Advantages: A Nice Fit & available in a lot of Sizes

Disadvantages: Cheaper Material than I expected & Poor Stitching

I desperately needed a long sleeved white shirt for work and I looked all over the place for one but everywhere just seemed to sell short sleeved white shirts or extremely cheap looking long sleeved ones with bad fits. The one and only decent long sleeved white shirt I could find was this one on ASOS.com and I was quite hesitant to pay the £30 price tag for just a basic looking shirt.

But the picture of the model wearing the shirt on the site looked like it was a lovely and flattering, classy fit so I went ahead and bought it since I had pretty much looked on every other website and in every shop I could think of with no success. I first of all wasn't very impressed when the shirt arrived extremely creased, then on opening up the shirt I could see quite a lot of thread hanging from the buttons - for £30 the shirt should of at least had clean stitching. The material was also a very thin cotton, quite similar to the material that a cheaper Primark shirt tends to be which is exactly what I didn't want.

I tried the shirt on and there were two white stripes down the front which I couldn't really see on the picture on the ASOS site so they were a surprise, I would have preferred the shirt to just be plain white but never mind. It was a nice fit but I just couldn't get past the million creases and the poor stitching. I think the quality of this shirt is really not worth £30 and I wish I could have found another long sleeved white shirt cheaper!

The shirt is also available in Black and it is 97% Cotton & 3% Elastane - available in Sizes 6-10-12-14-16-18 UK.

Summary: I definetely think this Shirt is Overpriced!
