原文:PFG FITColumbia makes some fantastic shirts, but make sure to order the appropriate size. I am 5’10”, 195 lbs, and would typically wear a Large in most similar styled (button-up) shirts, but I have to get a Medium in Columbia PFG shirts. (The Medium is still a moderately loose fit, as the Large is
like a tent on me). Tip number two is that because these shirts are on different sizing scale, many get returned to the Amazon Warehouse, so keep an eye for Amazon Warehouse deals on these shirts (see tips to finds the easiest way to compare prices across sizes and colors at the conclusion of this review). I have tried the Tamiami II, Bahama II, and Bonehead (AND new Blood & Guts III see below for updated comparison including the BG3 series) versions of the Columbia PFG shirts, and have been mostly pleased with all of them. The Tamiami II was my favorite due to the cooling effect of the weave, but the similar Blood & Guts III is now right there with it. My reasoning for giving the Bahama II 4 starts instead of 5, is that out of the four series discussed in this review, it is my least favorite. The Bahama II tends to wrinkle, is not as cool feeling in extreme heat as the open weave Tamiami or Blood&Guts, and the nylon tend to feel slimy during periods of heavy perspiration. Below I have noted the differences in four of the PFG styles, for those trying to decide which shirt they may prefer.TAMIAMI II STYLE (POLY) - SUMMERTIME CASUAL FAVORITEThe Tamiami II (T2) and the Blood & Guts III (BG3) are my favorite of the aforementioned PFG styles. The main difference between each of these styles is material. The T2 & BG3 are 100% polyester (liner and exterior), the Bahama II (Ba2) is nylon, and the Bonehead (BH) is poplin cotton. The T2 is the thinnest/lightest (most breathable) material of the three styles, also has a slightly shinier appearance, and is probably the most wrinkle resistant of the three (as the fabric is less rigid that the nylon Bahama II or cotton Bonehead). (Update 7/11/16 The Blood & Guts series is also breathable polyester similar to the Tamiami with a slightly different styling, and stain resistant fabric. See update at end of review for full comparison.) The T2 has a snap button pocket on top with Velcro pockets underneath on both sides, which I also prefer over the pocket style on the other two (Ba2 & BH have identical pocket styles). The synthetic T2 and Ba2 both wick moisture and create a cooling effect better than the cotton BH, but the lightness and weave of the T2 makes it by far the coolest wearing of the three. For outdoor activity in the heat and humidity of summer, it would definitely be my preferred choice. The long-sleeve version is fantastic for offshore fishing when lightweight sun protection is essential. The Ta series also does not wrinkle as badly as the Ba and BH series shirts do. (The PFG apparel which has an SPF rating, such as the Tamiami & Blood/Guts series, has an open fabric weave which is “lose” enough to allow some penetration of UV through the material itself; which means the material is much more breathable ergo cool feeling, although technically you could get some UV exposure through the shirt.)BAHAMA II STYLE (NYLON) - WORK WEAR IN MILD WEATHERThe Bahama II is the middle ground between the T2 and the BH. It is synthetic - similar to the T2, but is a nylon exterior shell with a polyester liner (whereas T2 is poly liner and shell). The pockets on the Ba are the same traditional Columbia PFG look as the pockets on the Bonehead. The slightly more rigid feel of the nylon, also