I’m looking for something for high humidity days in the sun. Something real loose-fitting. The oversize sleeves on the gray shirt is the kind of thing I want, but full length. I don’t care about pockets, w or w/o, doesn’t matter.

If you’re set on that style, I can’t help. 
I will say a loose fitting angler shirt will be more beneficial, both in keeping you cool and sun protection.

I'm not dead-set on that style, it just looks like the air would flow through something like that a lot better and keep the hot fabric away from your skin better than the angler shirts I normally see.

 

I just thought I would ask if anyone wears anything different from the normal gear.

Pretty sure this one comes with a hat ~

Perhaps Johnny Depp ???  Idk

Once natural fabrics like the shirts above get wet with sweat, they will stick to your skin and you will stay hot....  This, of course, depends on your body type, age and how well you sweat. I would go with a regular fishing shirt or my personal favorite, a Patagonia Capilene hoody. 

HUK, Columbia, Simms & Buff all make quality sun protection gear.

I see what you're saying.  Something loose-fitting, but made of lightweight material.

 

Not sure something like that exists.

I think something that loose-fitting would be a hindrance in the long run. When idle it’s probably great. But when casting, fighting a fish, etc., my guess it’s more a pain than a godsend.

Sister Bertrille is NOT happy!

 

And I’m not happy I knew that with Googling it! ?

Huk shirts are great, never get really sweaty in them, and I’ve fished some hot days.

Not sure where to find what you’re look for though.  Amazon?

I have these in short and long sleeved. They are lightweight and loose fitting

Got some as a promo giveaway from reel purchases. Get a size on the larger size for you so it fits loose. They work in Louisiana's humidity and are my absolute favorite fishing shirt: https://daiwa.us/collections/apparel/products/tatula-performance-long-sleeve-shirt

I've worn shirts like that in short sleeve, like XXL, and they're great for the kind of weather I'm talking about. And I've had one long sleeve shirt like that that was really comfortable too that was like XXLL, and they were all 100% cotton. The material was light, but stiff, so it wasn't clingy and itchy like polyester is to me.

Magellan Outdoors ?

 

Same as the high dollar stuff but I got money left over for gas in the boat.

Agree on Magellan outdoors. I just get the standard summer UV fishing shirt. They're made a little big  so are loose and comfortable, with plenty of pockets.

I just buy my long sleeves on ebay, they are only $10-11 a piece. They are very lightweight and keep you as cool as you can be in the hot summer. They are thinner/lighter than some of the other brands and they've held up well over a few seasons.

Calling Don Johnson. He will know..

 

 

 I did a search of "Miami Vice" on Amazon and found something close lol,,sorry just having fun ?

I don't think these shirts will display my beer belly like a performance sunshirt does.

I think you have hit the nail on the head. ?

I don’t love the synthetic pull over all that much.  They do work as promise tho. 
 

I wear a loose fitting Simms Big Sky button up and it’s the best shirt for me.  Air flow is awesome and I don’t get that funky BO like from the pull overs.

Man, I’m not even that overweight but as soon as my sun hoodie goes on it looks like I’m carrying twins. Maybe next time I’ll see if I can find one with vertical stripes.  

You could always buy shirts two sizes too big. Something I have found that works like you are describing is a thin white dress shirt. Unbutton the cuffs and first few buttons and let it flow. 

I've purchased some of the Magellan outdoors shirts. Great shirt at a reasonable price. I've bought some Realtree Fishing shirts at Walmart. They are also good shirts, although a little stiff until you wash them a few times. Worldwide Sportsman shirts at Bass Pro are good. All of those shirts are every bit as good as my Columbia PFG shirts.
