Review on Nautica Boys' Clothing: Poplin Dress Shirt - Stylish and Sleek! by Michael Jennings

Revainrating 4 out of 5

It was an excellent quality shirt with a tie pin

This was an excellent quality shirt with a tie pin. The shirt and tie are great and were bought to wear with khakis for my son's 5th grade graduation. Unfortunately the shirt was too big for him. We bought a size 14 which is admittedly the high end of my son's clothing range. He carries 12-14 but has been leaning closer to the 14 end lately. He has a very long waist and I wanted him to be able to raise his arms above his head without showing his stomach to the world. He also wanted to be able to roll his sleeves up to his elbows because he likes it, and besides, we live in Texas so it's hot here. However, the shirt was too big for him. I would say it was more like I thought he would wear a 16 or maybe even an 18. The sleeves were so big that we rolled them up to our elbows and they were loose and dangling. The hem of the shirt reached almost to the knees. His 16-year-old sister tried the shirt on and it fit her well in the middle, with some room to move - she is a size 2 for juniors. Only the sleeves were a bit short for her. It's a great shirt, so we'll keep it for him until it fits. Just a bit disappointing that it was sooooo much more than expected.

Pros
  • No clasp
Cons
  • Expensive
