"These shirts are for short and wide people"

Unfortunately for me, I ordered 3 of these shirts in a variety of colors right away, rather than buying one and seeing if I liked it.

I don't like these shirts. I bought 3 size large, because all of my other shirts that fit well are size large.

They are barely long enough lengthwise, stopping at about my hips. And they are VERY wide, and cut very unflatteringly. It is as though these shirts are made for short wide people, because it BILLOWS on me torso wise, while at the same time being nearly too short to be usefully worn.

I certainly won't be buying Russel shirts again. 1 star

"comfortable and simple"

Russell's 100% cotton t's & long sleeve t's make great layering wear or just by themselves. Quality made at a reasonable price. 4 stars

"Good but not best"

The material is a little scratchy and lighter weight than I expected, but all in all this is a good product at the price. I will say they don't seem to stretch out of shape as fast as other brands.

If you are looking for higher quality (and price) get the Champion version. 3 stars

"Good price and good value!"

The Russell Long Sleeve Tee is a good deal at $9.99 and it qualifies for Free Shipping too!

I'm a slim to average guy and it fits very well. It's not too loose nor too tight. It's about an inch longer (at the bottom) than I'd like, but it's not a big deal. The fabric is not as soft as my J. Crew ($20)layering tee, but it's still comfortable. I really like the width or thickness of the collar on the tee. Some t-shirts have a very narrow & thin collar but the Russell Tee is perfect.

This is a great long sleeve layering tee under a polo shirt or graphic t-shirt. You should probably buy one t-shirt first to try out, then buy a few more if you like it. I definitely recommend the Russell Long Sleeve Tee. 4 stars
