Columbia Men's Silver Ridge Short Sleeve Shirt

UPF 30 protection at an affordable price. The same features as my Silver Ridge Pants, but with UPF 30 protection due to the short sleeve factor. Same true to size, same quality but also featuring two vents in the back for direct ventilation and enchanced breathability. The fabric is a little more "3D", so to speak, mesh weave in comparison to the SR pants that aids in not stick-to-your-skin feeling when sweaty.If you want the UPF 50 protection you should stick to the long-sleeve version.

Toad&Co Ventilair Short Sleeve Shirt

Bluesign fabric keeps you cool and moisture free. UV protection makes this a dual function shirt. As an outdoor enthusiast who likes to combine travel and hiking or backpacking, I am always on the lookout for dual function clothing. The Toad&Co Ventilair Short Sleeve Shirt is perfect for this purpose. The shirt is manufactured from "Bluesign" approved fabric that Toad&Co call Suncool. Combining organic cotton to pull the moisture from the body with heat reflecting hydrophobic polyester… Full review

Craghoppers NosiLife Prospect Long-Sleeved Shirt

Permanent Insect Shield sets this shirt apart from the crowd. Anti-bacterial, moisture control, and solar shield make for a very versatile shirt. This Craghoppers Prospect long sleeve shirt with NosiLife insect control has provided me with a lot insect-free days on the trail and during travels. It's made from 100% Polyamide (nylon) with the synthetic pyrethroid treated yarn. For those that like a scientific explanation "Synthetic pyrethroids are synthesized derivatives of naturally occurring pyrethrins,… Full review

Sierra Designs Long Sleeve Pack Polo

This is a really well-designed shirt that could be great with tweaks to the fabric and sizing. I bought this shirt hoping that it would be my go-to shirt for backpacking. Unfortunately, the sizing is simply too small, and the fabric is not all that comfortable. Fit & Comfort:  Sierra Designs products run really small, I guess. The size chart says 34-37" in the chest for a small, and they really mean it. I normally wear a 37" or 38", and this shirt fits snugly around my chest. The really constricting… Full review

Icebreaker Oreti Short Sleeve Shirt

Easily the most practical summer shirt for outdoor or casual wear. As you're heading outdoors and wondering what to pack to be as light as possible, look no further than this shirt. It breathes, it's light and comfortable, it will never smell bad (almost), and it's made pretty tough. You can also fit a map in the two big front pocket that are easily accessible. Same quality build we'd expect from Icebreaker. Buttons snap super tight and zippers feel like quality. Take this shirt and head out without… Full review

Peter Storm Long Sleeve Travel Shirt

Tough shirt made of heavy gauge nylon. The main point of interest in this shirt, and the reason I am reviewing it, is the heavy gauge material from which it is made. Most nylon (polyamide) shirts are flimsy things designed for comfort in hot weather rather than toughness. This shirt is the precise opposite. To give you an idea, my size medium weighs 309g (10.9z) when the average shirt weighs less than 250g (8.8oz). If you need a heavy duty nylon shirt for whatever reason—for instance, a shirt… Full review

Mountain Hardwear Men's Canyon Shirt Long Sleeve

Tough, durable, cool shade. The best summer hiking and work wear I have found. I'm a landscaper in hot Tucson where 1/4 second of shade from a flying by airplane is helpful. Dealing with desert heat and plants takes toughness as so many plants have thorns and needles. Yet this is the coolest wearing shady shirt I've ever found. Had these over 10 years, yet they do not show any wear and I wear them often. Still don't have a tear in either, an amazing feat in the desert. Full review

Craghoppers NosiLife Adventure Shirt

Practical and comfortable nylon shirt. Is insect-repellent and has various other features including five pockets. The Craghoppers NosiLife Adventure shirt is a practical nylon shirt. It comes with Craghoppers’ NosiLife insect-repellent treatment which, the company claims, is permanently woven into the fabric and remains effective throughout the useful life of the garment. Make of this what you will: I’m sceptical, to be honest. But the shirt does have plenty of other useful features. It has… Full review

Patagonia Long-Sleeved Fezzman Shirt

The best work/hike button-down shirt that I've owned, hands down. Out of the countless button-down shirts I've owned, I've never been more happy than with the Patagonia Fezzman. I'm actually wearing the first one I bought as I type this review, and although a nice button-down shirt might not be the most "outdoorsy" of pieces of gear, I think this versatile shirt deserves a review. What amazes me the most is that I bought my first Fezzman probably in 2009, and after seven years of wearing for work,… Full review
