Van Heusen Men's Dress Shirt Slim Fit Flex Collar Stretch Solid

Comment

I am short and skinny. If Mick Jagger and Dr. Ruth ever had a kid together, Id be it. I like my dress shirts to be slim fit and form fitting so that when I strut, I feel good about myself (sure I look like a dork, but I feel awesome). That said, a sad consequence of my desire for a "toight like a tiger" fit has always been the risk of popping a button while tying my tie- this shirt eliminates that risk. Furthermore, the price is comparable with other slim fit shirts of the same quality. For the last 5 or 6 years, I have only worn (black/white) slim fit dress shirts by J Ferrar (sold by JCP- two for $40). However, when their prices went up to what these Van Heusen shirts are selling for on Amazon, I decided to give these a shot. At first glance, quality and fit seem to be the same. I was worried that these might not fit as well, but they fit just as nice, even before washing/drying. Also, I do not foresee shirt length to be a problem. As far as thinness goes, I have never worn a white dress shirt that did not require a white t-shirt underneath. No ones here for a light show; wear a t-shirt. Again, these arent any more/less see through than my white J Ferrar shirts. If anything changes, I will update my review. For now, Ive got to go work on my sweet moves. UPDATE: after a few weeks of use, Ive determined I like the J Ferrar shirts from JCP a little bit better than these. The main reason is that the J Ferrar shirts come out of the dryer wrinkle free while these come out of the dryer close to wrinkle free. Still a good shirt for me, though. Peace.

A few things: 1)The shirt has the thinnest material that I’ve ever seen. I could see freckles through it. 2)The collar does not flex...at all...and the material has zero give. Which, sucks twice as bad because... 3) The shirt is smaller than the size stated. In summary, it was missing the “r” to make it a “shirt”.

I got the white shirt, but I cannot speak to the other colors. Reasons why Im returning: - You can see your nipples through the shirt. If you dont want to wear an undershirt its not for you. Imagine a presentation with everybody thinking about your nipples. No thanks, Ill spend more money on something thicker. -Collar doesnt actually stretch. Seems almost like false advertisement. Honestly it was marketed in a way that doesnt match the actual product. Maybe the center button has a little more room, but thats not a stretch as more a wider notch.

I was able to copy and paste the points below from another review because they are ALL 100% accurate. I am so sick of getting shirts that are transparent. You know what we need for all white shirts, a transparency scale, so that I can choose a shirt based on how transparent it is. A few things: 1)The shirt has the thinnest material that I’ve ever seen. I could see freckles through it. 2)The collar does not flex...at all...and the material has zero give. Which, sucks twice as bad because... 3) The shirt is smaller than the size stated.

NOT A FLEX COLLAR AS ADVERTISED! I received 3 yesterday and first thing I checked was the flex collar performance since that was why I bought them. There is no "flex" function whatsoever. The slit that the collar button goes through is a little wider so there is some room there but I do not understand how they can get a way with advertising these shirts as flexible.
