I was looking for an all around shirt for travel, hiking/outdoor wear, yet something that could be worn to casual bars, restaurants, etc. This shirt fits the bill perfectly. It's stylish and very comfortable and can be worn virtually everywhere. It travels very well, meaning it does not wrinkle at all even after multiple packing and unpacking from the suitcase, and after machine washing/drying. It feel lightweight, yet it is warm enough to wear on cool mornings (40's) with only a light weight jacket and as the day warms, off with the jacket and the shirt is perfect protection from mosquitos, sun, etc. And the sleeves roll up as the picture indicates so you also have a short sleeve shirt, although would not replace a real short sleeve shirt when really warm. I'm 6'1" with a 42" chest and the large size fits perfectly - not snug, yet not sloppy and loose either. Nice length also.
I got the gravel color, which I had reservations about when ordering, but was the only color other than white that Amazon had for this price in a size large. However, the color is great. It is kinda medium grey with dark green undertones and is pretty true to the color pictured. Will go very well with about anything - a pretty neutral color.
I'm going to buy another one in a different color before this style is discontinued. I'll have to pay a slightly higher price though in another neutral color such as tan. That's the only issue with Columbia. They keep changing styles so if you find something you like, better jump on it. BTW, the feel and fit of this shirt is very similar to the "Platinum" style Columbia had a year or so back, minus the back venting the Platinum had. I like both, but this shirt is more practical since it will also serve as a casual dress shirt.
