Customer Reviews Columbia PFG Armadale™ Tunic

This shirt is so classy and yet it has all the features I was looking for. It provides sun protection and keeps you cool in addition to making you look great!

I'll admit that I feel like an art teacher wearing this shirt for some reason...but because it's smock-like, it's loose and cool, yet completely sun-protective. I love having the option of roll-up sleeves. To make it look slightly less casual, I removed the tag from the pocket...it looks great!

Super soft and comfortable material. Great with leggings!

I'm really surprised how much I love this tunic. Literally wear it every day, whether it's hot, chilly, or whatever. Perfect for keeping bugs off (especially flies) when I'm working in my garden, and a nice option to throw over a tank or tshirt when I need to look a little more presentable. Super lightweight fabric, but keeps the early morning chill at bay. Can't say enough good things about this item, which is rarely the case for me, as I'm a tshirt/jeans type gal.

I bought this shirt in my normal M size, and it was rather large when it arrived. I probably could have ordered a S and been just fine. For reference, I am 5'8", 165 lbs and pear-shaped. However, due to the tunic style and my own laziness, I decided to keep the M rather than deal with an exchange. Fit issues aside, the color of this shirt is pretty and vibrant. It washes and dries well, without wrinkling. It is perfect for travelling, and just the right length to wear with my leggings and still have some bum coverage!

I am 5'5" and 126 pounds and ordered a small. I definitely could have done the extra small, as there is lots of extra room (a bit baggy), but I bought it for a trip to Alaska and it will do. Will be great with leggings and boots, since it covers my bum. Pretty color (lollipop). Would order again, but go down a size.

Would have five stars, but the pockets don't seem to lie close to your hips when open and make your hip line look slightly wider if pockets are open. I REALLY like the style otherwise...the fabric is lightweight and I like the V neckline. I am going overseas next week and wanted lightweight fabric which will wash and dry and pack easily. This shirt will do that.. The shirt has a kind of different style in the back which overlaps; it is very different and I like it making it more stylish than just a plain back. I really like that is has pockets, but I suppose pockets at hip length might enhance the width of my hips.

Did not keep this shirt, fabric may be hot in summer. Design was great though.
