A great shirt for those who want to stay out of the direct sun and yet be cool. I took one to France last year and loved it. In fact, so much so that I sent 3 to my sister-in-law in California. Because of a skin condition she has to keep her arms and neck covered. She loves the soft cool feel of the fabric and the protection. They are easy to care for and pack.
I bought this for a safari in Tanzania and it was just right. Lightweight and breathable but provided plenty of protection from the sun and bugs. I got the dusty green, which was more like a mint green. I wish it would have come in a khaki or tan for safari, but it was a great purchase.
