As I wear them more and more, I’m always looking for sun shirts that are more than a long-sleeved t-shirt with a hood. The Hybrid Tahoe is a step in the right direction, great fabric and colors with a snap front and useful front pockets — which unfortunately won’t stay shut because the tiny plastic pocket snap closures are so unreliable. The larger snap closures on the front of the shirt seem to work fine so far, but I am concerned that they might be a weak link in the long run, too. I don’t understand how other vendors have perfectly useful snap buttons on performance fabric western-style shirts, but Backcountry decided to go another route. I’m keeping it, but I shouldn’t be worried that I might need to replace something as basic as a snap closure on a $100 sunshirt from a reputable vendor. Time will tell.

I really like the fit and style of this shirt as it is a little different from the standard pull over sun hoody (not as clingy). It is a good adituon to my fly fishing and backpacking trips. It is a little heavier than my other sun hoodys but the material also feels a bit more substantial. I am not sure if the pockets will get much use but the zippered one can act as a vent when open. The only real issues are 1. The funky plastic snaps in place of buttons...why? Do they do something different? They are a little cumpersome and you are never quite sure if they are snapped correctly. Please explain. 2. The branding is a bit much...the logo plus the Backcountry name? Again why? Pick one and make it subtle please. I like it enough to buy another in a different color so we shall see how well they hold up.
