Look Good Feel Good!!!
Size: XX-Large Big Tall, Color: Lilac
The shirt is verey stylish the price point is good quality is good. Ordered a size down the first time because i tried using size chart. My opinion if you normally wear a certain size in another brand you like, consider ordering that size. I say this because I ordered down one size from my normal King Size brand and had to return. New one fits perfect recieved lots of compliments on the color. So I recommend this brand and this shirt for those of us who may be on the BIG size and enjoy a little room in their fit

Color and size were great, but it came with some wrinkles and creases.
Size: 5X-Large Big Tall, Color: Olive Green
The color (olive green) and size were perfect. The shirt is comfortable, and i did not see any bad stiching. The fabric is a synthetic and it came with a bunch of wrinkles and creases. I'm hoping with several wears and washings that the initial wrinkles will smooth out -- if that happens, then I'll update this review.
