Last year we made the fabric in the tall REI Sahara T-shirt a little lighter. Customers and staff, though, asked for the original Sahara and we listened. And now ... Introducing the "new" old Sahara.

Polyester fabric has a soft cottonlike feel and is designed to draw moisture off of skin while you're logging miles on the trail; fabric dries quickly
With a UPF 15 rating, fabric provides good protection against harmful ultraviolet rays
Rolled-forward shoulder seams enhance comfort while wearing a pack
The REI Sahara T-shirt has a classic fit that's cut just right for easy wearing

Imported.

Comments about REI Sahara T-Shirt - Men's Tall:

I am 6'6", 160 lbs, and never have had such a great fitting shirt. Add in superior quality, and it's an easy 5-star rating. This polyester almost feels like cotton, looks great, and despite months of heavy use is indistinguisable from the new ones I just bought. Only caution: I would characterize these shirts as *extra* tall. I've a long torso for my height; chances are that skinny guys taller than 6'6" will love these too, but shorter folks may find the tails too long.

Comments about REI Sahara T-Shirt - Men's Tall:

This shirt was great but beware it is very tall. I am 6'4" and it was too long for me. I will be going to the reg. XL. Unless you like it well below your waist be aware.

Comments about REI Sahara T-Shirt - Men's Tall:

Thank you, REI (sincerely!), for making this shirt available in a medium-tall.

Some of you readers may have no idea how absurdly difficult it is to find active wear in a medium-tall. I am 6'5", and I weigh 185 pounds. Bone and muscle. However, most US retailers assume that if you're 6'5", you weigh in around 330 lbs. Challenge to the reader: cruise the 'net for an in-stock, stylish gym shirt in a medium-tall. Good luck with that.

So, yes, I just received two of these shirts via UPS, and these are slated to be my _workout shirts_. I tried them on, they fit beautifully, and they're in my washing machine now. Barring any unpleasant surprises following a wash and dry, I'm already in love with them. They're comfortable. They FIT. They're attractive. I can go to the gym without looking like a total bozo in a shirt that's either too baggy or too short (or both).

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Ordering three more after I submit this review. Not joking.

[ And for those of you who suspect I'm a shill after such glowing praise, go ahead and try out the challenge I proposed. ]

Comments about REI Sahara T-Shirt - Men's Tall:

As a skinny, wide-shouldered person with an aversion to wrinkles and corporate branding, I was having the darndest time finding t-shirts until I came across this!

Why this is the best shirt ever:

- 100% polyester = No wrinkles. Just wad that thing up and stuff it in your sock drawer! yes!
- Thick fabric and fine-spun fibres = soft, comfortable material that drapes well and doesn't retain odors like other synthetics you may be familiar with!
- Nice colors!
- No branding!
- Clever shoulder seams and collar!

Careful though, some variants of this shirt are made with an inferior fabric that pills badly. Not good!

Comments about REI Sahara T-Shirt - Men's Tall:

I usually don't like shirts that don't have cotton - most shirts made from 100% polyester tend to feel 'nylon-like' and do not have the softness of cotton - this shirt feels and looks like a soft cotton shirt, but has the aspects of Polyester (breaths, drys quick, wicking). If you're looking for a cotton-like, soft polyester shirt, this is the one! Also, the tall sizes fit great - longer in length and generous body cut. Thank you REI for making a great shirt for us tall folks!
