haven't noticed any smell from mine. usually I wear wool, so I'm used to no smell at all. If my Shebeest develops and odor I will certainly notice it. (I'll let y'all know)

Hold onto your wallet! But I LOVE my Solumbra clothing. It is light, very well ventilated, and you do not burn in it! And it is durable too. Washes easily in the sink and dries fast for travel. Nice colors - I get compliments. You will like it. Tokie

Anyone have experience with Coolibar? I did a search on Solumbra and found them. They seem a little less expensive.

I do not know if you have tried the Coloumbia Sportswear co. Team High Road is now sponsored by them. (How lucky are they?) I have used their "fishing" shirts as over shirts for hiking and generally being outdoors in the summer. For hiking, my "undershirt" is something like a good wicking tee. Now that they are making them, I might check into a mountain bike jersey. They are lightweight. There are light colors and they have vents in the back.
I think LLBean sells something similar in their travel wear sections.
I hope this helps.
