I’m in the market for a long sleeve “travel” shirt. I just got a Craghopper and am quite happy with it but since I was in the market for two I’m going for something different. ExOfficio’s stuff and their Air Strip is a strong contender now.
I’ve been buy up merino wool shirts of both the long and short sleeve variety so the “travel” shirts are the top layer. If the travel shirt was anti-odor/anti-bacterial like the Merino wool or silver thread stuff that would be ideal. Don’t think I’m a stinky guy. I’m planning a hitchhiking trip down Rt66 and even though I’ll wash and shave each morning the actual showers wont come daily so I’m trying the Merino wool route for my trip down the Rt. I tested the first shirt I got extensively because I didn’t believe it or thought it would wash away in the laundry.
Anyway, I just don’t wanna be stinkin’ when I ain’t gotta. Especially when doing something as American as hitching Rt66, I may do it with an apple pie and a baseball glove(they might not pull over had I the bat).
Thanks in advance.
