Fit and Size

Pros:

  • "Fit is good and they are well made."
  • "I bought size M, fit is loose which is ok."
  • "The fit was as I hoped, the construction was solid with no assembly flaws."
  • "Every polo shirt I have bought from Amazon Essentials has fit completely as expected."
  • "Fits like the size it’s supposed to be."
  • "The fit is exactly as expected, and the quality of the material is great."
  • "At 5.8 and 175#, a size M fits perfectly."

Cons:

  • "However, I do find them uncomfortably hot and thick to wear."
  • "The first time I washed this shirt, it shrunk a ton, and lost all softness."
  • "I purchased one of these shirts in a medium size. However, when it came in, it was huge."
  • "Then I washed it. It became a little tiny polo shirt that might fit a 6 year old."
  • "I ordered one XL shirt and I'm 6' 230lbs. It fit perfectly before the wash and after one wash the length shrunk quite a bit and it became unstable."
  • "The shirt fit great when it arrived. After two washings, it has shrunk so much I can't wear it anymore."
  • "XXL - Perfect fit when brand new out of the package. I washed it once. Shrunk at least one whole size, is now unwearable."

Quality and Durability

Pros:

  • "These shirts look and feel great...at a fantastic price!"
  • "Why pay $50 + for one shirt, when you can get 3 for the price of 1, at the exact same quality!"
  • "The stitching holds up, the color is still as vibrant."
  • "The fabric is thick. Quality stitching."
  • "The quality seems really good!"
  • "For this quality at this price it will not be such a big deal to replace them as needed."
  • "High quality product. I bought just about all the colors in a xl, and it fits pretty nicely. I've washed them about 3 or 4 times and they haven't shrunk or faded."

Cons:

  • "The fabric isn't quite as soft as some brands and it wrinkles more easily."
  • "Material is too thin. You can almost see through it."
  • "Purchased this for my husband to wear to work, and it was okay until I washed it. After the wash, it looks very worn."
  • "These are after just a few weeks and two or three washings nearly of yard work status."
  • "The fabric is thin and wrinkles at the slightest touch."
  • "The fabric has a terrible odor."
  • "The color was very nice but the fabric quality is poor. Because of the poor fabric quality the shirt wrinkled severely after washing and straight out of the dryer."

Value for Money

Pros:

  • "Why pay $50 + for one shirt, when you can get 3 for the price of 1, at the exact same quality!"
  • "All in all, these shirts go head to head with others costing several times more."
  • "This was really nice when it came in and I'm amazed considering it was all of $12!!"
  • "For this quality at this price it will not be such a big deal to replace them as needed."
  • "Shirts are as advertised, and great value for the money."
  • "Excellent quality polo shirt for $17!! Equal in quality, looks, and durability to name brand shirts I have purchased for $35, $55, and $70."
  • "The quality of Amazon Essentials polo shirts are on par with top brands."

Cons:

  • "It was ill fitting even then but I guess you get what you pay for after all."
  • "You get what you pay for and these shirts are crap!"
  • "Cheap Chinese garbage!"
  • "Very disappointing decline in quality."
  • "Looks good when they arrive but after washing them a couple times you can tell the quality is awful."
  • "Not a high quality shirt. I purchased two in two different colors. One I’ve worn one 4-5 times and have decided to get rid of it."
  • "The shirt is ok for the price however I washed all 3 I bought in cold water and they still shrunk lengthwise so much so that they are unwearable."
