Okay, my wife and kids call me a cynic and "Mr. Negative". I admit, I always expect the worst because that way I'm never disappointed, and it feels so good when I'm occasionally wrong. This is one of those rare occasions when I couldn't be happier to have been proven wrong. This shirt is fantastic! It feels so light and airy against your skin you hardly know it is there. Holding a single layer up to the window you can see through it, but it is not sheer when you put it on. The fit is wonderful. It is amazing how it can be stretchy but not clingy. Yes, I have a bit of a gut these days but it doesn't accentuate the fact. On the other hand, if I still had an athletic build it would fit equally well while gently hugging my ripped pecs and biceps (ah, those were the days).
I am 6 ft. 1 in., 230 lbs. wearing an XL these days in most things, occasionally still getting into a L in some jackets and cotton polos. The sizing chart seems to be right on. The XL fits me well if maybe a little on the loose side. A L would definitely fit, but only if I wanted to show off my formerly ripped pecs and biceps. The navy blue color shown in the picture is also an exact match for the one I received.
I cannot stress enough how great this shirt is. I am buying more.
