 Nice little top November 20, 2006
17 out of 17 found this review helpful
This top really looks good on. Runs a bit small. I am a size 6 & the medium is perfect. I would not call it ribbed, but it feels good on the skin & is soft. The orange is a great color, near a poppy color. The scoop neck is low-scooped just right. The sleeves give you a little room at the end of the sleeves, so it doesn't look tight. The hem/finish all around is nice, not cheap. The length is good in these days of too short shirts. A good buy.
Great Tee May 26, 2007

Great lightweight, well made, not flimsy tee.
Make sure to visit the link with the sizing chart for proper fit. I usually take a medium top but according to their chart I would need a large. The large does fit perfectly. It lightly skims my curves - not too tight, not too loose. I'm 5'6" and it falls high hip, which is exactly the length I like.
I've worn and washed these tees several times and they have neither faded or shrunk.
Very happy with the quality and particularly the price.
shirt of my dreams August 8, 2007

It's cool without being too revealing; it has half sleeves so important to a woman over 60; it's long enough to cover "the situation." I love it.
Basic Essential 3/4 Sleeve Tee September 18, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
American Apparel makes great tees, very durable and of 100% cotton which is rare among the various knits and blends that are the norm in fashion now. I purchased 1 of these at first in White XL, but I've since purchased 4 more in Yellow, Blue, Black and Green. The fit is great; I'm busty (40D) and usually take an XL in tops anyway and I was a bit leery from the descriptions given about the fit by others, but the cut of the tee actually minimizes my bust and smooths the figure. The fit is snug, but the cotton conforms rather than clings (the rib knit) (without bulges spilling) to your body and as such is not at all uncomfortable. It actually moves with you instead of against you. Made of a very soft but sturdy cotton, which remains so after several washings.
The colors are great and very intense. The blue pictured on the "model" is not the color you get however. The blue you receive is the actual color of the swatch itself, a lighter version of cobalt blue, but a very deep color that's rare to find in any tee and prettier than the blue on the model. The other colors are as pictured and described by others. I've washed them several times, hand washed (my preference in Woolite) as well as machine washed (per label instructions) and the colors have remained true without any particular fading which is another rarity.
Little to no pilling. I had pilling on one tee which was MY fault because I had tossed it in with a washcloth by accident, but the others have not pilled yet (6+ washings and still going strong). There's been no shrinkage either (air dried & tossed in a dryer) and no nasty stretching out.
That's it basically...The 3/4 length sleeve and cotton fabric makes it versatile to wear throughout all seasons, even in the fall. It's particularly nice under a suit jacket, with a skirt or just for casual wear with jeans. The colors and the cut make them unusual and unique and a scoop neck ALWAYS makes anyone look extra special. You WILL reach for them time and again and they have become a staple in my wardrobe. If only shipping were cheaper, I would triple my orders. As it is, whenever I get the chance (and money) I get extras just in case they ever stop selling these.
 Good work out shirt April 5, 2008

I ordered this shirt in pink. The color is very pretty. The length is a little long which is fine as I am rather tall. The neck line is flattering. Be aware: The fit is snug. For me, that makes it a good work out shirt. It doesn't flap in the breeze when I bend over and get into positions that could be compromising. And, this is good!!! I would recommend this shirt to anyone -- keeping in mind the snug fit!!!
