Fit and Sizing

Pros:

  • "This one has an almost tailored fit. It is great."
  • "Loved the thickness of the cotton and the fit; loose but not baggy."
  • "I'm a 2XL all day long and this XL fits very nicely without being tight anywhere."
  • "I like a nice loose fit for my shirts and this is very comfortable."
  • "Very true to color, have not washed yet but will according to instructions on tag. My husband is 5'5, 200-210 lbs and an XL fit him extremely well."
  • "This XL fits very nicely without being tight anywhere."
  • "Finally found a polo shirt my husband likes for a reasonable price! The fit was as expected."

Cons:

  • "These shirts have a navy blue band inside the collar... To put these through a wash cycle, you may as well throw them in the trash."
  • "All three white shirts have now shrunk so much that they barely fall below my belt line, and they haven't kept their shape."
  • "The material is slightly see-through."
  • "Otherwise decent fabric and feel, just huge."
  • "Also it was a little too large. Not slim fitting as I thought."
  • "After the first washing, I noticed significant shrinkage."
  • "The shirts fit my husband great when we received them. I washed them so he could wear to work and they shrunk like two sizes."

Material Quality

Pros:

  • "Colors are bright especially the white."
  • "Very affordable and good quality."
  • "The quality is very nice."
  • "Good quality construction and fit. Certainly on par or above certain brick-and mortar stores for the price."
  • "Outstanding quality, both the fabric and workmanship."
  • "They hold up well and last through days of hard work."
  • "Because of how affordable this shirt is I was pleasantly surprised on the quality of this shirt."

Cons:

  • "The material is thin, which is just what it is."
  • "the material is slightly see-through."
  • "The material is cheaper cotton so it attracts hair and fuzz all day long."
  • "The cheap-o Amazon versions I bought didn't even last a summer."
  • "The shirts are made fairly well, but they don’t launder well."
  • "This fabric they used is just awful and already fading after maybe 3 washes??"
  • "These shirts look nice until you wash them. Washing roughens the fabric and the color loses its consistency."

Color and Appearance

Pros:

  • "I love this charcoal color, shown in the picture."
  • "The black is good solid black that does not look faded like some other brands I have tried."
  • "The Navy Blue is a deep rich color closer to a Kansas City Royals blue and the Army Green is a deep jewel tone, not Army fatigue green."
  • "The color is vibrant and beautiful! It washed great!"
  • "The fabric isn't shiny which is exactly what I wanted."
  • "Colour wise it is a brilliant white and no logos to worry about."
  • "The white shirts are a bright white while the pictured shirt is more of a wheat colored polo."
