Fit and Comfort

Pros:

  • "They fit well, 5’8 and 5’9."
  • "I’m 5’10 215 and the XLarge fit great. Roomy enough to hid my gut but doesn’t make me look like I’m drowning in it."
  • "It fits well, with a loose fit, and is easy to work out in."
  • "Hubby is 180, usually a size L and rarely an XL and L worked perfectly with these."
  • "At 220 lbs, an XL fit perfectly."
  • "They fit true to size and are very comfortable."
  • "The large size fits me perfectly. They are super comfortable. Very soft, but not clingy."

Cons:

  • "The only reason I deducted one star is because the material is pretty thin so the quality does lack somewhat compared to more expensive brands."
  • "It was ok for the purpose but the bottom of the shirt the thread was coming off, it seem like I was cutting loose thread the 2 days I used it at the water park."
  • "The colors of the shirts are a bit darker than they seem in the picture, so we ended up changing our mind on preferred color - the gray is too dark and didn't look right with his black swim shorts."
  • "Not worth it. Go with a non amazon brand on this one."
  • "This is a pretty basic shirt, but it comes at a great price. The only thing to be aware of is that it runs a little small."
  • "THIS SHIRT IS ENTIRELY TOO SMALL FOR a double XL. it's tight and uncomfortable and too short."
  • "The shirt is too large to be comfortable while swimming, and was much longer than most shirts."
