Has It's Ups and Downs

By Backcountry.com Employee June 3, 2011

I recently took this shirt on a week-long sailing excursion in the French Caribbean and I found it performed well with a few foreseeable issues. While the fit of the shirt is very good (middle of the road to slightly athletic, L size with a 5'11" and 183lbs build) and the pockets were very functional, the full polyester material had a double edge sword effect. It kept me cool in the most humid of conditions, but it definitely didn't last too long in terms of going between washes which is normal for polyester. That being said, it does do great on day trips or multi-day if you are carrying a few.
