Excellent quality best in rashguards

Thick fabric I like looks very high quality. Fits very snugly like the swimsuit I bought. So i thick chart size is correct.

Pros
  • Pleasing
Cons
  • boring packaging

Terrible smell and incredibly small

I couldn't even drape it over my shoulders to try and get my head through. I usually wear an L or M and this L was insanely small. Order 2 sizes larger. Also very smelly from the packaging. I'm not sure if it will go away after washing.

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • I really don't like it, everything is fine

Turns out VERY small, even if you follow the size chart.

Very small volume. Even like a second skin. My husband is 5ft 6in and 145lbs. I followed the size chart and bought him a size small. He could barely squeeze into it. One day he couldn't move his arms and said he was having trouble breathing. I plan to try bogger size. I'm not sure whether to try Medium or Large.

Pros
  • Easy installation
Cons
  • Some problems

Looks best for scuba diving and snorkeling

I use this to keep warm when diving in cold springs in Florida. It keeps me warm and relieves the shock when my chest hits the cold water. Good durable material. My only complaints are that I'm skinny but muscular and my arms are a bit tight so I have to bend them. Also, it should work well for any normal body type.

Pros
  • Best in niche
Cons
  • Protection

Someone said they fit like a t-shirt

Haven't used this t-shirt yet but wanted to warn customers it doesn't fit. Someone said they fit like a t-shirt. You are not. I usually wear a small sports shirt and a t-shirt. I even have GAP Xtra Smalls. I ordered the medium and it was very tight, felt like it was suffocating me. Exchanged for Big which is still tight but will do. The shirt looks high quality.

Pros
  • Pretty packaging
Cons
  • I vaguely remember

What about the fit?

Most people mentioned or worried about being true to size. It should fit like a second skin, without play, which is why it is an elastic material. Example: I am a 5"9" 170lbs man. Medium build (no beer belly) I bought the medium and it fits very snugly. At first I thought it was too tight, but remember, once you get in the water you won't feel it. I bought the plus Mares Medium, both fit the same and are of the same quality. Next time I'll buy a big one to see if it's still tight or not.

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Crumpled

I bought this for Krav Maga which starts with a hot sweaty workout. Another student recommended this shirt for exercise because it wicks sweat well and you don't have to worry about carpet rash. Pay attention to the size. I imagine these shirts would be like a sausage casing if used correctly. I usually wear L but ordered 2XL. It fits great. It's a little tight but I'm happy with the fit. The shirt itself makes a well-made impression. There is a slight smell out of the packaging but it is not…

Pros
  • Delivery was very fast
Cons
  • unreliable
