Head SE from Florida’s Hillsboro Inlet, 53 nautical miles, and you’ll come upon North Bimini, a boomerang shaped island perched on the edge of the Gulf Stream. The eastern arm of the island, barely 700ft at its widest point, stretches to the northeast for about 7 miles before making an abrupt swing to the south, where it widens across the shallows of the Great Bahama Bank into a swarm of mangrove forests that still today, are considered one of the world’s most ecologically important nurseries for all matter of fish and shellfish. This international treasure of wilderness is overshadowed by the sportfishing adventures of men like Michael Lerner, Zane Grey and Ansil Saunders that brought fame and notoriety to this humble spit of sand. Their stories, recounted and magnified tenfold in the cavernously crusty old bar of the Complete Angler Hotel, were amplified by newspaper and sporting journals…and by one particularly noteworthy bit of writing: Islands In The Stream, published in 1970, written by one of Bimini’s best known protagonists, Ernest Hemingway.
Look at the old photographs…they all wore shirts like this. Shirts with purpose and attitude.
Our Bimini Short Sleeve Shirt is built to be the best for the purpose for which it was intended: fishing the Gulf Stream, in comfort. And you can’t have comfort without the proper fabric. We use a 140x1 compact yarn to build our Bimini Short Sleeve shirt. Why? This combination of yarn size and compact construction yields a finer, smoother fabric that is extremely light weight, just 2.2 oz / sq.mtr. And attitude plays a big part in how this shirt is patterned out and constructed. Uncomplicated. A simple camp collar design that lays the entire collar down… around your neck, not up on your neck, and in front, down and away from the throat. You’ll stay cooler that way. One center back pleat, an ample sized front chest pocket and of course properly cut shirttail that you wear tucked or untucked, with our signature shirttail flap buttons.
While we are pretty sure few of these shirts will ever absorb the hot sun and the breezy salt air of August in Bimini, sporting one at your next neighborhood bar-b-q will take you to Bimini and back…before anyone realizes you’ve been temporarily away from a boring conversation about your neighbor’s lawn fertilizer.

My Bimini shirts (I have four colors) make me feel like a Mercury astronaut on a deep sea fishing trip off Cocoa Beach in 1961. They're absolutely classic - and after waiting three seasons for new colors, I can report that the new ones are even better. They feel storied. Thanks AR.
So glad I happened upon Atlantic Rancher. These shirts are a must for the summer. Breezy, super sharp looking, and comfortable as can be. I originally bought a medium but exchanged for a large. Im 6’ 170 pounds and the large is perfect. I’m a customer for life and can’t wait to check out their other products. Engle responded to my inquiries super fast as well. What a great small business owner.
My go to shirt this hot summer. I have 5 various brand summer button ups and none are close to this in breathability and lightweight comfort. I found the sizing to be spot on, mine is neither too large or too small.
Bimini Short Sleeve Cotton Shirt- Plaids - FINAL SALE
Just received my new Bimini shirt. I have two other Bimini shirts. They are expensive…Cost per wear will go down as you wear them more.
These are the lightest, coolest shirts I have ever worn…the fabric is silky smooth…Helps keep me cool in the Summer heat and humidity…Bimini shorts and pants would be incredible.

Love the shirt super lightweight great for those hot summer days!
The shirt fits great, great material on a hot day. Just what I was looking for!
as the title says, this is literally by far the lightest shirt i have ever worn. i have made the comment several times to friends that it feels like wearing air. Indiana summers can be hot and humid, and this shirt has been absolutely awesome with it. i personally wear it casually to go grocery shopping, going to the bars, out to get food, etc. i wouldn't wear it to do anything to genuinely physical because its so light it feels like it might rip or get damaged? but I don't think that is what the shirt is designed for so im not upset about that at all. i have other shirts that can fill that roll. really awesome shirt though, 10/5, no notes :)
hi Tanner...thanks for the review on the Bimini Shirt. Please, don't feel like you have to baby this baby! The fabric is tough, it'll hang together and you don't have to worry about it giving out. Fish deep, swing your clubs hard, buy as many groceries as you can carry, drink responsibly and know when to leave the bar. -- Engle
The best hot weather poplin I've ever worn. Really the only non-linen fabric that is truly fit for the hot days of summer. Dries nearly as fast as nylon blends and is twice as comfortable.
tip top as always
my favorite shirt when its hot out. very light
Excellent shirts — nice ultralight handfeel, fantastic for the dog days of summer. Love the colors of the plaids, the cut, the airiness, and the quick drying quality.
The Boatyard Shirt and Hudson Canyon 1/4 Zip Sweater are of exceptional quality. I’m 6’2” and 160 lbs, and a medium fit me well in both items.
