A "sleeping shirt" is sort of a cross of an undershirt and a pullover
sweater. It is long-sleeved with knit cuffs and a small, anorak-style
collar, and a zipper opening.  It usually hangs down about butt-level.

The idea is a shirt that is light, dries quickly and provides a bit of
warmth in "cool tropical nights".  It's very comfortable; I've worn 2
out...
