United StatesWorth the wait
I had my eye on this color combo for a long time, but the XL size was not available, for a year, or so it seemed. Not a problem, it was worth waiting for. The fit is still a bit tight around my American belly, but that's another story. It's going to be my main go-to undershirt fir the Winter, the heavy cotton is just right for the Northern cold months. This one, and a navy/white Meridien. Go ahead and splurge. These shirts last a long time. Bon Chance!?
United StatesJust buy one
If you have a slim build, the shirt will fit well. It feels substantial. Great for layering or by itself on a cool day
