ExOfficio Men's Air Strip Long Sleeve

This is the fifth Exofficio Air Strip shirt I have bought, but I am thinking it will be the last... For years, this model was the perfect travel shirt for me, as a photographer.. Loose fitting for comfort and LARGE pockets to carry all my stuff in, mainly the zippered security pocket, which would hold my wallet and my passport.. The pockets on the original shirt measured 6 inches wide and 7 inches tall.. Really nice size for people like me.. For me, it was a sturdy work and travel shirt, not a fashion statement.. My old ones were getting a lot of miles on them.. Three of them did five international trips last year.. Life was good.. But, now, sadly Exofficio has KILLED the shirt.. Well, it is not really dead, but it is severely messed up.. Now the shirt is smaller, and the pockets measure 5 inches wide and 6 inches tall.. This is not big enough to put my stuff in anymore.. This new shirt that I have will stay here with me, can wear it around town to go grocery shopping and the like, but it is no good for travel anymore.. If they were going to do anything to the shirt to improve it, they would have put TWO security pocket on it instead of the one... Sometimes the crazy design people screw things up.. Too bad they do not actually have to use the stuff they design. And, if you think a little change does not affect things, think about this.. I was raised on a ranch, of sorts. We raised cattle. My dad bought a huge new bull for our herd of cows.. Things were going really good until one time the bull apparently tried to get into another pasture by going through a pasture fence.. The result was that he messed up his reproductive organ in the process.. He still looked like a bull, from a distance. And, if you did not know anything about ranching you would still think he had future as a good looking animal, but, that was not to be.. Even though he looked the same, or almost the same, the real working part of the bull was no longer useful.. So, what happened to him??? He ended up as hamburger meat... And, I think that the Exofficio Air Strip Shirt has the same future ahead of it.. Buying the new design is like buying that bull that lost his ability to do his job....

I generally sweat a ton once I go to a hot and/or humid location overseas. So when I took this to Southeast Asia in the middle of the hot season, I expected it wouldn't fair quite well.To my surprise, this was the best shirt for lightweight hot weather wear that I've ever traveled with. I took this all over Laos, Vietnam, Cambodia, and Indonesia at temperatures well above comfort, and never felt terrible. Much like the Give-N-Go Boxers, the shirt holds up well with sustained travel and minimal washing without giving off much odor. Highly recommend for a light but professional looking travel shirt in hot weather locations where sun protection is needed.

This is my favorite shirt. I'm 6'3", 250lbs and very slightly pear shaped; "thanks for the great genetics Mom". Because of that I wear XL in a regular fit and XXL in a slim fit. I thought I read where this was a slim fit so I ordered a 2X, but based on other reviews I must have gotten the old version, because it fit huge on me and the pockets seem ginormous. I ended up shrinking this by washing it washing it in hot water, and drying with a very hot iron. It shrank enough to were I don't look like I'm in a Moo Moo, but it's still kind of big on me.Other than that, this is absolutely my favorite shirt. It feels like wearing air. It has hardly any weight to it, and breathes like a fat kid in gym class (I would know). I also love being able to button up my sleeve rolls, and having the extra hidden color to pop up when I'm in the sun.I'll be ordering another one soon, but will give the 1X a shot.

I really like this shirt. The fit is as expected - I'm a 15 1/2-34/35 slim fit and I ordered a medium. It is roomy enough to move freely but not boxy or baggy. It looks good and is functional. Unlike a cotton shirt, it has some give, and it wicks away moisture rather than getting soggy.It's also very versatile. In cooler weather, you can wear an undershirt; in hot weather not, and it performs perfectly either way. The side and back vents are a big plus in hot weather. On a recent safari tip I wore it all the time, and each night I was able to wash the dust out in the sink and it was dry by morning.I looked at a bunch of shirts like this before buying this one, and I'm very pleased with my choice.

I haven't actually worn this on a trip yet, so this review is based on first impressions. I've owned ExOfficio Give-N-Go t-shirts and briefs for a long time, and love 'em a lot. This is the first ExOfficio that's not their "Give-N-Go" fabric so I was a little apprehensive. Turns out to be an awesome fabric that I can see would be great in humid climes. The vents under the arms and across the back are well-done and look very functional. I like the ability to roll up the long sleeves (as pictured). I'm a slender 5' 9" with slightly broad shoulders, and I found the fit a teeny bit small. I think the next size would be too big, though.If my opinion changes after actually using them on my next trip, I'll update this review.

My only issue with these shirts are they are a bit long, I wish they were a bit shorter (I'm 5'8") .Lg. fits me best around the shoulders/arms but is too long for "attractive dress" look around town untucked, med. is a bit tight up top, but better untucked look wise. If you tuck shirts in no issues.

Fits a little tight in the arms (bicep and forearm area). I'm not some meathead with 30" biceps and 20" forearms, but think they could put in some room into those areas. I ordered a large but now after a couple washes, those arms seemed to have gotten tighter and I never use the dryer and always hang dry. I also don't think that my arms got fatter, while my shoulders and belly feel the same size as when I bought the shirt.

Bueno

Parfaite j’ai dit.

I love these shirts, perfect for travel and everyday use. I already owned a half dozen in various colours, that are at least 10 years old and still going strong. They made an improvement since I last bought them: the pockets now have two velcro closures, one at each side, instead of the single in the middle. This eliminates the pocket corner "curl". Well done!

Great quality

The shirt works really well on a 8 km hike up to the base of a glacier, keeping the sun off of me and keeping my body temperature just right. The delivery and packaging were done well also.
