Customer Reviews Columbia Tidal Tee™ II L/S

I liked everything about this shirt - except for the color. It's not pink, nor peacch. Other than the color - I love this shirt

I was a little skeptical to wear a long sleeve at the beach on a 80 degree day but I was so glad I did! This shirt kept me nice and cool without making me sweat! The long sleeves protected me from the sun while keeping me nice and cool. Only con would have to be the big "Columbia " written down the arm but that isn't enough to make me stop wearing it.

Wore this top while mountain biking on a 62 degree day. I was protected from the sun, and the fabric breathed enough to keep me comfortable - not too cool, not too hot. The Lollipop color is very pretty, and I have no issues with the writing on the sleeve.

Purchased to wear kayaking. Exactly what I needed. The main reason I bought this one was the sleeves are white but the body is not. I have an older rash guard (not Columbia) that has black sleeves and it is just too hot to wear. This one keeps my arms protected AND reasonably cool. I like that my printed bathing suit does not show through the body obnoxiously (you can see it but it is not super obvious). Have already worn this once on a very sunny 5hr paddle... love it! Would consider buying a second one in another color. Took one star off for the ginormous logo down the sleeve. Would prefer a more subtle logo if I must have one.

Loved the shirt, however the logo down the arm was to big and to much for me.

Sizing was off. I bought a large and it was too small. I bought another shirt in size large from Columbia and it fit well.

the picture shows a beautiful coral, but the actual product is very orange and not as pictured. I was disappointed with the color.

I purchased a couple. Good quality. However, the sleeves don't fall properly. They wrinkle in a weird way from top down. I overlooked it in the photo. I prefer a smoother (but not tight) fit. Returning.

It's a nice chief but has bright white lettering down the sleeve that I didn't expect or want

I haven't actually gone outside and put this product to test yet! I am 5'3", 140 lbs, average build and normally like my clothes somewhat on the loose side and not too form fitting. This shirt is a lot longer and looser than I would have hoped for. The sleeves cover my hands a bit. I would probably fit in a small and still have a bit of room.

This shirt is a little bit boxy and short. I do like the material for sun blocking. Will keep to wear kayaking.

I bought this to wear on the golf course to protect from the sun. I do wear it but on blistering hot and humid days, it is just too darn hot. But if the humidity is lower and a slight breeze blowing, it is perfect. The sleeves are LONG! I cut about 4 inches off and sewed a 1 inch hem all around. My only HUGE COMPLAINT ditch the huge logo! Who wants to wear a big sign on their arm..no one!

Sizes run 1 to 1.5 sizes larger. I have pfg shirts from a couple years ago and the sizes don't match up. It's not from shrinkage, I do not put it in the dryer. Other than that, quality if good.

The color is misleading it is not pink but more of a peach orange. I was hoping it was pink.

I have two Columbia PFG long sleeved shirts and I love them - wear them for anything from tennis to kayaking. I ordered two more in the same size, and was disappointed. The fit had changed: they were baggy and the sleeves were too long. The material also seemed flimsier. That might be a good thing in hot weather but they didn't drape as nicely as my other two.

My lady friends that work outdoors recommended this shirt since I like to run. It keeps you cool and you don't feel the sun tanning your skin as much. I ordered a medium, it fits in the bust (38D) but the sleeves went past my fingertips. Hate that I have to carry around alot of sleeve during my run.

I was very disappointed the color Tiki Pink is actually a light, neon-ish orange color. Any that like a light shade of orange will love this color! I would never have ordered it if the color names were more accurate. Returned it.

This shirt is hot. I was expecting this shirt to be cooler than it is. This material does not allow air to circulate in to your body. It's also clingy on your skin. Sun protection seems to be good.

I loved this shirt when it got home. But then I was turning it inside out to remove the little plastic for the tag, and found that a sleeve stitch line was open over a two inch section. That's not good, when they're supposed to be double stitched and secure, and to withstand normal activity. So now I am less happy with it from a quality perspective. But the material felt good, the fit was nice and loose, which I wanted (I sized up for this), and I was happy with how it looked, until I found the gaping hole. Now I will have to go through the hassle of return or exchange, and yeah, that definitely downgrades it.

Honestly, I don't normally leave negative reviews especially not to Columbia as I have loved their products for years, but this shirt was the most flimsy shirt I have ever purchased! Purchased an XXL as I am busty, so the shirt fit in that area, but the arms were enormous, it was like the shirt was out of proportion. Shirt was too short too, and I am only 5 foot 2. Please make these shirts in 100% Polyester, not this so called Polyester Interlock fabric! Otherwise these shirts will have to be a no go for me. Thanks

The fabric and looser fit was what I was looking for but I returned it. I'm okay with the Columbia logo on the arm but it was awfully large and had a plastic-y feeling.

Went on your site that morning and these shirts were 18 and change a piece...when I ordered later in the day, they were 35 a piece....I had already told the person I was buying for that woudl I get them for her...my last Columbia purchase.

First purchase on this site. I am a medium in most tops, sometimes a large. This shirt I purchased in Medium is way too big! Even with baggy sleeves, the seams are uncomfortable.

These seem like nice shirts and I would get some except for the large lettering.

Got this for my wife and she had worn it probably 5 times less than a month and seam on left upper arm already fall apart.
