Overall this is a great shirt. Though, not as great as the Calvin Kline version I can no longer find. I've bought several in different colors over the last year and as yet, have not had one come apart on me though I feel a few have shrunk. I really like that they don't thread a plastic tag through the product and instead opt for a clip akin to a safety pin. There are several tags attached to this pin, they do not contain washing instructions despite having plenty of places to print that information. Printed on the inside of the shirt there are what appear to be washing symbols. I've had several young people try to explain these symbols to me but their expressive interpretive dances have failed to successfully communicate the proper instructions. On the upside, they seem to like to touch the shirt and while doing so they give way to soft cooing and purring noises that soon have fingers pulling and tugging to remove all clothing. Though I've had no complaints personally, I would very much like these shirts to be thicker and I would pay more for a thicker version. In the meantime, I've emailed the archeological department of the local university in hopes of bringing these symbols to an egyptologist who caught my fancy when I stumbled into their lecture by accident. My hope is that their knowledge of ancient hieroglyphics can shed some light on the symbols of my shirt and I would be interested to know if these shirts are as soft as Egyptian cotton. Fortunately, there appear to be a great number of strangers happy to do my laundry, but they can be quite aggressive about it, thus leading to my aforementioned stumbling.This is a must buyThis shirt would work if I was in amazing shape and wanted something skin tight to do a Perpetual Gun Show™️, but neither of those are the case.It is fairly soft, but not amazingly so.As for sizing, I got the size I usually wear, and it fits, but it is a skin tight fit. I am not currently.in amazing shape, so the tight fit is both unflattering and a bit uncomfortable as im used to shirts that are a bit loose.Very soft, very well made. Even the tags are not run-of the-mill. I'd say, medium weight material. I'm giving it four stars only because it's tad bigger than other small-size shirts I own.Hard to find a good quality xs shirt that fits so good. Very soft streachy quality. If your a guy in shape this will show off your muscles handsomely! But if you have a belly it will also make it poke out lol. Please bring back the out of stock colors in xs. Disappointed that most of xs colors are out of stock!I have been wearing Cotton/Spandex T's for the last several years. Every time I settle on a new brand, they become hard to find; especially with a cut that fits me. These are cut to fit my frame as I like, although it would be nice if they had a bit more length. That said, it's very close to what I would like. I am 5'10", 190 lbsShoulders: 50"Chest: 43"Waist: 36"Biceps: 15"I am 55 years old, so I have to fight the urge to wear a tight shirt giving the appearance of an old-man trying to wear a younger man's clothes. I started with a large, which is what I wear in a standard, all-cotton T (although they become tight over time, with shrinkage) I went up to the XL and I like the fit, but I think it may shrink and, as mentioned, I am also interested in a slightly longer version, so I have now ordered an XXL. Once I wash/dry them a few times, I will see how much they shrink so I can decide what size will be best to buy in the future.Update: Sept 28, 2020 - the XL has tightened with the laundering, but just a bit. The XXL is now more appealing, especially if I am wearing as just a T, and not an undershirt. They are all holding up well. A couple of special notes...I have purchase both white and black. I am not sure that both colors are shrinking the same amount, it seems like the white may shrink a touch more than the black. I where the black more, so the change is likely due to nu.ber of launderings. Also, the white color looks great but held up against my white socks, I do notice the Tees are a bit off-white more toward a grayish hue. They seem fine with my white dress shirts....so maybe I should get my eyes checked. Hope this helps someone.OK shirt . If you are in between sizes, definitely order the larger. I'd say runs close to one size smaller than "old fashioned" t-shirts (ie those of a year or two ago . . ). Sleeves are extremely short - about half way between elbow and shoulder, but again I guess this is the new style.I was hoping for a super soft cozy pj shirt. This is soft but not really cozy. It’s got one shape and it doesn’t really want to be any other shape. Which is mostly fine. It’s uncomfortable in the armpits. But that could’ve be because this shirt was a bit smaller than I was expecting. I’m not unhappy enough to return it but it’s not my favorite and will probably not get used very often then thrown away. Disappointed, which it were something it isn’t. Not sure why you would want a shirt out of this rather stiff unyielding fabric. It’s definitely not a shirt for pjs
