Previously I reviewed this product as an Amazon Vine reviewer.  That review has disappeared, apparently.  I originally gave this shirt a 5-star review, I believe, and am here to downgrade it significantly.  I also had initially intended to purchase another one for myself, and am glad I did not.

In the first 3 years of wear (very light wear), it held up VERY nicely!  Plus, it was cool in the hottest (high humidity) weather of the year, each summer (deep South summers!).

Suddenly the collar simply isn't what it used to be as I began to wear it for the fourth year.  It's no longer straight, and gives the appearance of having been badly stretched repeatedly (similar to a TV commercial that was recently airing on national broadcast network TV, showing a t-shirt that someone would NOT want to own, with a badly stretched out collar).

I've got 7-10 year old t-shirts that have had the collar hold up better than this, and they were less expensive than this one by far.  I'm very disappointed, since this shirt has been worn in non-stress situations (no sports in this shirt - just worn as a casual shirt in the warm weather when going into town, for example).  It has always been washed with high quality laundry detergent with no bleach or other substance that could possibly harm the fabric, etc.

Would I buy another identical shirt to replace this or to get another color?  Probably, but ONLY if the price was low, so I didn't feel too badly about only having it last about three years with good appearance.  This is not worth the top price being charged on Amazon currently - and I'm very disappointed to say that because I really loved the shirt in the previous three years.  Do the wrinkles in the collar cause it to look cheap?  Look at the photo and you be the judge.  The collar band was straight and flat around the neck/shoulders even after having been worn several days in a row.  It has not been stretched out - this is simply deterioration of the shirt with very light wear.
