Fabric is great. Fades quickly in sun to vintage look.

@Mizmazzle Picked up a couple pairs of deck shorts and a black tiger shirt to try out. Will report back. Thank you!
-
@seawolf oh hell yeah man. Hope you dig em as much as I do. Those tiger linen shirts are really incredible. Did you go with the Premium deck shorts or the regular? I’ve only tried the premium. That material is super nice. Only shorts I’ve found that are worth taking off my XHS for haha
In the easy chair with my boots on, melted whiskey in my hand. Could'na been asleep for more than three hours...time to go to work again...

Also, it sounds very physical
It's hard for someone who has not done it quite how physical it is. I have done a lot of things in my life, but spending 12 hours a day standing up casting large lures, long distances in a small boat in a rough sea, and hopefully catching and playing large powerful fish is the most physically tiring thing I have ever done. After the first time I went to Oman, I started going to the gym to build up my strength. The first time I went to Morocco, I was not strong enough to play and land a single fish without help from My friend Szymon (who is half my age and built like a brick shithouse). Now I can land most fish I hook with no help.

Is a hip replacement something that you're planning on doing
Yes, had an MRI a couple of weeks back so we can plan what and when we do that.

@Mizmazzle I went with the regular because they weren’t as heavy, and since I only usually wear shirts in the extreme heat, I need them to be a little lighter. I was tempted though. Are they ever too hot?

@Sarina gave me a pair of these for Xmas. They are brilliant......

@mclaincausey These all look great! Bummed that all of their lounge shirts are sold out in my size. That lavender is awesome

ordered one of these
-
@endo i have it in gray. Since @seawolf mentioned liking the lavender one I will tag him too to say that it’s perfect for sitting around the pool. It’s a soft stretchy terry cloth.
Battenwear has become to my relaxing summer wear what Iron Heart is for my normal day to day wear. Though I do love my light IH gear for these purposes as well. The camp shorts and hiking pants and shorts are favorites too.

@mclaincausey Picked up a couple Battenwear items. Some local shorts and a terry tee that was half price. I'll definitely be back for a lounge shirt when they're back in stock. Thanks for the rec!
-
@Mizmazzle I haven't bought new summer clothes in years, so this is a big closet refresh! I'm stoked to have some killer pieces to wear!
-
Great fit @endo !!
-
@endo mine fits loose and looks kind of dumpy. Which is perfectly fine for its intended purpose but yours looks legitimately like something you could wear more broadly than I can my Fat Guy shirt
