★★★★☆
Good basic shirt after the neccessary first wash
I have an unfortunate case of the dreaded "dress code" at work so of course I pick the least dressy option possible: polos. After wearing them every day it's nice to see that Amazon has come out with their own version. That usually means a good value and no frills which is exactly what I want in a shirt. My usual complaints with polos wasn't an issue here as it was both long enough to tuck in without pulling out all day and has sleeves that went more than two inches down my arm. I'm around an average (IT nerd) build and this shirt isn't too form fitting but it doesn't billow around me either; just sits comfortable whether walking or sitting. The arms are a reasonable length that doesn't ride up my arms unlike many other brands. You'd think a shirt is a shirt but there are some polos in my closet because they just have odd dimensions for their stated size. Good comfort too; material was fairly soft but I certainly wouldn't call it silky. Just the way I like it. There's also the color to consider and while I'm not a pastel/robin's egg blue kinda guy it's just dark enough that it doesn't bother me. Honestly the only thing I didn't like about it was that it had an odd smell out of the package. A sort of new chemically smell that I assume was from the dyes or cleaning products used at the factory. In any case it was fine after a wash and I've happily worn it once each of the last two weeks. Just needed a first wash. This polo does exactly what I want it to which is be a shirt that I don't think about all day because it's just comfortable. Can't ask for more.
