Columbia Sportswear Women's Saturday Trail II Long Sleeve Shirt

I absolutely loved the fabric, the color (stone blue) and the styling of this blouse. The cut is actually far more attractive than on the pictured model. This is the office appropriate Columbia I've been waiting for, except...I'm 5'3" and the sleeves are way too long. The sleeve length on the Medium is 22 inches. Unfortunately, I had to return it but I will be on the lookout for petite sizes.The blouse is made in Vietnam. It looks like it would require light ironing.These are some of the great features:Super-silky fabricArmpit gussets for ease of movement.Columbia logo is discreetVented back panel is discreet and stylishly cut.There is shaping front and back to define waist. It does not hang straight as shown on the model.Security pocket on one side does not significantly affect the silhouette - I think that having it is well worth the trade-off

I didn't end up keeping this shirt, although I really liked the cut and its details. I felt it was more feminine than the shirt I did keep (White Mountain), but I didn't like the color. I had bought the fossil, thinking it would be a light pink/blush color but it was a light tan. I had really wanted white but wasn't willing to spend the extra money on the white shirt by Columbia (it was almost $20 more). Since I didn't keep it, I can't say how it would have worn/held up in washings.

I'm not a fan of collared button down shirts, but I really love this. The style and detailing looks classy and tailored. The fabric is silky but weighty enough to keep its shape. The back vents are very strategically positioned so this shirt doesn't scream "I just came from a hike". The color (fossil) is so versatile that I can go from a hike to a restaurant without feeling out of place.The sizing was fine for me. It's not baggy at all, but I can still move freely. The sleeves were a tad long, but I don't expect mass clothing manufacturers to be able to fit my measurements perfectly.

I bought this for traveling and was tired of looking like a guy wearing the Columbia shirts with the pockets on front. This is a beautifully tailored look. Sooooo much better looking than on this model!! I usually buy women's XL to have a little 'wiggle room' but this fits perfectly so if you are right on the line on a size, I'd say it runs just a tad towards the smaller end. The material is silky and washes well. My only complaint is I wish it was a little less see through but I'll just wear a camisole.

I bought this as a hiking shirt but it is not built for the trails. The shirt is pretty and silky, with utilitarian details (such as the venting) hidden beneath pleats and gathers. There are weird zipper pockets on the front waist that seem rather pointless considering the placement and the sheer fabric. I bought the coral and it is very sheer. The fabric creases very easily and remains wrinkled, despite a quick toss in the dryer. I will use this when I'm out running around in the sun, but I will order the Columbia Tamiami II for hiking (I bought my mom one and it was perfect for this use).

The shirt is nice and fits well. The sleeves are a bit long. My problem with this shirt is that it arrived very winkled and I have now washed it 8 times and it is still winkled. I wear it for outdoor activities but not for going into town.

Love this shirt....I read a lot of the reviews before I bought it.... I bought the Razzle color it is beautiful color I Love how it is fitted & not frumpy. It has a vented area up by the sholder that is well hidden but yet very dressy yet functionable. I bought this for a bike tour I'm doing it going to work out Great for me.K. Manx

Highly recommended to buy easy and comfy to wear the problem is they don't have enough color variation. Wish they will make more of this in the future.
