    Cons
    • money returned

    Fits perfectly! Great quality for the price!

    The product arrived a few days late, but still on time. It fit my son perfectly and was really good quality! We will order more from him!

    Pros
    • Bought for my son who wears a size 14.
    Cons
    • The color, texture and feel of the shirt was good but did not fit true to size. Size XL is more like a medium shirt for men.

    Nice shirts - my new review

    Nice shirts, hoped they were a little bigger, a little tighter on my husky grandson. But while they fit, move on to the next one.

    Pros
    • Just the right color
    Cons
    • This is a plain cotton shirt. Not a work shirt as expected.

    Revainrating 1 out of 5

    Not as advertised: my rating

    I don't think Russell did, or at least not the Russell I expected. See photos for different logos. It's definitely *not* high quality material, it feels like cotton. Save money and choose another shirt.

    Pros
    • I took it for my grandson, he liked it, I will order more.
    Cons
    • They were hard, small, spiky, and almost transparent. Despite the low price, I can't give it more than 2 stars.

    The ladies are happy too!

    I'm 5'3", weigh 114 pounds and I'm a WOMAN. I love love love buying shirts for boys because they are a lot cheaper than women's. This one fits me perfectly, and it comes in a wide range of colours. Just ordered another one! Perfect for going to the grocery store, working in the barn or mowing the lawn.

    Pros
    • It's ok, although I was expecting a thicker and whiter t-shirt.
    Cons
    • Bad material, bad fit

    Revainrating 1 out of 5

    Shirts are scratchy and cheaply made

    Not comfortable at all and very thin. With all the other good quality boys shirts for the price I wouldn't recommend it. My son found this shirt thin and scratchy. Maybe 20 years ago, parents had fewer options for children's clothing.

    Pros
    • My 10 year old son liked it, he said it's very comfortable and soft. He used it for a school play.
    Cons
    • Return due to lack of material

    Revainrating 5 out of 5

    Good material! in my opinion

    I bought this shirt for my 10 year old son. It was good material and durable. Fits as expected. I recommend buying this item.

    Pros
    • Light and comfortable
    Cons
    • Although it said "try before you buy", it will "shrink" the minute you put it on and wash it.

    Revainrating 5 out of 5

    The size for that particular color is way off.

    I sent this to my 7 year old cousin and although it says size 7 for boys, the shirt was hanging below his knees. I didn't send it back because the price was too low. The shirt is more suitable for an older age, maybe for teenagers.

    Pros
    • He likes lightness and softness.
    Cons
    • The name "Performance Cotton" might suggest that this shirt is suitable for sports. However, cotton isn't known for its moisture-wicking properties and may not be the best choice for high-intensity activities where sweat can be an issue.

    Twin grandchildren are the best in my rating

    I bought these for my 9 year old grandchildren as they were very small. They are worn all day and also with separate pajama bottoms. These shirts were soft and felt good. I'm just sad that the larger twin is outgrowing the XL. (He's a big kid!). They last forever so I have passed many (at least 12) to my sister's grandchildren.

    Pros
    • Fits as expected. It has been washed 3 times and is still in good condition.
    Cons
    • It fits my 7 year old grandson. I ordered big boys medium ?? The size is wrong!!!

    Revainrating 1 out of 5

    Poor quality in my rating

    Didn't arrive new (it was blurry) although it clearly was. After washing it got worse. After two washes it shrank, faded and became too fluffy to wear in public.

    Pros
    • My son needed a green t-shirt for school. Works well and without complaints. I had a hard time finding this color in stores.
    Cons
    • Demaciado biscuits. Pedí una Talla L y parecía una XS muy sencilla la tela. I have no desire

    Good quality! good for me

    Good quality, wasn't sure what to expect. Thicker than what I've seen at my local stores. The size corresponds, the son fits perfectly. I loved the first one I ordered that I ordered 3 more!

    Pros
    • Nice t-shirt for kids!
    Cons
    • Not comfortable. The material is too thoughtful and harsh

    Revainrating 1 out of 5

    Terrible product in my opinion

    The size wasn't right at all. Tiny. Ordered XL and looked average. The cotton is not of good quality, you could see through it. I returned them.

    Pros
    • Very thin or too soft
    Cons
    • Too small and definitely a shirt, not a shoe.

    Revainrating 5 out of 5

    Corresponds to the ordered size

    I ordered 10-12 and they fit just like that, even after washing. I've washed it twice already and the color hasn't faded. Good quality felt shirt.

    Pros
    • I bought several of these shirts for my teenage son. They are good quality, nice colors and good value for money.
    Cons
    • too heavy

    Revainrating 2 out of 5

    The topic is already out in some places

    Washed and worn once but the threads are already sticking out. I was very disappointed but I think my son will only wear it to bed and not to baseball. I will probably not buy this brand again.

    Pros
    • My 10 year old son loves this shirt. Fits him perfectly. I would fit right in
    Cons
    • Although the Russell Athletic Boys Big Performance Cotton Short Sleeve T-Shirt is available in a cardinal color, there may not be other color options to choose from. This can limit the choice of style for a child wearing a shirt.

    Revainrating 5 out of 5

    Good price - large selection

    Using them as a pajama top for my child (buy other brand pajamas/pants separately) they are very comfortable, great value for money and come in a variety of colours. Sewn with high quality, many washes, the seams did not unravel, the color did not fade. The younger loves them because they are comfortable and roomy. I like them because they don't break the bank and you can order them as a set or individually. He is tall for a 7 year old (4ft 5in tall) and tall boys fit him perfectly.

    Pros
    • Perfect in every way!
    Cons
    • Possible Shrinkage: As the shirt is made of cotton, there is a risk of shrinkage during washing. This can result in the shirt not fitting properly or losing its shape.

    The size table needs to be corrected!

    The shirt is made of quality material but the size is smaller than my son fits. I will buy it again but in a larger size. Whatever your size, go one size up!

    Pros
    • Does what it should
    Cons
    • They were boys' shirts, not men's shirts. Thanks Bob🙏

    Great t shirt fits me

    We love these t-shirts. Very light weight. Nice and soft material. I've bought two so far. I'm sure I will buy more in the future.

    Pros
    • We order these shirts and add our Cub Scout Pack number to them. Cool and comfortable in hot weather.
    Cons
    • Really light weight. The size is a little off (too small) and not as cool as the picture.

    Revainrating 5 out of 5

    great my rating

    I will definitely buy more. Fits, matches in size and color to his school uniform. It couldn't be better because he hates school uniform shirts with collars. He is autistic and has sensory issues. I bought a large one by the way, 10 x 12 size. Will be updated when worn out.

    Pros
    • Colors are great, soft material, my son loves them
    Cons
    • False advertising. Not athletic

    Revainrating 4 out of 5

    Excellent quality and price.

    My girls love. I bought for my twin girls. They were Mario and Luigi. The shirts were perfect and will continue to be worn.

    Pros
    • Best in Niche
    Cons
    • Updates

    One size smaller after one wash

    My son is 10 years old and usually wears an L. He is a medium height boy. Tried it on when it arrived and it fit perfectly. Washed once in cold water and he sat up to his full size. Seller charges $3.33 for returns. Don't worry, I won't be buying from this seller again.

    Pros
    • Certified
    Cons
    • Almost OK
