Columbia Tamiami II Long-Sleeve Shirt - Men's Carbon, XL

"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:""I have been wearing the Tamiami II Long-Sleeve Shirt on fishing trips for years because it just works, staying cool and dry even when the sun is relentless, and the action keeps you moving all day. The rod-holder loop on the chest is one of those small details that sounds minor until you are trying to land a fish with both hands and realize how much you appreciate having a place to stow the rod without setting it down.""Some shirts earn their place in the rotation by being quietly perfect at everything they do. The Columbia Tamiami II Long-Sleeve Shirt is exactly that, a long-running fan favorite that has spent decades on docks, flats boats, and lakeside banks because it delivers the right combination of comfort, protection, and utility without making a fuss about any of it. Omni-Shade UPF 40 blocks UVA and UVB rays through tight fabric construction and modified fibers, so a full day of direct sun stays manageable. Omni-Wick pulls sweat away from the skin and disperses it across the ripstop polyester surface for fast evaporation, keeping the shirt dry and comfortable even when the air is heavy with humidity, and the fish are refusing to cooperate. Roll-up sleeves with tab holders let you adapt to changing conditions without a wardrobe change, a mesh-lined back vent moves air through when the breeze drops, and a collar that buttons down in the wind keeps everything tidy when the boat is moving. The chest rod-holder loop frees up both hands when you need them most, and two chest pockets keep the small gear you actually reach for within easy reach."
