Ohhh....

Well, to start off, I am a dirt poor college student. I ordered this shirt a little while ago, and almost immediately regretted it because of the fairly high price tag. That is until I received it...Shirt fits amazing!!! I am around 5'11" 1/2 and about 162 pounds, bought the medium(170+ pounders definitely go for the large). Pretty tight fitting, especially around my chest. I have medium to big sized arms for my body size and the sleeves fit tight, but not uncomfortable. The thing I like most about the sleeves is they are longer than your average medium, I am extremely happy to avoid the short, uncomfortable sleeves that usually come with tight fitting shirts like this one. Fabric is amazing, breathes well, drys what seems like immediately and is the most comfortable article of clothing I own. I really cannot begin to express how glad I am I bought this shirt. In fact, if they had more colors in stock I would order a couple more! Definitely worth the $50 I spent.Oh and the blue color looks sick! Not nearly as vibrant as shown here on backcountry. Much more attractive in person.

Update - Just wore this on a 16 mile day hike in the zion narrows. Worked flawlessly, dried fast when needed. Complaint; I dislocated my shoulder on the last couple of miles, 6 1/2 hours later I am at the hospital and they have to cut the shirt off to get the shoulder back in. =(.....buying another when I get money.
