Shrinkage
By Steven
from Goodyear AZ USA
on Tuesday, March 31, 2020
Pros: Well made, comfortable
Cons: shirts shrink about half a size in the collar and insufficient tapper for a fitted shirt
Review:
Recently I purchased the same size shirt I have been wearing for many years. After receiving them I tried one before opening the others, it fits as I would expect. I washed all the shirts before going out on a trip. To my unpleasant surprise, I found they had shrunk.
The shirts shrank in a normal wash and dry by about a half size forcing me to purchase the next half size up. They too shark but to the size I require. The shirts are nice, could have a bit more taper for a truly fitted shirt. I give the shirt 3 stars for the shrinkage and the lack of a true tapper expected from a fitted shirt.

Tapered is not really tapered
By James
from Greeley CO USA
on Wednesday, October 10, 2012
Pros: high quality with buttoned flap.
Cons: WAY TO BIG. Did I mention they are HUGE?
Review:
This shirt is high quality. I like everything about it except that they are made for 250 pound people. I am 6'1" and 170lbs. I am at ideal weight for my height. I ordered tapered thinking it would fit but was disappointed to find the shirt is ENORMOUS!!! You would have to have a size 40 waist to even come close to this thing fitting. Spent $15 each getting each shirt altered. Why can't they make these shirts realistic???

Usually a good cheap shirt but an epaulet button fell off after one trip. Seems to be lower quality stitching than years past

Has some issues
By Thomas
from Grapevine TX USA
on Monday, February 05, 2018
Pros: Better than nothing
Cons: Insufficient length
Review:
I've been a fan of Van Heusen tapered/fitted shirts for years. So finding a pilot shirt from them seemed like a great deal. Although the shirts are fitted compared to other brands, the "drop" from collar to waist is not enough. I still had to have the waist and sleeves taken in. Even worse, the length is not great. The front of the shirt is barely long enough, but the sides are significantly shorter, which results in them not staying tucked in on the side. They pull up and make the shirt look like a muffin top. I'm disappointed.

Pros: good taper
Cons: too thin material, epaulet strips are a odd cut.
Review:
The shirts material is too thin. You can see right through the material. The epaulet strips are odd too. The are too long or thin and the epaulets slip way down to the outside, just don't seem to stay in place. I think I would buy a different shirt next time.

Still quite boxy - good material though
By read5756

Pros: Good, quality material
Cons: Still to flappy
Review:
I expected the 'slim fit' to be more fitted. It's not, so make sure your doors are securely shut to prevent it flapping in the wind :)

Good Fit - Bad Stitching
By Cory
from Eagle ID USA
on Monday, May 07, 2012
Pros: Good fit
Cons: Thin fabric, poor stitching
Review:
I order this shirt because I like how it fits. However, if I could find a pilot shirt that fit as well for similar price, I would definitely switch. One of my shirts which I have only worn a handful of times already has a ripped pocket not due to an aggressive action on my part. Also, threads are exposed everywhere revealing cheap production. Writing this review causes me to begin the search for a better product.

Tapered?!?! NOT
By A Customer
from new egypt new jersey USA
on Wednesday, March 12, 2008
Pros: good quality van heusen shirt
Cons: HUGE
Review:
This is a good quality shirt, I have bought from here before with no problem. They used to be "fitted" and are now "tapered". The shirt is NOT fitted or tapered. If you need a slim fit through the body, keep looking. These shirts are HUGE and fit like a trash bag.

I like the Commander shirts better, but they don't have the little patch for wings over the pocket so I tried these.

Good Shirt, bought more, paid for them, but didn't receive my delivery!
By Capt. D M
from New York NY USA
on Friday, April 02, 2010
Pros: Good Shirt from a previous purchase
Cons: Paid for a new purchase but didn't receive it.
Review:
I had bought this shirt before and I was happy with it. I ordered two more, but I never received them, although I paid for them. I had the shirts mailed to me at a hotel by the USPS. USPS confirmed the delivery to my hotel on their system on February 16, but I didn't receive them (I am writing this on April 2). I enquired by email (received an acknowledgment of receipt of the email) with MyPilotstore but did not receive a follow up on my enquiry. I phoned after three weeks and asked to speak with a supervisor who, while courteous, did not offer any solution. I have the integrity not to try to deceive a company of its product, so I am disappointed with how I've been treated.

What choice do I have?
By A Customer
from Tallahassee FL USA
on Friday, October 26, 2007
Review:
I agree with some of the other comments about these shirts. Nice, quality shirt but, they do fit like a sack! I will be taking mine to be fitted. I am a big guy; 40 inch waist with what seems like a 60 inch neck. If they fit the neck they are huge every where else. But what other choice do we have? DIET?

Nice stitching - but this "tapered" shirt fits like a garbage bag. Unless you weigh 300 pounds. Tapered doesn't mean much - I am taking all my old shirts in to get altered for $8 a shirt instead.

Made for a giant
By Mark
from Knox TN USA
on Monday, August 19, 2024
Pros: Price
Cons: Fit style and appearance
Review:
Well, I bought these shirts 15 years ago and they seemed to fit pretty good but now I am older with a fatter neck, the rest of the shirt just hangs off of me and the pockets are down around the top of my belly the sleeves come down past my elbow in a short sleeve style And overall just looks sloppy. I wish I could leave a good review because the price was great, but this will be my back up shirt only in case of emergency. I bought the tapered fit and they still had about 6 inches too much fabric around the belly.
