Long sleeve blaze orange shirts in NoVA?

Post by Mindflayer »

Any recommendations for men and women wear? We happened to be in MI last weekend and grabbed a couple of shirts, but short sleeve. I prefer long even in the summer - them ticks and Mosquitos love me.

Other than Cabelas or Bass Pro haven't seen any (yet). Couldn't you just wear a lightweight longsleeve shirt underneath and an orange vest/shirt loosely over the top of it ?

I could, but my metabolism is such that I sweat a lot. I like to keep light and cool as possible.

FiremanBob, I was looking at those shorts last night. Shame the Tysons' store does not have them in stock.

I've got a couple of these sets

Cheap, and easy to slip over a short sleeve shirt to stay cool. Having a few blaze orange caps around is nice too.

Buy'em online. Free shipping. I have three and love them.
