I was intrigued. Then it happened. I came across a table of Orvis fly fishing shirts for $14.99, and it stopped me in my tracks. At first, I was confused: "Orvis? Costco?" Then I became skeptical ...

I'm a big believer of form following function, especially in fly fishing apparel. There are long days on the water, inclement weather, rough terrain that will challenge the intergrity of the clothing.
