Review on KUYIGO Mens Long Sleeve Henleys T-Shirts Buttons Placket Plain Cotton Shirts by Mufti Capers

Revainrating 5 out of 5

These have become my most favourite shirts!

I **LOVE** these shirts.First off, the material is amazing and very high quality. It has spandex in it, which makes the shirt stretchy. The cotton/spandex mix also gives the material an oddly cooler feel to it than traditional cotton/poly mixes. It almost feels like a jersey, with a more "slippery" texture to it that kind of makes the shirt "glide" across my body when I have it on, if that makes any sense. Combined with the cooling effect, it is amazingly comfortable. I throw on one of my older cotton or cotton/poly shirts, and I can feel a HUGE difference. These Kuyigo shirts are by far, a hundred times more comfortable on the skin.Around the same time I also bought some Buttercloth brand shirts, which are known for having mint fibres sewn in together with the cotton/rayon mix. That does make the shirts a lot more cool on the skin, as claimed. But they are also literally 3-6 times more expensive than the Kuyigo shirts, which feel similar to the Buttercloth. My point - the Kuyigo shirts feel premium, and are just as comfortable as high-end shirts, for a fraction of the cost.Second, the styling is beautiful. It has a type of v-neck collar, which is very nice. I also love the accent on the end of the sleeves. I personally think they add a lot of elegance to the shirt.And thirdly, the fit is just perfect for me. I'm 5'7", 142 pounds, albeit carrying a slight pooch in the midsection, which the shirt thankfully does not accentuate (it's not a slim fit/ muscle shirt). But hey, I'm working on getting rid of it ;-) . I also personally love that the sleeves are SHORT. I hate it when short sleeves are long, and almost reach down to the elbow. They're called SHORT sleeves for a reason. they are SUPPOSED to be short (I don't understand this criticism about short sleeves being "too" short, which is silly, like complaining that a knife is sharp). The end of the sleeves hit right at the middle of the biceps for me. I mean come on, if you work out, you want to show off the guns, no? The length of the shirt is perfect for my height, too - not too long, and not too short. When I raise my arms up, the shirt doesn't go to my navel, like some of my other shirts. When my arms are down by my side, the shirt reaches down to my hips, which is just right.So overall, with the incredible cool touch and smooth texture, elegant styling, and great fit, these Kuyigo v-neck henleys with accents on the sleeves have become my absolute favourite shirts. For sure they are the best in my wardrobe. I already bought every single colour available in short sleeve, except the white, because I'm not fond of white shirts. Ignore the negative reviews.seriously. You will be hard pressed to find shirts with more comfortable material. I've tried them all, including premium shirts that are up to over a hundred dollars each, and these Kuyigo shirts are comparable while being much more affordable. I've become a huge fan of the brand!

Pros
  • The shirt is nice but it runs a little tight and the buttons are ornamental only.
Cons
  • Prone to pilling and snagging
