HORRIBLE QUALITY DECREASE- DO NOT BUY
I had been a very loyal customer of Russel Brands cotton shirts for quite some time. I would make special trips to Sam's Club just to buy a ton of these. It's been a while since I last saw them on Sams, so I decided to give it a try on Amazon. Man, Russel is now crap. DO NOT BUY THESE. The quality of these shirts went from an unsurpassed 10 to a very mediocre 3. Let me elaborate, the cotton is now very abrasive, the feeling you get from the cotton rags they sell in some stores to mop up crap. It says 100% cotton, but I would like to know cotton from where??? The seams are now very poorly made. They used to be very tight and smooth, densely threaded. now... just a thread every 3/16". I would never ever do any exercise or sleep in these, I'm certain id get chaffing. The cotton is very thin, and translucent.
Attached photos show the HUGE difference in weight between the same model/size shirts.383 grams vs 275 gramsthat is 30% less material!!! and the seams compared... And yes, they feel different!!!
Horrible product, shame on you Russell for doing this, I cannot believe how low you went to make a few bucks. And for that you're getting your crap back at your expense. Lost a customer, and yeah, you got 1 star just because there is no option for 0.
