Marquesas All-Cotton Poplin Is Comfortable
Year-Round

Our Original Marquesas™ Shirt, updated for 2007, is our best-selling fishing and outdoor adventure shirt. It’s become one of our customers’ favorites as a casual basic for weekends. Named for the breathtaking atoll off Key West, Marquesas poplin is constructed of high-quality single-strand, thin-diameter cotton yarn woven tightly into a thin, crisp fabric. Because cotton holds 15% of its weight in water, and moves that moisture naturally to the outside of the garment, cotton feels cooler on hot days and is more comfortable next to the skin.

Field tested in the most demanding climates, we found that the tight weave of our Marquesas cotton stays cool and comfortable in all conditions—even the wilting heat of a tropical mid-afternoon sun. A lightly brushed, pre-washed finish feels soft on your skin and looks great while keeping you cool and refreshed. It's also micro-sanded for a softness that makes it feel like your favorite shirt right away.

Perk Perkins on the updated Marquesas shirtFor ten years, the Marquesas shirt has been the go-to shirt for many anglers, including myself.
Its 100% cotton is the perfect weight for a range of conditions, and its basic outdoor design gives you all you need without being busy. This year, we've updated the Marquesas to be better than ever. The fabric's the same great weight, but has a soft-brushed feel that's more comfortable right away than my broken-in shirts. Plus, it's more breathable and dries faster. The bi-swing back gives you plenty of casting room, but a new, trimmer cut means a better fit and far less flapping on the windy days. Add the extended cuffs to the long-sleeved shirt to keep the backs of your hands from sunburn and I've got a new favorite. It's sure to be yours, too.

Sizing Information for Orvis Men's Clothing

Orvis clothes are cut generously to accommodate an active country lifestyle. We build plenty of “wearing ease” in all our garments to ensure you will enjoy them for many years. We field-test all of them on associates, and we take into consideration how the clothing will be worn. For example, when we fit outerwear, we always size it with the appropriate layers beneath. That means you do not need to order a size up for a comfortable fit.

Not sure what size to order? Just chat, e-mail, or call 888- 235-9763 our Customer Service experts. They will be happy to give you the actual garment measurements for any item we sell.

How to Measure

Men's SizingIn all instances, hold tape firm and level, but not tight.
a. Head: Using a flexible/soft tape measure, start 1" above the ear. Follow around head staying 1" above the ear. This will give your most accurate reading. Then refer to the chart for size.
b. Neck Circumference: Wrap tape around to the base of your front neck and allow room for wearing comfort. OR measure the collar length of a favorite shirt.
c. Sleeve Length: From the center back of your neck with your arm slightly bent, follow the tape around to your wrist bone.
d. Chest: Wrap a tape measure evenly around the fullest part under your arms.
e. Waist: Wrap tape around your natural waistline, or where you actually wear your pants.
f. Seat/Hip: Standing with your feet together, measure around the fullest part of your hip (approx. 7-8" below the waist). Don’t forget to keep the tape level.
g. Inseam: Best taken from an existing pair of pants you like. Measure along the garment inseam from the crotch seam to the hem.
h. Glove Hand: Measure all the way around the flat part of your hand, excluding the thumb, and around the widest part at the knuckles. Use the chart above to convert this measurement in inches to your corresponding glove size.
