Nicely Made Shirt
Color: Blue 1, Size: Medium
Linen is always nice. This material does not easily wrinkle. The material is think but not see-through. It is not an athletic fit but fits well on my very buff son. The size is correct for what I normally order for him. The color is more pail than in the picture, but that's to be expected with linen. We have purchased 3 more colors.

A Perfect Shirt for a Wedding!
Color: White, Size: Large
Perfect, my son needed for a wedding, and there are just so many shirts, hard to know which one to choose. This shirt was it! It fit great, looked very nice, good quality. Very good for summer, it's not stiff and fabric is softer than an oxford. I did iron it out of the package since it was folded, and it ironed beautifully. Traveled in the car on a hanger with the suit jacket, wore next day to wedding. We got a size large, he's 5'8" and about 170 and it was good, and not gigantic like some large, the short sleeves were just right, there was enough length to tuck in. The collar was just right and buttoned for a tie. Once the dancing started and jackets came off, it survived well, and still looked great at the end of the night (tails out by then). Could not have done better at a Men's Warehouse for a lot more money.
