Review on 5.11 Tactical Short Sleeve Professional XL Men's Clothing by Hank Mistretta

Revainrating 5 out of 5

See-through and ribbed is no fun

Buying a 5.11 shirt seemed like an easy task. I've worn various pieces from them for years and still wear some that are >10 years old. However, this won't be worn for more than the 30 seconds it takes to realize you can see through. I wear a thin white tank top underneath all my shirts and you can still see through this shirt. A sunny day and a light breeze could quickly transform this "professional" t-shirt into an NC-17 show that wouldn't earn me extra dollar bills on my double shot. The collar is ribbed, which I didn't find more comfortable, but rather made it cheaper. The cut was exactly as I expected and fitted very well; Hit the mark with another 5.11 polo I bought so it got an extra star. Otherwise, I don't recommend this shirt unless you're wearing it over a heavy sweater, under another shirt that you can't take off, or if your job requires fully visible nipples.

Pros
  • Cool
Cons
  • No effect
