Review on Maroon Russell Athletic Essential Men's Clothing and Active Sleeve by John Floyd

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Thinner than expected but still perfect for everyday wear.

I bought a pair of these to replace the black ones (same manufacturer). I've had them for 20 years now and although they are a bit thinner they are still perfect for everyday wear. This is a mid-weight t-shirt material, but it looks great with jeans or under a flannel shirt. I bought two of these in XL sizes (grey and burgundy) and they were too wide at the shoulders (I'm 5ft 10", 165lbs), but I liked the feel so much that I bought a double pair of the Plus ordered size. The plus size is therefore perfect for dressing up and is more figure-hugging. , while XLs are great for lounging OR adding a second layer to things. Overall I am very happy with the quality of these items and have washed them all 4 times since purchase with no sign of shrinkage, fading or any other imperfections. They feel great and look great. Finally, I appreciate that the neck opening is a bit loose and doesn't require stretching for comfort. Finally, I like that the cuffs have enough stretch to be pulled up. and they stay there without falling. These are the winners in my wardrobe for everyday use and to wear under sweatshirts.

Pros
  • Anti odor helps keep fabric fresh
Cons
