The 1912 Field Flannel shirt is praised for its quality, softness, and warmth, with some customers describing it as their most comfortable shirt. However, a number of customers were disappointed with the thin, cheesecloth-like material and issues with the fit, such as inaccurate sizing and a baggier than expected appearance. Some also experienced durability problems, including shrinking and loose seams after washing. Despite these criticisms, many customers remained satisfied with the product and would purchase or recommend it.
COMFORTABLE FIT AND CLASSY NICE COLOR AND GREAT EVERYDAY USE

Where is quality control?
Weight: 120-130 lbs
Height: 5'10"
Size Purchased: Medium
Fit: Too large
Used for: Casual or Every Day
Shirt seems well-made BUT: too big overall, especially the sleeves which hang down to my finger nails!
On its way back. But there is no packing/return slip in the package. Now

I had bought shirts like this at the size I bought. But this one was too tight. I sent it back about 2 weeks ago and have still not received the replacement.
