Fit and Comfort

  • "The fitting is perfect."

Cons:

  • "The sleeves are a little 'tight'..."
  • "This one is fine in length and waist but just a little bit snug in the shoulders."
  • "It also seemed to run quite small, especially the sleeves."
  • "The sleeve length was a little shorter than on other same-sized shirts that I've bought."
  • "The fit seemed a wee bit snug."
  • "The shoulders are just a little tight."

Quality and Durability

Pros:

  • "We were both impressed by the quality and weight of the Amazon Basic clothing though!"
  • "A real plus: a smartly designed 1 & 1/4 inch placket that doesn't (can't) do anything stupid when it's washed--lays wonderfully flat, right outta the dryer."
  • "The shirts are durable and stay soft."
  • "Well constructed shirt in a heavy, cozy flannel."
  • "The material is very soft and very well made."
  • "This flannel is substantial, very soft and comfortable."
  • "The material of the shirt is of good quality."

Cons:

  • "This was not at all comfortable and it was itchy near neck."
  • "The cotton wasn't as tightly woven and it actually shrunk quite a bit in the wash."
  • "This shirt just kinda sucks it’s really thin and the material just feels cheap."
  • "The fabric was much thinner and stitching crooked."
  • "I was a little disappointed in the overall quality of the shirt."
  • "Very thin material."
  • "The pattern was not consistent from the back of the shirt to the front."

Design and Style

Pros:

  • "Love the design and the fabric."
  • "A boutique provider of flannel shirts was out of stock so I tried these, wow, I love em! Look sharp, inexpensive, fit was pretty solid."
  • "He loves it & wears it all the time. He dresses it up & dresses it down."
  • "The colors are subtle and nice looking together and there is one breast pocket."
  • "These are nice. Fit really well, wash up nicely, good construction and bright colors."
  • "The design is so-so in that the color combination, in my opinion, is the best when you see it up close."
  • "Love the feel of the fabric love check patterns."

Cons:

  • "Comfortable, quality fabric, but there are some minor issues that need to be fixed such as loose ends of stitches, excessive labels."
  • "Love the design and the fabric. The fabrication and stitching, however, is rushed, connected threads between buttons, buttons on the verge of falling off, etc."
  • "The button opening at the very bottom was sown in horizontally, not vertically like the rest."
  • "Collars are too flimsy narrow and small/short."
  • "The cut wasn’t flattering and the pattern had stronger horizontal lines than vertical which was also not flattering."
  • "But after just 4 wears, the outer fabric has started ripping at the seams."
  • "The pattern was not consistent from the back of the shirt to the front."

Value for Money

Pros:

  • "Overall - guys or gals, I highly recommend these! And you can't beat the price."
  • "I am very impressed! I got them on sale for $13 each."
  • "At times the price drops down below $8 a shirt at which point it is an absolute steal."
  • "Hard to believe this shirt was under $20.00."
  • "Nice quality shirt for very reasonable price."
  • "Good quality and good price."
  • "The price is way cheaper though for basically the same quality."

Cons:

  • "Great look and feel out of box, but shrank a full size in first normal wash."
  • "I can only assume it would shrink even more if you followed the care instructions."
  • "For the price, its OK. I wouldn't go out of my way to purchase Amazon Essential clothing."
  • "I'll keep them but will never buy these for less than 10."
  • "The shirt color got dull after single wash and doesn’t look like a new shirt anymore."
  • "At $23.00 each I would look elsewhere as the price does not justify what you get."
  • "So far I'm not having much luck overall with Amazon basics and cannot recommend their brand."
