- Is the Tamiami II good for hot weather?
- Yes. The lightweight polyester, vented back and mesh-lined shoulders are designed to keep air moving in heat. It is one of Columbia's coolest fishing shirts.
- How does it fit compared with a regular shirt?
- It fits roomy and boxy through the body. Many owners size down for a closer fit, especially if they plan to wear it casually.
- Does it protect against the sun?
- Columbia builds UPF sun protection into the fabric, and the long sleeves and collar cover the arms and neck. It is meant for long days outdoors.
- Is it only for fishing?
- No. The rod holder loop and venting suit anglers, but the shirt works for hiking, travel and any hot-weather activity. The fishing details are subtle.
- How should I care for it?
- Machine wash cold and hang or tumble dry low. The polyester dries quickly and does not need ironing.
- Does it have stretch?
- The fabric has little stretch. The loose cut provides room to move, but it is not a stretch shirt.
