Polo shirts are worth the price

In general, I don't think shirts are very durable, so I don't like to spend too much money. Cotton Tactical Shirt is expensive but I think it's worth it. This is my second short sleeve tactical shirt. I would still have the first one if I hadn't run a felt-tip pen through my underwear. I like how the shirt keeps the creases. All pockets are good including a secret pocket. I don't use any of them. The reviewer who said to buy shirts in small sizes was right. I bought the medium instead of theโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Solid construction
Cons
  • Disappears

Cotton. 100%! in Shirts

Nice shirt, incredibly thick material. But that too is 100% cotton - and all the disappointments and worries that result (I messed up the order - it's my own fault). I have several of these shirts in a polyester/cotton blend. The polyester blend wins by far; does not wrinkle, does not iron, washes out dirt, easy to clean, dries quickly. These shirts (and pants) are expensive, so make sure you buy the material that best suits your needs in the long run (for example, I would never take a cottonโ€ฆ

and look fresh all day like 5

I have been wearing 5.11 clothing for many years, both at work and in my free time. They always hold up well. I'm a big fan of heavily starched cotton, these shirts take starch well and stay fresh all day as do the 5.11 pants. The document pouches are good for carrying a cell phone or even a small light pistol. They fit great, the colors last a long time and go perfectly with pants. I have pants, shirts, 4 in 1 coats and 5.11 boots. Everything I have ever tasted from this brand has been great.

Pros
  • Availability
Cons
  • A number of factors

Disappointment Good for outdoors

Runs too big I've worn a size XL all my adult life. Fits like XXL. The sleeves were for XXXL. It looked very disproportionate. The material is very very thick. It is similar in thickness to a short-sleeved cotton jacket. It's almost comical how bad it fit and felt. Returned. Stick with the default up button.

Pros
  • New to my collection
Cons
  • Don't really like it, everything is fine

Pretty and sturdy but tough

I love this shirt but be aware it's heavy. Large Velcro chest pockets give a more industrial feel. The sizing seems true to size but the collar seems to sit high, like under the chin. It would also make a great shirt for New England gardening/sprint fishing!

Pros
  • Best in niche
Cons
  • Weak set

5.11=Products of the highest quality.

This is another excellent product from 5.11. However, a word of wisdom before ordering your size. If you wear XL you need size L. If you wear size L you need size M etc. I have previously bought a long sleeve version of this shirt and I liked it so much that I ordered all the same colors Spring/Summer short sleeve version. Let me just say that the bright saturated colors, the thickness of the material and the stitching make this shirt super high quality. Yes, this product is more expensive than

Pros
  • Brilliantly done
Cons
  • Some flaws

Best in class cycling shirt.

I have 5-6 of these shirts, long sleeve and short sleeve. I originally bought one for travel (great pocket system) but found it so comfortable that I wear it whenever I find an excuse for a relaxed lifestyle (and still very neat). Now I use them as a gift for good friends who like to travel. Everyone loves these shirts.

Pros
  • Trial for one year
Cons
  • Expensive

These 5.11 cotton tactical shirts are crafted like tanks. When you first buy them it takes weeks/months(!) for the canvas to soften and from then on and for years to come you have a strong and durable uniform shirt that will stand up to anything. I've had other brand shirts ripped after a few months while 5.11 years disappear year after year. 4 or more years. Mathematics will tell the story. The color sage is a muted green that pairs well with khaki or black and is almost gray in some lightingโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Fingers crossed
Cons
  • Many

Go for size. Don't think it's big.

This is my first tactical shirt 5.11. This is a durable 100% cotton material and you can tell it will last forever. It will most likely lose some of its blackness after 1000 washes before wearing out. T-shirts like this are simply not made anywhere else. Unlike other reviewers here, I genuinely believe this shirt is true to size. I have a 44R suit with a small stomach and I wear large in 90% of my shirts. I was bothered by reviewers saying they were large so I ordered medium. Guess what? Thisโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Useful beyond its intended purpose
Cons
  • Too long to wait
