Review on 5.11 Tactical Short Sleeve Professional XL Men's Clothing by Samuel Bowen

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great shirt - gets lots of compliments.

Five stars with few exceptions. I wasn't expecting to see this shirt. I thought it was the lighter weight fabric shown in the first photo. I specifically wanted this version because I think it looks better. But apparently it's the same model number. And if you look closely, all the other photos, except for the first one, are actually the shirt I got. I would return it if I had more time and didn't need it right away. However, I suspect this must be a newer version of my old shirts that I have bought in the past and hopefully the photo was an honest oversight on the part of the seller. Because they look damn similar in a tiny photo. However, this fabric looks less clean/tidy/trendy. It doesn't drape very nicely. It's more like a regular polo. As on the thicker side. Not necessarily sloppy in and of itself - it's just a regular polo. But since this is a work polo, I think it makes perfect sense that it looks like a polo. And it will probably take longer. It's just not what I wanted. Honestly, I'm not a big fan of 5.11. Because I think a lot of these things are expensive but cheaply made and intended for those who want to be tough guys, but that's just my opinion. However, I really like these special shirts. And this version is great too. I love the shoulder pen pocket on these shirts. I get lots of compliments and questions about the brand and where I bought it. I look for lighter ones when I can find them.
