    Tobus:

    The Cabela's safari shirts are not vented, and are a 65/35 poly/cotton blend, but they are a good deal more breathable and comfortable than you'd think. (Full disclosure: I ALWAYS wear a white cotton undershirt with these!) The shirt I sometimes wear that you're thinking of is a 5.11 tactical shirt that I purchased some years ago, as seen in another "blast from the past" photo, this one from Salado (look at those long garter ties! YIKES!):



    The cotton 5.11 shirt is quite a bit heavier, and holds up pretty well if sufficiently ironed (though the map pockets/extra velcro make it a bit more challenging to iron), though perhaps not as well as the Cabela's shirt, which are very easy to iron and stay sharp looking no matter what. I have one 5.11, but a closet full of the Cabela's in various shades.

    Looks like the current version of the 5.11 can be found here:
