Nice shirt but epaulets too loose
by A Customer from Lakewood CO USA 
Pros: Quality materials and good fit.
Cons: Epaulets loose due to button placement.
Review: Nice high quality shirt. After wearing it under leather jacket, epaulets would crease and look bad. Noticed the epaulets were loose and flopping off of the shoulders. I moved the buttons that secure the epaulets 1/2" closer to the collar and it fixed the problem.

Made for fat people
by Ron from Anchorage AK USA 
Pros: Nice looking shirt
Cons: Made just for fat people
Review: This product for everything else is perfect. You need to offer a tapered style. Yes, I lift weights and have a larger neck and need an 18.5" neck in my shirts but this shirt has approximately 10-12" of additional material for "thickness at the belly" .. Makes for a nice fitting shirt at the top and nery sloppy, loose and unkept look at the waistline. Due to that alone, this shirt looses 2 of the 5 points total.

This is the only pilot shirt I buy.
by A Customer from Parker CO USA 
Pros: Wears well, long lasting.
Cons: Epaulet buttons not sewed on well enough.
Review: Reliable shirt over the years. Consistently good quality. Sometimes the epaulet buttons come off from wearing against the cockpit seat shoulder straps, so I have to sew them back on.

Well built, hard to iron.
by Flyin B from Santa Ynez CA USA 
Pros: Good quality construction.
Cons: Very difficult to press, easily wrinkles.
Review: The quality is what you'd expect from an $18 shirt. Next time I'll spend a little more for a higher grade material that holds a pressing longer.

by Levon from Juneau AK USA 
Review: It was what I ordered; a basic white uniform shirt that can display my epaulets. It fits well and looks appropriate. The only improvement I could wish for is a choice of tasteful off-white color options, Other than that, it is a white uniform shirt. There is something about a uniform that certain people are attracted to...

Not completely happy with VanHeusen Commander
by Dutch from Calhoun GA USA

Best shirts out there
by A Customer from Granger IN USA

Nice shirts!
by Gray from Manhattan, NY 
Pros: Generous cut and fit. Good stitching/construction
Cons: Are any pilot shirts really "High Quality"?? These are the best I can find among shirts that cost less than $25
Review: These shirts have a generous cut. Normally I need "Tall" sizes but these work fine. As an airline pilot, I like to make sure my shirts don't wrinkle easily. These hold a press nicely.

Review: The epulette holder is much to long and causes it to arch up and look funky... A bit disappointed. Also bought 5 SS 17.5 shirts and one of them felt like the neck size was a 16 even though it says 17.5. My wife had to move the top botton over but its still tight compared to the others. Thought about sending it back but we pay for shipping and I wore it once and washed it. Very disappointed about that too.

Pockets are interesting...
by Dean from Kuna ID USA 
Pros: Wash and wear without ironing
Cons: none
Review: Great Product. The fabric is heavy and should wear a long time. the shirts wash and dry easily without ironing. I didn't know how I would like the pockets as the flap is sewn on the pocket so the entire pocket is opened all the time... After a few weeks use, I find I quite like that feature... no fumbling with buttons while trying to fly approaches to minimums... quite accessible.

Van Heusen quality is intact
by Doug from SAINT CLOUD FL USA 
Pros: Good service by MyPilotStore. Consistant quality from VanHeusen.
Cons: The above problem with the epalet flap.
Review: My order was filled accurately and shipped promptly. As for the shirts, they are replacing the same Van Heusen shirts and the new ones are of the quality that I have come to expect from Van Heusen. However, the epalet tabs are not sewn flat to the shoulder, so initially they do not lay flat. If ironing them down it does not help. I will have to sew them down.

Good Shirt - Bad Sizing (for some at least)
by Lonnie from Tyrone Georgia USA 
Pros: Construction quality, cotton content
Cons: Only available in XX+1/2 neck sizes -- Van Heusen needs to at least make the neck size in 15 and 16 without the 1/2
Review: I use to buy the much cheaper Arrow shirts. Thank goodness they stopped making it. This is a great shirt. The only problem is the sizing. I understand that Van Heusen wants to save cost by getting rid of some sizes (only availailable in XX+1/2 neck sizes), but whoever starts making this quality of shirt in the size 16 neck size will get my money. Forget about searching the internet for the other sizes (15, 16, 17, etc.). Even it they list it, it does not exist. Believe me I tried for days. In the interim, this is the best value -- including prompt professional service.

Really nice shirt
by Andrew from Pittsburgh PA USA 
Pros: General fit and construction
Cons: Epaulet flaps much too large.
Review: I really like these Commander shirts, much better then what my airline supplier provides and at less cost. The only downside is that they do seem to wrinkle faster and the epaulet flaps are HUGE. You could put TWO four bar captains epaulets on each flap. Nice shirts though and I hope that they continue to sell them.
