blood&Guts, and the nylon tend to feel slimy during periods of heavy perspiration. Below I have noted the differences in four of the PFG styles, for those trying to decide which shirt they may prefer. TAMIAMI II STYLE (POLY) - SUMMERTIME CASUAL FAVORITE The Tamiami II (T2) and the Blood & Guts III (BG3) are my favorite of the aforementioned PFG styles. The main difference between each of these styles is material. The T2 & BG3 are 100% polyester (liner and exterior), the Bahama II (Ba2) is nylon, and the Bonehead (BH) is poplin cotton. The T2 is the thinnest/lightest (most breathable) material of the three styles, also has a slightly shinier appearance, and is probably the most wrinkle resistant of the three (as the fabric is less rigid that the nylon Bahama II or cotton Bonehead). (Update 7/11/16 – The Blood & Guts series is also breathable polyester similar to the Tamiami with a slightly different styling, and stain resistant fabric. See update at end of review for full comparison.) The T2 has a snap button pocket on top with Velcro pockets underneath on both sides, which I also prefer over the pocket style on the other two (Ba2 & BH have identical pocket styles). The synthetic T2 and Ba2 both wick moisture and create a cooling effect better than the cotton BH, but the lightness and weave of the T2 makes it by far the coolest wearing of the three. For outdoor activity in the heat and humidity of summer, it would definitely be my preferred choice. The long-sleeve version is fantastic for offshore fishing when lightweight sun protection is essential. The Ta series also does not wrinkle as badly as the Ba and BH series shirts do. (The PFG apparel which has an SPF rating, such as the Tamiami & Blood/Guts series, has an open fabric weave which is “lose” enough to allow some penetration of UV through the material itself; which means the material is much more breathable ergo cool feeling, although technically you could get some UV exposure through the shirt.) BAHAMA II STYLE (NYLON) - WORK WEAR IN MILD WEATHER The Bahama II is the middle ground between the T2 and the BH. It is synthetic - similar to the T2, but is a nylon exterior shell with a polyester liner (whereas T2 is poly liner and shell). The pockets on the Ba are the same traditional Columbia PFG look as the pockets on the Bonehead. The slightly more rigid feel of the nylon, also gives the Bahama a more traditional (cotton-look) appearance than the T2. In a certain respect, the Ba nylon manages moisture better than the BH cotton version – i.e. it evaporates sweat more quickly. On the other hand, the nylon does not absorb moisture as cotton does, so while it does dry faster, it has a “slimy” feel to when sweaty that simply is not comfortable. The Bahama also wrinkles worse than any of the other PFG series shirts, so it is my least favorite series. That said, it is still a good quality shirt, and makes for a great work shirt during temperate weather (i.e. when it isn’t going to get slimy with sweat). BONEHEAD STYLE (COTTON) - COOL WEATHER FAVORITE Most everything has already been covered. The BH and the aforementioned Ba styles look virtually identical. Essentially, I like the Bonehead over the Bahama because it does not get that slimy feeling when you sweat, and it is slightly better from a wrinkle perspective. The Bonehead is probably my favorite series when moisture management and cooling effect are not important, so I like these in long sleeve for fall and winter wear. I also like the traditional appearance of the Ba and the BH for work wear, but the T2 look I like better for casual. (The newer Blood & Guts series has the comfort of the Tamiami series, but has a look similar to the Bonehead, so it is my new favorite summertime work shirt.) The Bonehead long sleeve also makes a great layering option for hunting season, and Sage is a great natural neutral (earth tone) color for this purpose. UPDATE 7/11/16 – BLOOD & GUTS III (POLY) - HOT WEATHER FISHING FAVORITE When this review was originally posted, I only contrasted the Bahama, Tamiami, and Bonehead series shirts, but recently I have found a new favorite – the Blood & Guts III (BG3). While the name may not be all that appealing, these are really great shirts. They have an SPF rating, therefore breathable/open weave, similar to the Tamiami, with a styling that more closely resembles the Bahama & Bonehead series. The BG3 is also treated for stain resistance, making it a great shirt for fishing, work, and outdoor activities. Finally, the BG3 does not wrinkle nearly as severely as the Bahama nylon or Bonehead cotton shirts do. Out of the four PFG series shirts discussed, the BG3 series probably have the tightest fit. I still wear a medium in the BG3, but the series has a slimmer type cut than the previous versions discussed. All in all, this is my favorite alongside the Tamiami. I slightly prefer the Blood & Guts for fishing due to the stain resistance, whereas, I prefer the Tamiami for casual and boating wear just from an aesthetic standpoint. The Tamiami may have the slightest of edges in the cooling department, but they are very close in that regard. AMAZON PRICE COMPARISON & WAREHOUSE DEALS I found myself getting very aggravated at the way Amazon lists apparel items with multiple colors, as it can take forever to search through multiple color (and size) options to see the cheapest offerings. On my iPad version, the color prices are displayed in a list style automatically, but on my PC desktop I would have to select each color/size to see the price options. I finally found a simpler way. Follow these steps: >Select a color and size option for the shirt. >Look on the right hand side of the screen to see if there are multiple offers for this garment. If so, select the “new and used from” (or “new” if no used offerings available) icon, which will take you to a list view screen. (There must be multiple offerings for the exact size and color selected for this option to appear, so if you do not see the “new and used from” hyper-link, then select another size/color combination till the link appears.) >In the list view screen, select your size and click the “lowest offer for each” icon beside the color selector. This will display the cheapest offering for each color shirt in that size, so you can quickly see which colors are the cheapest. Also, this view will show any Amazon Warehouse Deals available. As mentioned in the first paragraph, these shirts get returned often due to sizing issues, and many times the Warehouse deals are shirts that were tried on, then immediately returned for a smaller size. THANKS Thanks for reading my review.

Great Hubby loves it.

Nice breathable

I bought this shirt for my brother and it really exceeded all my expectations. Love the green key west colour. Easy to wash and dries quickly. Ideal as a weekend shirt or for everyday wear. Can roll up the sleeves and I recommend purchasing these shirts in other colours. I recommend these shirts as an everyday shirt for the men in the house. Can be worn open or closed with buttons.

Todo muy bien, lo único es que las mangas están demasiado largas, parece extra larga

Llego súper bien, solo no me gustó que era muy fosforescente
