Very Long Sleeves, Not Cottony Enough
I don't know why my images don't load right side up anymore. I am 5' 9" 145lbs, 37, 31, 38 as I write this, and the medium fits well as usual. I am always on the hunt for the perfect long sleeve tee, and this isn't it, but it's great for $11. I ordered more colors, but after wearing this one for the day I think I'll return them. I want to see if Woolworth's long sleeve tees are the ones I'm searching for. Patty Boutik has gloriously long sleeves, but her tops tend to be low cut with tight sleeves.
Pros:
THE SLEEVES ARE LONG ENOUGH.
The burgundy is a lovely deep purple hue just like on the model.
The torso is also long enough.
Neckline is comfy, not too high, not too low: I don't have to worry about bending over to chase kids and revealing anything.
Cons:
The material isn't cottony enough. I felt my pits get moist when I was moving around a lot earlier.
The sleeves could be looser at the bottom, but maybe they'll stretch a bit. They're also a little snugger over all than I prefer, but not awful.
The shirt does sort of cling to my meager chest. It doesn't form to my body quite the way I like. Like cotton. sigh.
It's a nice shirt, but it's not THE shirt.
UPDATE:
I changed my review to 2 stars after stocking up on Eddie Bauer, Carhartt, and Woolrich long sleeve tees. They're all more cottony and move with my body better. This shirt sort of got caught on my bustline and I ended up adjusting often throughout the day.
