Bug-repelling, sunblocking, and venting, the Viento provides side-to-side breezes on the front and back. Air flows through the on-seam vents, and the lightweight, UPF 30 fabric keeps you protected. Stay fresh: The patented SILVADUR polymer delivers silver ions to the fabric surface and activates them in the presence of undesirable bacteria, helping eliminate odor and keeping you fresher for the life of the garment. Bug blocking: BugsAway apparel is treated with Insect Shield , giving you invisible, odorless protection just by putting on your clothes. The treatment is bound to fabric fibers, so it stays in your clothes—not on your skin—and lasts through 70 washes. Ants, flies, chiggers, midges, and ticks don’t like it, and neither do mosquitoes, which can transmit insect-borne diseases such as Zika, Chikungunya, Dengue, and West Nile viruses.

A little tight and I don't have "meathead" arms...
Fits a little tight in the arms (bicep and forearm area). I'm not some meathead with 30" biceps and 20" forearms, but think they could put in some room into those areas. I ordered a large but now after a couple washes, those arms seemed to have gotten tighter and I never use the dryer and always hang dry. I also don't think that my arms got fatter, while my shoulders and belly feel the same size as when I bought the shirt.

Protection Plus
This is a terrific casual shirt for warmer weather. The sky color is light blue with a subtle, tiny plaid pattern.. It is attractive and science has shown that bugs tend to be attracted more to dark colors. It provides odor, insect and sun protection which is ideal if you work outside. There are vents on the seams that allow air to cool the skin. It is long sleeved but the fabric is light and breathable. The two front pockets are zipped which adds additional security. It has a flattering cut with vertical seams down the front. It is sufficiently long and adequately finished to wear out, not tucked in. If you have a bit of a jelly belly you might want to go up a size or wear it over a tee shirt. Machine wash cold separately from other garments and line dry. The permethrin treatment will last up to 70 washings. It has tags and a spare button. This shirt provides protection plus comfort and style.

Perfect for travel to a buggy place
My husband wore this in Cambodia where bad bugs are a real concern. Nothing bothered him and he looked good too! Very good value for this shirt. ExOfficio is a great brand.
