The shirt came as expected and shown in the picture, however there was a very distinct smell to it. I looked at the care label and its a normal wash with like colors. The smell of it though kind of freaked me out that the color of the shirt might bleed or even possibly the applique would come off. I washed the item separately on the settings on the label. After two washes the smell went away and now I follow the label and wash it normally with other clothing. Nothing for me faded or came off, the smell was just very off-putting to the item, thankfully that's gone.
