“More durable than it looked”

“This is actually an update on the trail wear of the 2nd clutch polo I ordered. The first one I bought (in white) was exchanged, because it stained too easily and did not clean up well. The blue color is much better. Yes, for some reason the synthetic wicking fabric seemed to get smelly very quickly (especially when it was new). But I was really impressed at how easily the smelliness rinsed out with just some lake water, how quickly the shirt dried afterward, and how tough it was against hard trail and pack abrasion. After a weeklong backcountry hike mostly wearing this shirt on the trail, the only thing to show it's not a brand new shirt is one single snag on the back (that I was able to pull through to the backside), probably acquired from an errant thorn while washing in the river on rocks. And it was not from lack of trying to destroy it! Tough, tough shirt. Also wicks sweat well, and gives good sun protection with the collar. The long snap placket also adds a convenient ventilation option. I came here to buy another one now that our trip is over, but they don't have my size right now.”
