Making a shirt from non SA material

[Africa Jones]

For use in Africa where weight restrictions are sometimes imposed for baggage allowance on safari transfers, (or indeed for other very hot climes), I would love to have an accurate pattern / colour shirt made from a moisture wicking quick drying type material, for handwashing in a basin and hang drying between uses - I'm wondering whether it would be worth doing, or whether it has been done previously and how much a shirt like this might cost.

It would be nice to have something that stands out from the usual safari shirt, has the classic IJ appearance but is eminently usable day after day.
