Comparison of Columbia Tamiami II, Bahama II, & Bonehead PFG Shirts (and New Blood & Guts III)
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. Below I have noted the differences in these styles, for those trying to decide which shirt they may prefer.TAMIAMI II STYLE (POLY)The 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 (with poly liner), and the Bonehead (BH) is poplin cotton (with poly liner). The T2 is the thinnest/lightest (most breathable) material of the three styles, 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 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)The Bahama II is the middle ground between the T2 and the BH. It is synthetic - similar to the T2, but is nylon exterior shell with a polyester liner, without the cooling open-style weave of the T2 & BG3. 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, so if you do perspire heavily, it gives the material a slimy feel that I do not enjoy. The Bahama also wrinkles worse than any of the other PFG series shirts, so it is my least favorite series.BONEHEAD STYLE (COTTON)Most everything has already been covered. The BH and the aforementioned Ba styles look virtually identical. Essentially, I like the Bonehead for cooler weather, so I prefer 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 IIIWhen 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.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.

Runs a little big, but I will be buying more.
SIZING: The shirt does run a little big, so keep that in mind. I usually buy XXL cotton shirts (because they usually shrink down to proper XL size), but I bought this in XL and it is plenty roomy. Not too big, though, and had minimal to no shrinkage in the wash. Just right for me. It is nice being a little loose though, since you wear this type of shirt in the sun and heat.THE SHIRT: The sun and I have always had an agreement to disagree. And since having skin cancer already at the age of 25, I need to protect myself from the sun, no matter what the weather. So, I do not use this shirt as intended (for fishing) but as a lightweight sun-shirt for general wear. The fabric is 100% cotton, very light-weight, and fairly durable for its light-weightness (if that is a word :D...). It seems to breathe well with the vented back, and is quite cool, no pun intended.As a note: If you use this shirt to conceal a weapon, sew in a patch of heavier fabric where the pistol normally rides if you have a "snaggy" pistol. First day, my 1911's hammer made a nice rip on my right side. Not the shirt's fault, as a 1911 hammer can grab clothing very efficiently, but something to note.

Cotton. Pockets. style. Nuff said!
Love these shirts. the cotton (hate synthetic cloth) and love the multi pockets. the laundry and I wear them out after years of wear and I order more. I think only the Columbia Bonehead brand is the all cotton. These shirts for a dressier occasion and Carhart for work. All is right in the world!

Comfortable shirt with great sun protection
I love Columbia shirts in general. The fit is a bit wonky with some of their shirts, especially when you compare Bonehead and Tamiami. Bonehead tends to run larger than Tamiami, so keep that in mind. Order down in Bonehead, order up on Tamiami. At least that's been the experience for both me and my fiance. I ordered this shirt for me, a woman, because I have a similar men's shirt I bought locally and liked how it fit. I typically wear an L-XL in women's shirts, so you can see there's a big difference.The color is a bright, sunny yellow, and the picture portrays the color well. Rolling up the sleeves and buttoning them up can be a challenge, but you'll get it. This shirt is perfect for canoe trips or anytime you're going to be out in the sun for an extended period. I didn't get burnt at all ... until I rolled up the sleeves and forgot I was outside.

Florida Keys icon; cotton Bonehead is still the best!
The Bonehead cotton shirt is a south Florida icon, acceptable for both work and play as well as fishing. Almost a uniform in the Keys; in fact you see a lot of professional fishing captains wearing these. Bought a bunch for onshore field work a few years ago and they are still going strong.Overall quality: These are expensive shirts but the quality is evident. Almost too nice for dirty work but they wash well; the cotton is fairly tight weave. Cape back gives good ventilation but not really needed since the cordon breathes well. They dry fast when wet, not as fast as the all nylon or microfibers but these cotton shirts are more comfortable. If Columbia would make the Bonehead in a simple 60-40 cotton-nylon I would try that but the high-tech synthetics don't work for me.Fit: I am 5' 11" ~175 lbs medium build, 42 reg suit jacket, and have these shirts in both medium and large; both fit well with the medium looking more tailored and large being very roomy. Sleeves are gorilla length in large but I usually roll up part way so no problem. Button through loops hold sleeves up if you roll past elbows. Chest pockets are deep enough you do not worry about losing sunglasses or notebook.I buy these when they are on sale during off season; this classic will never go out of style in my lifetime! Hopefully Columbia keeps on making them.
