The fabric is much better than the picture. It is slightly shiny like embroidery floss. This shirt is also slightly sheer/see-through, but only in bright light. I absolutely love it and so does he.
Soft but sturdy fabric, handsome print, fits my broad-shouldered husband well with room for comfort in the Texas heat. His favorite "Go to" shirt for BBQs and other summer/autumn outings when he wants to look tropical but still subtle. Recommend!!