gives the Bahama a more traditional (cotton-look) appearance than the T2. In a certain respect, the Ba nylon manages moisture better than the BH cotton version i.e. it evaporates sweat more quickly. On the other hand, the nylon does not absorb moisture as cotton does, so while it does dry faster, it has a “slimy” feel to when sweaty that simply is not comfortable. The Bahama also wrinkles worse than any of the other PFG series shirts, so it is my least favorite series. That said, it is still a good quality shirt, and makes for a great work shirt during temperate weather (i.e. when it isn’t going to get slimy with sweat).BONEHEAD STYLE (COTTON) - COOL WEATHER FAVORITEMost everything has already been covered. The BH and the aforementioned Ba styles look virtually identical. Essentially, I like the Bonehead over the Bahama because it does not get that slimy feeling when you sweat, and it is slightly better from a wrinkle perspective. The Bonehead is probably my favorite series when moisture management and cooling effect are not important, so I like these in long sleeve for fall and winter wear. I also like the traditional appearance of the Ba and the BH for work wear, but the T2 look I like better for casual. (The newer Blood & Guts series has the comfort of the Tamiami series, but has a look similar to the Bonehead, so it is my new favorite summertime work shirt.) The Bonehead long sleeve also makes a great layering option for hunting season, and Sage is a great natural neutral (earth tone) color for this purpose.UPDATE 7/11/16 BLOOD & GUTS III (POLY) - HOT WEATHER FISHING FAVORITEWhen this review was originally posted, I only contrasted the Bahama, Tamiami, and Bonehead series shirts, but recently I have found a new favorite the Blood & Guts III (BG3). While the name may not be all that appealing, these are really great shirts. They have an SPF rating, therefore breathable/open weave, similar to the Tamiami, with a styling that more closely resembles the Bahama & Bonehead series. The BG3 is also treated for stain resistance, making it a great shirt for fishing, work, and outdoor activities. Finally, the BG3 does not wrinkle nearly as severely as the Bahama nylon or Bonehead cotton shirts do. Out of the four PFG series shirts discussed, the BG3 series probably have the tightest fit. I still wear a medium in the BG3, but the series has a slimmer type cut than the previous versions discussed. All in all, this is my favorite alongside the Tamiami. I slightly prefer the Blood & Guts for fishing due to the stain resistance, whereas, I prefer the Tamiami for casual and boating wear just from an aesthetic standpoint. The Tamiami may have the slightest of edges in the cooling department, but they are very close in that regard.AMAZON PRICE COMPARISON & WAREHOUSE DEALSI found myself getting very aggravated at the way Amazon lists apparel items with multiple colors, as it can take forever to search through multiple color (and size) options to see the cheapest offerings. On my iPad version, the color prices are displayed in a list style automatically, but on my PC desktop I would have to select each color/size to see the price options. I finally found a simpler way. Follow these steps:>Select a color and size option for the shirt.>Look on the right hand side of the screen to see if there are multiple offers for this garment. If so, select the “new and used from” (or “new” if no used offerings available) icon, which will take you to a list view screen. (There must be multiple offerings for the exact size and color selected for this option to appear, so if you do not see the “new and used from” hyper-link, then select another size/color combination till the link appears.)