Got the Navy Blue version of this shirt. It's a slight shade darker than anticipated, but it looks great. The material is very soft and silky. Perhaps a little unbreathable, but pretty good for polyester. The design is ostentatious, but that's exactly what I wanted when I bought a shirt like this.Some reviews are saying the pattern won't hold up in the wash. Mine just came in, so I can't confirm or deny, but my first impression is really good. I'd be mindful to wash in cold water and air-dry it, just to be safe.