I bought one and it was so good I went back for seconds. Can’t recommend this shirt enough. Super comfortable for hot weather days. Looks sharp tucked or not. Can’t recommend enough.
This is absolutely one of the most comfortable shirts I’ve ever worn. Then to top it off it’s great looking. I’ve received many compliments. So good I immediately ordered a second one.
A fantastic summer shirt, light and airy with a quality you don't see in other brands. I have several Bimini shirts and this year I am picking up some more because of the new colors. You will not find another shirt like this to beat the heat.
These shirts are great! They look great, are ultra light and extremely breathable. They seem well constructed and i expect them to last for some time!
High quality workmanship
Fits very well to sizing
Excellent service and communication
I will definitely buy from AR again
Bravo!
Very light and airy, yet of good construction and looks sharp. Will quickly become a staple for the warm weather days ahead. It may not be the answer to climate change, but they can help improve your comfort level.
The Bimini shirt from Atlantic Rancher is light and airy. You can feel the breeze through the material but the cotton fabric is strong, high quality and dosen't wrinkle like linen. I highly recommend this shirt for anyone trying to beat the heat.
The lightest tough cotton fabric I've ever felt. Doesn't get any better for summer.
Hi quality material and construction. Colours pop. looking forward to wearing them on our Mexico vacation and next summer.
Unique shirt that I love and of super high quality and great design. I couldn’t be happier. They come in different colors and patterns so very much looking forward to adding more to my collection.
Everything I’ve ordered has been great quality, and very expensive.
I am absolutely amazed at the quality of this shirt. The quality and feel of the fabric is incredible. I hardly even notice i am wearing it yet in no way does it seem flimsy or cheap. An excellent piece.
Got the bright orange Bimini. Very light, comfortable, very cool when it’s not. Very fine, feels like silk.
Light weight all cotton classic plaid that goes great with khaki pants or shorts. My go- to shirt for hot summer casual attire.
People Usually Ask
1. Where are your products made?
All of our shirts, pants, outerwear, sweater, belts and moccasins are made in Portugal, mostly in the same shops we've been working with for over 25 years. Our hand-sewn leather goods, hats and a few other items are made in America.
2. How would you describe the fit of your clothes?
Our fit is what we call contemporary, meaning they're not overly baggy or boxy, but have ample room and freedom of movement. Also, our outerwear is uninsulated, or very lightly insulated. It's cut with enough room to allow you to layer underneath, with a sweater, a vest or even a light down-filled jacket. For us, layering is always the way to go!
3. Will your shirts and pants shrink after washing?
Simple answer is no. All of our shirts and pants are pre-shrunk. At most you will experience a 2% shrink factor after washing and drying.
4. What is DryHandle®?
Dryhandle® is a 100% cotton, weatherproof fabric that we develop in 1995. Starting with 100% long-staple Egyptian cotton the thread is very tightly woven resulting in a fabric so dense that it's thornproof and, even at this stage, surpasses the U.S. government test for rainwear. The fabric is then impregnated through the proprietary DryHandle® process which irreversibly transforms the cotton fibers themselves to make them inherently water-resistant and stain-resistant. Unlike oiled or waxed cotton fabrics, DryHandle® is extremely lightweight, has no odor, won't stain other clothing or upholstery and resists stains from hard use and long wear. Despite being water-resistant, the weave contains millions of microscopic pores that vent moisture, making DryHandle® garments exceptionally breathable and comfortable to wear.
5. How long does delivery usually take?
Orders received by 2pm PST are usually shipped the same day. In most cases we ship via USPS Priority Package, and orders to the East Coast typically arrive in 4 days or less. West of The Mississippi orders arrive in 2-3 days.
6. How do i reach the founder of the company?
Easy! You can email him (that would be me, Engle) at engle@atlanticrancher.com or you can call me at 206-919-0943. I am around most of the time, but i miss you, I'll get back to you as soon as I can.
7. If an item is out of stock will you let me when it's available again?
We maintain an active "wait list." So when you send a message asking to be notified when the item, color and size becomes available, we actually do something worthwhile with your request. We catalog your request and email you once the item becomes available again.
8. Who writes your copy and are the stories true?
The answer to the first part of this question is: me, Engle Saez, founder of the company. For part #2...there's an old adage that applies here: "you can't make this shit up." And I will just say that the stories I tell are as true as I can make them and as accurate as my memory allows. That's a true story...
9: Where did the name Atlantic Rancher come from?
The origins of our company's name is a long story, one will share in blog post at some point. But for now, all should know that we are forever grateful to Susan Turner for her original and very creative idea.
10: How do I return or exchange a item?