>In the list view screen, select your size and click the “lowest offer for each” icon beside the color selector. This will display the cheapest offering for each color shirt in that size, so you can quickly see which colors are the cheapest. Also, this view will show any Amazon Warehouse Deals available. As mentioned in the first paragraph, these shirts get returned often due to sizing issues, and many times the Warehouse deals are shirts that were tried on, then immediately returned for a smaller size.THANKSThanks for reading my review.

译文:PFG FIT
哥伦比亚衬衫的质量一般都很棒,但你一定要买到适合自己的尺寸。我身高5'10'',体重195磅,平时穿的都是风格比较相似的大码衬衫。但是哥伦比亚PFG衬衫,我一定要穿中号的。(中码穿在身上还是蛮宽松的,我要是穿大码的话就像顶着一顶帐篷在身上)。我要给出的第二个友情提示是,这些衬衫有不同规模的尺寸,有很多是其他买家退货退回到亚马逊仓库的。所以你一定要留意这些衬衫的库存。(最好是通过各种评论的总结找到最简单的方法,来判定不同尺寸和颜色的衬衫的价格。)
我穿过Tamiami II、Bahama II和Bonehead (还有新款new Blood & Guts III,详情请参阅下面的更新内容,包括BG3系列)的哥伦比亚PFG衬衫,我对它们都很满意。Tamiami是我最喜欢的衬衫,因为它能够降温。但是和他们很像的Blood & Guts Ⅲ 现在也有了这种功能。我给Bahama打了四颗星而不是五颗星的原因是, 在这篇评论中讨论的四个系列中,它是我最不喜欢的一款。Bahama II会起皱,在极端高温下不会像Tamiami或Blood&Guts穿起来那样凉爽,在大汗淋漓的时候尼龙材质的衣服穿起来会感觉到黏糊糊的。以下内容是关于四种PGF款式的差异,希望它们能够对你们决定想要买哪一种中意的款式起到一点作用。
TAMIAMI II (POLY领)
夏季最佳休闲搭配
Tamiami II (T2)和Blood & Guts III (BG3)是上述PFG风格中我最喜欢的两款,这些款式的主要差异在于材质的不同。T2和BG3是100%聚酯材质(内衬和外衬),Bahama II (Ba2)是尼龙材质,Bonehead (BH)是poplin棉制成。T2的材质是这三款中最薄/最轻(最透气)的材料,外观也略显鲜亮,可能是这三款中抗皱性最强的一款(因为面料的硬度不及尼龙Bahama II和棉质的Bonehead)。
( 7/11/2016更新:Blood&Guts系列也是一种透气的聚酯材质,和Tamiami类似,但他的款式又略有不同,面料的防污渍能力比较强。可以参考文章底部的最新更新内容)T2胸口部位设计了一个口袋,下摆处设计了两个尼龙塔扣的口袋。我也蛮喜欢另外两款的口袋风格(Ba2 & BH口袋设计风格很相似)。合成材质的T2和Ba2都具有吸湿和凉身效果,比棉质的BH要好,但T2的轻盈度和织法使它成为这三款衣型中最酷的一款。在炎炎夏日开展户外活动的话,T2绝对是我的首选。长袖衬衫非常适合海上捕鱼,因为轻便的防晒是必不可少的。Ta系列也不像Ba和BH系列衬衫那样皱褶极其严重。(PFG服装具有SPF等级,如Tamiami & Blood/Guts系列,有一种开放的织物组织,阻挡了紫外线穿透衣服;这意味着这种材料更透气,也更凉爽,尽管从技术上讲,还是会有一部分紫外线穿透你的衬衫。)
BAHAMA II (尼龙材质)
-适合在温和天气里穿着
BahamaⅡ 的地位处于T2和BH之间。它是合成材质类似于T2,但它是尼龙外衬和聚酯衬垫(而T2是聚乙烯衬垫和外衬)。Ba上的口袋和Bonehead上的口袋风格看起来很像,都是传统的哥伦比亚PFG风格。尼龙的质感稍硬一些,也使得棉质Bahama的款式比T2的款式更加传统。在某种程度上,Ba尼龙款吸汗以后会比BH干得更快。另一方面,尼龙不像棉那样吸收水分,所以虽然它干得更快,但出汗的时候会有一种“粘滑”的感觉,会感觉不舒服。Bahama的褶皱比其他任何PFG系列衬衫都要严重,所以这是我最不喜欢的系列。但这并不影响它成为一件质量超棒的衬衫,在温和的天气时(也就是它不会因出汗而变得粘滑),它是一件很适合工作时穿着的衬衫。
BONEHEAD (棉质)
-凉爽天气的首选
很多方面都已经提到过了。BH和前面提到的Ba的风格看起来几乎相同。从本质上说,比起Bahama我更喜欢Bonehead,因为出汗时Bonehead不会有那种粘粘的感觉,而且Bonehead的衣服不会像Bahama那样皱巴巴的。如果我不考虑衣服汗水的蒸发情况和凉身效果的话,Bonehead可能是我最喜欢的系列,所以我喜欢这些长袖秋冬装。我也喜欢传统的Ba和BH款式,很适合工作的时候穿着。但是T2 的款式更加休闲。(新款Blood&Guts系列拥有Tamiami系列的舒适感,但外观与Bonehead相似,因此它是我最喜欢的夏季工作服。)Bonehead长袖也是狩猎季节的最佳选择,而Sage色是狩猎状态里最自然的中性色(即土色)。
7/11/201更新
Blood&Guts III(poly)
-炎热天气钓鱼的最佳穿着
当这篇评论最初发布时,我只对比了Bahama、Tamiami和Bonehead系列的衬衫,但最近我发现了一个新的最爱Blood&Guts III (BG3)。虽然名字可能不那么吸引人,但它们都是很棒的衬衫。它们有防晒指数等级,因此很透气,类似于Tamiami,其款式更接近于Bahama & Bonehead系列。BG3防污能力也很强,使它成为钓鱼、工作和户外活动的不二之选。最后,BG3的起皱程度远不及尼龙材质的Bahama和Bonehead棉衬衫。在讨论过的四款PFG系列衬衫中,BG3系列可能是最贴身的一款。我仍然穿中码的BG3,但是这个系列要比之前讨论过的那些系列更加贴身。总之,这款和Tamiami是我最喜欢的款式。由于耐污性,我会更喜欢穿Blood&Guts来钓鱼,而从美学的角度来看,我更喜欢穿Tamiami。Tamiami在衣服边缘有凉身的设计,但它们两者的这个性能都比较好。
亚马逊价格比较和仓库库存
我发现自己对亚马逊列出多种颜色的服饰的功能感到非常恼火,因为在多种颜色(和尺寸)选项中搜索到最便宜的商品可能要花很长时间。在我的iPad版本中,颜色价格会自动以列表形式显示,但在我的个人电脑桌面上,我必须选择每种颜色/大小才能看到价格选项。现在我终于找到了一种更简单的方法。只要遵循以下步骤:
>选择衬衫的颜色和尺寸。
>查看屏幕右边,看看是否有多种选项的报价。如果有,选择“new and used from”图标(或者“new”,如果没有可用选项的话),它将带您跳转到列表视图页面。(必须有多个选项显示为该选项选择的确切大小和颜色,所以如果您没有看到“new and used from”超级链接,那么请选择另一个大小或者颜色组合,直到链接出现。)
>在列表视图页面上,选择您的大小并单击颜色选择器旁边的“lowest offer for each”图标。这将显示每种颜色衬衫的最便宜的价格,所以你可以快速地看到哪种颜色衬衫的价格是最便宜的。另外,此视图将显示所有有效的Amazon Warehouse协议。正如第一段中提到的,这些衬衫经常由于尺寸问题而被退回,而且很多时候仓库里的库存都是其他买家试穿过又马上退回换取小码的衬衫。
谢谢。
谢谢你阅读了我的评论。
