Review on πŸ‘” Men's Shirts with Fitted Collar by Van Heusen, made with Poplin fabric by Michael Mendoza

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Special sizing for dress shirts

I have other Van Heusen fitted shirts that I bought in the store that are softer and allow more shoulder room. I originally bought this shirt in a size 16 1/2 but had to return it as it was too tight. Then I ordered 17 thinking it would fit better. A size 17 doesn't offer more room than a size 16 1/2. The shoulders are narrow, the chest is slightly larger, the length is longer, the waist is slightly larger than we would like. The shirt should narrow as it goes down, but it seems to get wider. I go to the gym and I have large breasts with a thin waist. I have a fitted Van Heusen shirt, size 16, which fits me better than the 16 1/2 I ordered from Revain. I have a size 17 that I bought in the store and it fits significantly more than the size 17 I ordered from Revain. In my opinion, the shirts sold on Amazon are not standardized. Maybe they were made for another region. The material feels different than my other Van Heusen shirts so I doubt they are fake. Amazon shirts are stiffer and less comfortable. I am dissatisfied with this purchase. I think if I wasn't muscular the shirt would fit me perfectly. Because of my muscular build, I tend to buy tight shirts rather than fitted ones.
