Customer Reviews Columbia Tamiami™ II Short Sleeve Shirt

Needed to remove side zippers and pockets, as I did with my 4 long sleeved Tamiami. I tuck in shirts, and the bulk is unwanted. Love the fabric feel, look, and quick-dry features.

Runs small. I started with a size medium then reordered a large and probably would be happier with an extra large. Like the colors and the flap for sunglasses.

I love the lightweight feel of this shirt, and have several in different colors. I travel a lot, and shirts that are lightweight and that dry quickly are a real bonus. My only complaint is the sizing. I have worn a size medium for many years, but I require a large in this shirt. I have not gained weight, so there is an issue with the sizing. Columbia needs to be consistent in sizing regardless of shirt type or model. Similar Columbia shirts in medium fit just fine. I also wish more colors were available. It seems that many are available only in extra-small or small.

Color ocean blue is very nice.

In white this blouse is very sheer. You would have to wear a beige undergarment. Also, the wrinkles from packaging still have not come out, after 2 washings. Technically, it is just like the other ones I have of this style in long sleeve.

Bought this for my wife based upon the size chart on the web site. We have to return it and get the next size up. She is pleased with the shirt, color, etc. except for the fit. We have already ordered the larger size (in multiple colors) and received them. Ready for cruising!!!

Most shirts are a lighter color, almost a pastel, but the shirts are great.

Loved the shirt, had to return it. Just a little to fitted for my full figure. Buy Bahama shirt. They are cut fuller

This shirt has a nice fit and feel. It is nice to wear when a tee shirt is a little TOO casual. I bought 3 other colors because that's what I do when I like something. :) I wish the "Columbia " label was a little more subtle on the pocket.

I'm a well-endowed, 5'10" size 12, and I have trouble getting shirts long enough and with enough room across the chest. This shirt fits just right in both areas. I ordered an XL and it's perfect for me. I love the quality construction and the light weight material. I plan on buying a few more of these, and wearing them on an upcoming medical mission trip in the Dominican Republic, where the heat and humidity are oppressive. I will say that I should not have ordered the white. It's way too see-through, so I plan on returning it and getting another color instead.

Excited to get this shirt BUT it was way too small. Frustrated with Columbia's inconsistent sizing. It makes it difficult to know what size to order. Not pleased that I have to pay to return 3 out of 4 products that don't fit. A hassle to send back. Customer service rep was polite. Bottom line: delay in getting to wear item and had to pay to for shipping back.

I am taking this beautiful deep purple shirt to India and expect to enjoy it in the very hot weather there. My only complaint is that the little velcro tabs on the collar don't always stay secure. I keep having to reposition them.

Only reason 4 stars is because it is a little smaller in size, I believe it is how it is tapered in. I usually wear a Medium but my experience with Columbia is they usually run small so I ordered in L and the fit is comfortable not too big. Great light weight I know I will be wearing this fly fishing.

I tried on a Medium and it gaps to much in between the snaps (no buttons - they use snaps) The large feels a bit big but still gaps a bit in the middle. Not a shirt you tuck in as there are pockets low on the front of the shirt.

This is a great product but run too small

Very comfortable and nice enough to look professional when I am working outside. Easy care and true/relaxed fit. Wish the sleeves were an inch or two shorter for style but that's easy enough to change. I bought the Heliotrope (purple) which seems to be a lighter color than represented on my screen. Also, the shirt has a subtle checked pattern that you won't see unless you zoom in several times but is quite apparent in reality. I don't love that but otherwise, it is a really great shirt. I live and work outdoors in the Caribbean and this shirt definitely works well here. No more smelly cotton!

Love this shirt. Wish I would have ordered my regular size medium but I ordered a size up because I read a couple of review that said it ran small. While it wasn't hanging on me, my regular size would have been a better fit. Bought this shirt for a west coast vacation in the middle of July (soaring temperatures on the desert) and it was comfortable, cool and dried quickly after hiking and also a hotel room washing. Been wearing it around town now that I'm home. Would definately buy more like this, only in my regular size and not a size larger. Good purchase.

Bright and Functional- To use on hikes and casual wear

It requires me buying one to two sizes up to wear ANY Columbia shirts. They are just not cut to accommodate breasts, and the button/snap placement needs to move to the MIDDLE of the breasts and not above and below so it doesn't gap. I'd buy multiples of colors, but the cut and button placement force me into jumbo sizes. And the Velcro collar tips. What's the point? I kept it because it was on sale and I had bonus money, but not thrilled. I'd like to be thrilled. I won't buy again til design changes.

Pros: this is one of the few shirts that does fit alright across chest (larger chest/bust) but button gap is an issue. Would love to see some velcro between buttons to help with gaping and better darting. Cons: Side zipper pockets are pointless and i have cut them out of my other shirts. If the pocket wrapped to the back instead of under chest I would prefer. I personally hate any kind of pocket on shirts as they arent functional or arent flattering for my body type.

I loved this beautiful shirt. It fit everywhere except the waist which was cut way too narrow for a size X-LARGE. I am 5'2", 165.

This shirt runs a little small. I always wear a medium but not with this shirt. The color didn't look like the picture. I really wouldn't say that it is pink. However, it is a Columbia product which means it is a high quality shirt.

This shirt is much tighter around the middle than the sleeveless Tamiami shirts.

I"m 5'4" and 128 pounds. The medium fit but was snug in shoulders. My gripe is that it was too long. I wish Columbia made this shirt in petites, so it wouldn't hang half way down my thighs. A large was way too big all over. So no shirt for me. Disappointing to say the least, for it is nice fabric and pretty color.
