I was listening to the podcast with Tim Boyle of Columbia, great job Zach. He made a somewhat humorous statement about one of the problems that they have with their products is their durability. They don’t wear out. I laughed and then realized that I was, at that moment, wearing an olive green Columbia fishing shirt that is at least 15 years old. I know it is older than my daughter and she is 14 1/2. I bought it when I lived in Arizona. It has been worn a lot, fished in a lot. It is in great shape. Other than some Oak Creek Canyon Ponderosa Pine pollen stains it looks almost new.
When I bought the shirt no one wore those ‘funky shirts with the flaps in the back’ in public. I loved it. I wore it on the street because it is just so danged hot in Phoenix. When I fished people asked where I got it because they loved it.
I am wearing it in my avatar photo.

Phoenix hot? Nah. I’m in Tempe and it’s already ninety. Yeesh. Four hours in a car and you can run into an 8 foot snowdrift, but it sure as heck hot here.
Yep.
