Excellent
Great fit and feel. Love it.
Perfect top
The Garde Cote lll is my go to top for travel as well as everyday! Washes beautifully, doesn’t crease and is very comfortable. My only complaint is lack of colors. My red striped top is wearing out and needs replacement and the red color seems to be discontinued.
Love this shirt
Well made & good fit. Thank you
