Amazon.com

Engineered for durability and a long life, the long-sleeve, relaxed-fit Air Strip is ExOfficio's top-selling shirt. It's made with the company's signature, ultra-lightweight Dryflylite material (80 percent nylon, 20 percent polyester), and it features a soft, moisture-wicking finish that's designed to dry quickly. Climate-control ventilation and an Airomesh Plus lined cape vent help keep you cool. Built-in UVA and UVB protection blocks the sun's ultraviolet rays, as does the adjustable, three-position sun collar. Wrinkle resistance adds convenience as well as comfort. Pleated bellows pockets and a hidden, zippered security pocket offer ample storage.

Other highlights include roll-up sleeve tabs and a utility tab. The shirt is imported and weighs 6 ounces, or 2.5 ounces per square yard.

This is easily the best travel shirt money can buy. It dries quickly, is wrinkle-free, lends itself to being worn over a couple of days without looking any the worse for the wear, and has a nice stylish feel to it.

Excellent for hiking during the heat of the day. A must to help keep you cool AND comfortable. I've bought several more for hikes that last more than a day. Highly recommended.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Shirt, but expensive., July 26, 2011

This review is from: ExOfficio Air Strip Lite Long-Sleeve Shirt (Apparel)

This is a really great shirt. If money is not an option...get it, you won't be disappointed. The side vents really make the shirt.

However, if money is something to consider, take a look at the WorldWide Sportsman Grande Banks shirt, it is available at Bass Pro Shops.

I own 1 AirStrip Lite and 2 Grande Banks shirts. They have almost identical characteristics: both have three position sun collar, fabrics on both feel the same, both have roll up sleeves with tabs, both have billows pockets with security zipper, both have the utility tab, both have vented backs, and both are button down collars. Both shirts are VERY durable, I have been on multiple climbs/hikes with the Ex Officio and it took it like a champ. I have gotten in a motorcycle wreck (I was riding the bike) with the Grande Banks on: it didn't tear, was dirty...but washed out and looks just fine now. Both shirt are easily hand washable.

The differences are that the Grande Banks shirt is made with Nanotex and will repel water and stains. This shirt also has TWO side vents where the AirStrip Lite has only one.

The AirStrip Lite however has a cool little function where the back vent can be looped around a small tab in the back and basically expose the back. The Grande Banks does not have this; it only lacks the little tab on the back to loop around. If someone added this on their own, it would be the exact same as the AirStrip Lite.

The best part is that the Grand Banks at full price costs USD 29.99. I have never seen a new AirStrip Lite at that price.
