Has anyone use this lightweight line of clothing? How did it hold up? Was it comfortable in hot weather?

I'm interested in this also.  Also, how does the Cotton Mill material compare to the Tibbee?

I bought the mossy oak greenleaf last year in the cotton mill pants and i wouldn't want them any thinner because if it's one of those 40 degree morning your going to wish you had a under layer on with these pants..now if it's in the 70 you will be fine with these pants..So if those Tibbee are any thinner i wouldn't want them not much protection on the legs..From what i'v read the cotton mill is a lot softer material and doesn't fade as bad as the tibbee..

I'm thinking you have the two mixed up.

Tibee is thinner than cotton mill. I have some but haven't had it long enough to add much.

tibbee feels like you have on a wax paper shirt.

No..I don't have them mix up Palongspur..The cottom aren't that thick either..I'm sure the tibbee are thinner than the cottom mill...

I much prefer the cotton mill. The tybee is not comfortable when it's hot.

I also have both, and very much like both.  The comfort issue above hasn't been my experience.  I like the lighter weight for later in the season.

A wash cycle made a difference with the texture.  I have the shirt and pants in Greenleaf and found them very comfy.  JMHO.

Two years ago, I bought the Tibbee pants and shirt first because it was purportedly lighter, ripstop material.

I had to send it back and exchanged for the cotton mill because they did not fit, the shirt in L was cut like a medium.  The pants were off too, maybe not a full size too small.  The woman I spoke with told me that they had that experience with other customers.  The cotton mill is a little heavier, a brushed cotton twill, and heavier than off the shelf BDU's but similar to some MO Obsession pants that Wally Mart is selling. 

The Tibbee fabric is pretty close to ripstop military BDU's in terms of weight.  The question is whether they have a better contractor for them now, and you might need to call them and discuss whether they are running true to size.  You might consider ordering one in your size and one up to see how it works out.  Some contractors in Asia just cannot maintain consistency in fit and quality.

This would be a steal if you can find them in stock sommers:

The cotton mill run true to size in my experience. I have a 36 waist and the large pants and shirt are perfect.

Ok....welll I'm round 6'3 240....38-39 waist......so i'll probably have to go with XL then in pants and 2XL shirt...
