the loose fitting tactical gear is great for people who fish in the summer under the sun and don't want to get there arms burnt. They keep you cooler than a normal shirt and they wisk away the sweat. I had a tourny on the Ohio River last june and wearing a long sleeve tactical gear shirt I was amazed how confortable I was, plus I did not get sunburned at all. Scared if i took my shirt off may be an albino whale sighting in the Ohio....
Of course I am a tournament fisherman so whatever I say is not true.....
