ANTARCTICA Mens Combat Shirt

Best shirt feels comfortable

Good quality, it feels nice to wear. Its a little bit small for its size but not too crazy, my 3XL fit like a 2XL but still fit, might only be an issue for people with a gut though, the arms and length were true to size.

I understood when purchasing that many of these types of shirts originate in China, and will therefore suffer in quality when compared to, say, 5.11 tactical or other brands. Such is the sacrifice you make when compromising quality for your budget.Pro's: I like the materials used in this shirt. Its a soft, thick material for the body, though not so thick you'll die of heatstroke. The sleeves aren't stiff and its overall comfortable. I'm an even 6 feet tall, consistently 185 lbs, I went with a size Large (2xl tag iirc) and it fits very well under my modular vest and will fit even better under my plate carrier.Cons: The stitching keeping all hook and loop enclosures down are weak and were coming undone when I unpackaged them. Upon thorough inspection, the wrist straps (hook AND loop) were coming undone. On the utility pockets, on one shirt its the loop square on the actual pocket itself, on the other shirt its the loop rectangle on the pockets actual enclosure (where you would have your US flag and/or ISAF if deployed in hell)The neck is actually longer than typical "mandarin" collars, therefore making it harder to fold over and maintain a uniform look (I haven't tested just ironing the collar, but duh, it'll work)I didn't return them for an exchange, because its just as easy to sew them down myself and know that the quality of the stitching in those areas are now reinforced, rather than guess with a new set. Stitching is fine from the looks of it literally everywhere there isn't hook or loop patches/enclosures. Will they hold up under stress? I'll report back. Would I recommend these? If you're on a budget and/or you aren't looking for a camo pattern on the sleeves? Yes. Just know how to sew. My work allowed me to wear these kinds of utility shirts, I own one in black, two OD and one camo/coyote. These two are better quality than the black, but of lesser quality than the camo.Final: if the stitching was consistent all over, it would have 5 stars. If you're in the Military or Law Enforcement, give it a thorough inspection when it arrives. Last thing you want during a deployment with a crap ton of hook and loop unit patches is for the actual squares to come right off (the unit patches themselves do that enough)

liked the quality and the money. it looks perfect on me

Looks great and fits well. I wear a Large but I order a XL Just in case. I recommend buying a size up if you’re tall and a size down if you’re short.

I play paintball and assist with disaster response. I have used this shirt (and others of similar design) over the past few weeks helping with drive-thru COVID-19 testing and they have been great for when standing out in the sun. The arms are a more durable material so that your arms are more protected. The chest is a thinner, wicking type of material that keeps me from overheating. Even when wearing protective vests, I can still keep cool. The collar comes up nicely to cover the neck from the sun and the collar does not close up to suffocate or keep excessive body heat in. The pockets on the sleeve are great for adding organizational velcro patches and adding ID cards that would clip into the pocket.

Shrunk after one cold water wash. The design is awesome but the quality of the material wasn’t.

I was very excited when it arrived and when I saw it I was still excited. It was only when I decided to try it on that I was very disappointed, This thing is almost like a cactus inside, more specifically around your arms, neck, and shoulders. It honestly feels like these things are made out of plastic but like the plastic didn't melt properly and has sharp edges. If you wear something inside of it like another long sleeve then you might be fine but you will probably become one with the sun because of how hot you will be. I will be washing this and see if it gets better and if it does then I will post an update review but I do not think that washing it will do much.
