Perfect

  • By Mike Main from Lexington SC USA on Tuesday, October 29, 2013
  • Pros: Hidden slot in breast pocket for glasses. Keeps its shape over time. Barely wrinkles, so ironing is easy.
  • Cons:
  • Review: Have been wearing the Elite Pilot shirt now for a couple years. Decided that I would purchase a mixed bag of pilot shirt brands ands styles. Turned out the Elite was the right choice all along. All the other brands hang in my closet as emergency go to seconds.

Finally, a company that wants to fit all Pilots!

  • By Mark from West Palm Beach FL USA on Thursday, May 24, 2012
  • Pros: Neck sizes up to 21"
  • Cons: None
  • Review: I first thought that Van Husan was the only game in town when it comes to Pilot Shirts, if your neck size is bigger than 18-1/2 forget about Van Husan, they think all pilots are "Skinny Necks".  I recently found AP Elite, and was excited to realize they have
    the right sizes for "ALL" Pilots, After wearing these shirts for 4 Months, another nice thing is the material does not seem to yellow with multiple washings like Van Husan does! I think all of the quality seems to be much better than V.H.

More than I expected!

  • By John from Nevada City CA USA on Wednesday, March 16, 2011
  • Pros: Proffesional Quality
  • Cons: None
  • Review: I was shopping for a uniform shirt for our Marine Corps League Detachment. The shirt will be worn for Color Guard, funeral services, formal functions, and parades. What I didn't expect was a military grade uniform shirt. Everything is first class.

Not for the average guy

  • By Paul from Voluntown CT USA on Tuesday, July 17, 2012
  • Pros: Great stitching and tapered fit
  • Cons: Expensive
  • Review: I compared this shirt to the Van Husen Aviator and found the elite shirt too tight and tapered for someone with an average build. The material and stitching were better but the fit was too tight. The material is about the same thickness as the Van Husen Aviator, as all the various shirts I have tried have been thinner or lighter than previous years. I will choose the Van Husen Aviator for the next few years.

Quality shirt

  • By Mark Busboy from Ipswich MA USA on Tuesday, May 13, 2014
  • Pros: Heavier quality shirt
  • Cons: Cost
  • Review: The shirt is a quality shirt not cheap like Van Husen. I personally like the extra pen slot in the right hand pocket.

  • By Ricardo from Norco CA USA on Sunday, April 17, 2016
  • Pros: Decent shirt, well made, handles being laundered. False top on pocket good for cell phone, pen openings in left pocket are good.
  • Cons: Very thin material, too thin to wear without an undershirt, tears easily, if you need to wear wings or a name plate get the shirt with the reinforcement over the pocket.

nice shirt

  • By JANET from Norridgewock ME USA on Wednesday, July 8, 2015
  • Pros: Looks like it will wash and wear well
  • Cons: no seams
  • Review: I thought that I was getting a shirt with the seams sewed in the back, for that price, it's what I expected. But I'll keep it and my husband may be able to find someone to put the seams in for him. He is wearing it with his military uniform.

AP Elite Pilot Shirt - Short Sleeve 18.5

  • By Long Haul International Pilot from Under paid and over worked Captain USA on Wednesday, April 6, 2011
  • Pros: Form fitting cut, even for a 6' 1" 285pound guy. Long torso also!
  • Cons: No wing backing.
  • Review: My only fault with this shirt is that there isn't a backing for my wings to pin through on the left side above the pocket. Excellent material and very white. Stiff collar is only suited for ties with a small knot.

B-

  • By Scott from Harpswell ME USA on Thursday, June 20, 2013
  • Review: Initially shirt fabric felt flimsy however it turns out it was really pretty good. Fit was really good as well. Collar is 4 star. One problem is the pocket configuration. One pocket is fake the other is only a half pocket. There are also no presewn reinforced holes for wings or name tags.

Decent, not Great

  • By A Customer from Nashville TN USA on Wednesday, August 23, 2017
  • Review: The material is too thin for my liking, and the fit is also more tapered than I anticipated. I like a sturdier shirt more like a quality men's dress shirt with a bit more room to move. I will not purchase any more of these shirts, nor would I recommend them to friends.

Much ado about nothing!

  • By Bill from New Bern NC USA on Monday, July 8, 2013
  • Pros: Nice material
  • Cons: Not as comfortable as other shirts have worn.
  • Review: Was a bit disappointed after the ad hype. The shirt is a pain to iron and the collar doesn't seem to fit right.

  • By Dr. Overchuk from Valley View OH USA on Thursday, September 24, 2020
  • Pros: Shirt fits
  • Cons: Neck is too tight
  • Review: The neck size is too tight and a larger size makes the shirt too big.  Can’t wait to find a better product.  Unfortunately I have to suffer with your product till I find something Else.

Horrible

  • By Tony Complo Falcon 7X from Internat'l on Sunday, January 11, 2009
  • Pros: Cuffed sleeves, and flap pockets. Makes good pajamas.
  • Cons: Collars flip up and does not hold shape or a crease. Total waste of money.
  • Review: Awful. Flimsy material and poor workmanship. You will look like a slob in these. Right out of package, the seams are all puckered and faithful attempts of pressing do not make them presentable. After a laundering, it is a slavage operation. Do NOT take these shirts on the road. Halloween costume for your wife at best.
