Daily Driver Shirt Long Sleeve

I just recently went to Guyana, South America for three days on a work trip. I wore my grey Daily Driver shirt to fly and go directly to a site for technical assessments. I landed in Ogle airport which is hot, muggy, and stuffy. I then stood outside for 45 mins to wait for the driver.
My shirt was soaked through by the time we got to the hotel so I hung it on the back of a chair and changed for dinner.
I picked the shirt up the next day expecting some odor but it was still fresh, dry and not wrinkled. I was surprised by how quickly it dried considering its thickness. To contrast the polyester shirt I went to the gum with was dry but stunk to high heaven.
The shirt worked very well for both daytime and nighttime use; my only wish was a pocket to hold my passport or glasses.

It is a good shirt. But I was disappointed to find that it does not have a pocket. I have a short sleeve version which does have a pocket. And if you scroll through the pictures there is a close-up of a pocket. So I feel a bit deceived. I guess in retrospect that if you look closely at the frontal picture you can see this, but it is often hard to see the pocket in the pictures, and it was shown explicitly in other pictures. I use the pocket to carry my glasses when I am not wearing them, so this shirt cannot be used in various settings where I need to do that.

It is a smart looking shirt and is exactly what I expected, with the one exception that I wasn’t aware that it would be so tailored for a slim fit. This is fine for me, but was a surprise.

I got on if these shirts in the Winter of 2022 and held off on reviewing until I had worn it for a few seasons. Well there is so much to like about the shirt. The material is good looking, soft, and stretchy. I love that it allows you to move in it freely with the 4 way stretch. It looks good too. It has become one of my go-to shirts for those pesky events that require a collar. I tested the mountain to table concept when I wore it on a hike the Spring which took longer than I had hoped so I ended up going straight from the trailhead to meeting my date. I was psyched for the odor resistant feature that night for sure. I also took it on a trip where it got rolled up in my pack but once I took it out and hung it - no wrinkles. The built in glass cleaner has actually come in handy several times. Oh and for the strikers for collar stays - they work. I actually saw a fire started in under a minute with them.

I'll definitely be getting another of these shirts. I travel almost full-time. I have limited room for packing so every piece of clothing that goes in matters. I dont see a laundry but at best once every week or so which means my clothing has to look and smell good long past when a typical shirt would. The anti-microbial properties of this shirt do a fantastic job keeping the smells at bay and simply not allowing bacteria (what you smell) to grow requiring the typical wash requirements.

You can wear the shirt, take it off that evening, and by morning it's ready to go again. This is a huge deal when traveling for weeks at a time unable to keep the typical wear once then wash mentality you have at home. However, just because you dont travel full time doesn't mean you wont appreciate a shirt like this. It's extremely comfortable its breathability and stretchability.

Although the shirt has a weight to it leading you to believe it will be hot, it breathes extremely well making it perfect for numerous climates. It avoids odor and wrinkles like the plague and it's cut in a way that you dont snag things all the time because of it flailing in the wind. I really am tired of wearing tarps called shirts.

This shirt feels like a tailor fitted shirt and makes you feel confident on the trail or at the dinner party.

I'll definitely be adding another to my wardrobe!
