Good shirt, but not perfect
I have bought three of these shirts. They fit well, look good, good value for the price, don't wrinkle easily. The fabric is VERY heavy and does not breathe well, so they are better suited for winter than summer wear. The placket tends to bunch up when you're seated, so wearing an undershirt can be helpful.
The only thing I'd change about it is the fastener on top would be better as a standard button, or be fastened closer to the shirt. When worn buttoned-up, there's enough room between the two halves of the shirt that one side folds down and there's an unnecessary collar gap that doesn't look great. When worn unbuttoned, the fastener dangles (which again, doesn't look great). The shirt also doesn't have collar stays, so the collar can roll up.

Looks good but is heavy, not like a traditional long sleeve shirt, I always use long sleeve shirts every day, but this one is heavy comparing with the other ones that I have

Favorite Shirt
Color: All White, Size: X-Large
Love these shirts! I like how sleek they look with hidden buttons and no pockets. I plan to order other colors. Great for travel because they wrinkle very little. Comfortable and true to size.
