My first impression is that it is huge. Weighing 200 pounds, having a 42" chest, and generally wearing an L-size shirt in the US, I usually wear shirts that are large in size.

This shirt has very long sleeves, so you wouldn't have to worry about your sleeves getting caught in your pants.
The sizes listed here are for men. Size Large fits me because I am 5'9", 220 pounds, and a Large should fit most people. It wasn't too big, so I got an XL instead.
Selected User Reviews For Columbia Men's Bahama II Long Sleeve Shirt
I'm happy with how well it's held up Despite the lightweight nature of the fabric, I really like it. I wear this shirt in both hot and cold weather. It keeps me cool in the hot weather and serves as an adequate base layer in the There is a little discoloration from sweat, but nothing too severe. The sleeves roll up and down beautifully, and I really like how they look. I like how secure it feels and how it looks. While I'm asking it to do things it's not going to be able to do, the shirt seems to have the capacity for an eternity. Though I've worn the shirt more than once in the forest and scrambled up and down rocks, the fabric shows no signs of wear or tear. Shoulders are spacious and allow for plenty of It is a pleasure to meet you all. I am a 5'8" girl who weighs 180 pounds. Because I wanted the jacket to be big, I ordered a medium men's size. In the past, I owned a small and I still found it too big on me, but I like them this way since they are light. Here is a picture I have attached.
I am 6' 175 lbs and I am 6' 1". To make sure you have the right size clothes, wear a large, 34-inch, This is one of the 35 sleeves. large long-sleeve shirt, and the sleeves fit perfectly. I'm interested in how it fits the rest of my body, but the shoulders and body are quite broad. After ordering the short sleeve, I opted for a medium. When compared side by side with all of my large shirts, this shirt has a more typical large fit. The pictures and measurements of the product are true to the product, and I hope other reviewers do the same. For larger people who usually wear a large, the medium fits best if sleeve length is not an issue, unless you like an extra bit of space. I find that the medium is still roomier than my other large shirts, despite being slim and trim. It takes 24 minutes to exercise a medium body. Medium is 5" wide, and large is 26" wide. From armpit to tail, medium measures 30". A small Item is 5", a large Item is 16" The shoulders from seam to seam are medium in size. A small size is 5", and a large size is Long sleeves have a length of 33". They are 5" long. On a large scale. It would be useful if someone else posted a review of the length of the sleeves on a medium, measured from the collar to the end of the sleeves.
I read some reviews about sizing and decided to buy a smaller size than I would normally purchase. A medium of this size would have been better. Then I returned it for a large, and it's perfect for me. In the future, I buy this shirt in a large as I would any other shirt I would purchase. As soon as the shirt arrives, it is wrinkled. It removed the wrinkles quickly and easily with a steamer. A steamer must be used with care. Due to it being nylon and polyester, I just hit it quickly and do not leave it on one spot for too long. Whenever it touches the fabric, the steamer moves over it. This is a good shirt. I like it, and may eventually go on to collect them all It is a good summer shirt, and will be cooler than a t-shirt It is my opinion that the shirt is good. The idea of wearing a fishing shirt is new to me. I'm happy to find out about this, but I will still buy my fish from Costco and wear this shirt while I do so.
The shirt is the second one of this type that I have purchased. My favorite place to use it is Baja during summer fishing on the Sea of Cortez, where it often exceeds 95 degrees with high humidity and no shade. It was about 8 hours in the sun for me and the shirt. The material is very lightweight, but blocks the sun at SPF 50+ level, as far as I can tell. It is possible to roll up the sleeves and put on short sleeves, or to leave on the long sleeves. Because the forearms stay very comfortable, I leave them down. The material is very breathable. In addition to turning up the collar, I also protect my neck with it. By the end of the day, I've washed it out and it's ready to use for the next day in a few hours. It is nice to wash your hands to get the sweat out, but you don't need soap. After I rinse it well with water and let it air dry, I just let it dry. It is only because the fabric is beginning to feel a little thin that I have gone to get a new shirt after my previous one lasted 10 years (maybe 200 days of use). The jacket has been used continuously, but it has not been ripped, its sewing has not unraveled, its buttons have not come In other words, the construction looks good.
A friend of mine told me to get these shirts, so I ordered four. The first two seemed perfect for what I had in mind. My order of two more is on its way. Thus, four shirts have been made. As well as the four Columbia shirts I bought, I bought four other shirt styles made from different fabrics, giving me eight fishing shirts to rotate through Even though it has only been one season, a few months, I have washed these shirts 6 times with Tide in cold water and medium heat to dry them, and they appear as if they have been around for a very long time. on the neck is faded, and there are ugly stains on it (only cheap fabrics stain like that). In the photo, you can clearly see how old, tired, faded, and worn out the fabric and the color already seem. Newer models used to be able to stand out because of their color. It takes only the first 6 washes to look faded and the "puckers" which are all over all shirts have that worn-out look, like the ones on my other shirts after washing them again and again on dozens of hot summer days. Surely this had to be a manufacturing error of the material or dye batch? I hope Columbia will be able to rectify the issue? It's hard to tell, but the shirts shouldn't have worn that well despite being a heavy-duty cotton option. It now has the quality of a donation shirt. Moreover, it is too late for them to be returned.
This person does not breathe well. The shirt is fine. It is a nice shirt, but it has an extremely thick As with my nylon sun pants, I expected something that would be lighter duty and more breathable. A bit rough fabric and no brushing on it is also a problem. The shirt seemed to be of a good size, but the neck was too tight when fully buttoned, which was bad for a sweater in hot weather. Going up a size would help, but then the sleeves might As it is I will have to return this shirt. It doesn't meet the needs I have. It is made of polyester and is much lighter and better suited for hot weather than a shirt from the same brand that is made from cotton.
My only problem is its fit. The image on the website led me to order this based on my usual clothing preferences. I received the shirt and liked the sleeve length and the chest size, but the cut around the stomach was a bit baggy. According to the photo, this shirt does not fit me as I am 6'2" and 190 pounds. Whatever the case, I'm keeping it because I find most of these shirts to be "big in the belly" in contrast to.
