I wear this shirt as a docent at an air museum in toasty Pueblo, CO, and find the weight is perfect for hot days, and is comfortable even worn without a t-shirt underneath. It is big in the chest, and long in the sleeves, but since I wear this as an everyday duty uniform (sleeves rolled up, open collar) v. as dressy/SD style. Our weather has just gotten to the point where I can wear it under my A-2, and with my pinks (WPG-*****) and khaki crusher, I love the authenticity when I look in the mirror!

Could be better!

I only received one of the two shirts I ordered. That's an ordeal alone. I have three issue with the shirt.
1. The shoulder seam is far too low compared to every original I own. It is cut like a modern dress shirt. Makes patches look weird when applied.
2. The epaulets are much to long compared to originals. With that modern seam it looks like a safari shirt.
3. If you have a large neck and fit body, you will need to order up a size and have the body tailored. Very snug neck.

Nice shirt, worth the money

Bought this to go with the worsted wool trousers. Looks sharp! Fit across the chest is fine but I would've appreciated more room in the neck. I can widen the button hole and hope the cotton doesn't shrink in air-dry. The curse of being an American male over 50, I suppose. 5'8", 210 lbs, 42 chest and a 44 belly, with a 37 waist. :)
