Columbia Bahama II PFG Long Sleeve Shirt Black

The Columbia Bahama II Shirt in Black provides a perfect balance of utility and comfort for those spending long hours outdoors or near the water. Built with professional anglers in mind, this performance shirt features a hidden mesh-lined back vent that encourages constant airflow to prevent overheating in humid conditions. The use of lightweight Tactel nylon ensures the garment remains durable while offering a soft, cotton like feel against the skin, making it a reliable choice for any warm weather expedition.

At Urban Industry we recommend

• Saltwater and freshwater fishing where sun exposure is a constant factor
• Tropical travel and humid climates that require high ventilation
• Casual summer wear for those who prefer a loose and airy fit
• Professional outdoor work environments that demand durable and quick drying kit
• Everyday use for a classic utility aesthetic that performs in the heat

Our Style, Fit & Sizing Recommendations

• This shirt is designed with a very generous relaxed fit to maximise airflow around the body.
• The cut is intentionally oversized to allow for a full range of motion while casting or trekking.
• Here at the store we recommend sizing down if you prefer a more traditional or closer to body fit.
• The long line hem ensures the shirt stays tucked in or provides full coverage when worn loose.

Washing & Care Instructions

• Machine wash on a cold, gentle cycle to preserve the technical fibres.
• Use a mild detergent and avoid fabric softeners which can clog the breathable pores.
• Tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang dry to maintain the integrity of the sun protection.
• Do not iron any decals or logo patches and use a low iron setting if necessary.
• Ensure the garment is fully dry before folding to prevent any mildew in the mesh lining.

Our Columbia Bahama II Shirt FAQs

1. Does this shirt actually block the sun? Yes, the fabric is engineered with Omni-Shade technology that provides UPF 50 protection, blocking harmful UVA and UVB rays.

2. Can I wear this as a short sleeve shirt? The sleeves are designed to be rolled up and secured with a built in button tab, giving you the flexibility of two styles in one.

3. Is the fabric heavy or stiff? No, the Tactel nylon is incredibly lightweight and has a soft texture that feels more like natural fibre than typical synthetic materials.

4. Do the vents really work? The back cape vent is lined with mesh and specifically positioned to catch the breeze, making it one of the most breathable shirts in our collection.
