Review on Armani Exchange Basic Black Large by Levi Stewart

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good Length: Doesn't Shrink: Runs Small

First things first: I'm 6'1" with a 41" chest and a 31" waist, and the large fits me comfortably. I've been wearing t-shirts of this brand/model exclusively since 2015. When I bought my first three of these, I assumed it would be the same old principle of buying a t-shirt that looks good after the first wash and then starts to deteriorate. shrink or lose their shape; However, this never happened to them. I'm not a fan of t-shirts, but when I buy a t-shirt I want it to hold its shape, drape well, and have the hem comfortably about three inches below the waist. I've tried some of the world's best handmade mercerized blah blah Sea Island t-shirts from the most expensive brands just looking for a shirt that fits and holds up just as well as this basic $30 shirt. . These more expensive shirts usually look amazing until the first hand wash, at which point they get so short I look like I'm wearing a $5 Old Navy Special. you know the look This shirt has a slim fit and runs small. If you usually wear a medium size, buy a large one. It's easy to confuse skinny with not skinny and think that AX makes incompatible sizes. You may have noticed that many of the negative reviews on this shirt come from the reviewer simply buying the wrong size. In my experience these shirts do not shrink when hand or machine washed in cold water and will hold their shape as you air dry them.

Pros
  • Men's
Cons
  • Corduroy is shorter than others
