So I ordered a white and black one of these, since they looked like a cheaper version of 5.11's t-shirt holster. I own 6 5.11s.
I put on tru-spec's shirt, thinner padding on the holster pockets - AND Wide open!! No snaps, no velcro, I suppose they think friction is good enough - not. I put a S&W 637 .38 snubby in (safe and unloaded). The butt of the gun is about an inch from the holster opening just putting it in. I jumped up and down, shimmied, wiggled, etc. The pistol almost fell out. Without some owner initiated modifications, this shirt is dangerous. Of course, they can't put snaps or velcro to hold the pistol secure, 5.11's lawyers will have a fit. So if you buy these, and they are pretty good, except for that safety issue, make sure you put some on the holster openings to keep your pistol from falling out.

Nice everyday semi-dress pants with pockets! Lots of pockets. Enough for everything. First off, they're made from a very tough ripstop nylon/cotton treated with teflon. Perfect for being around the baby grandkids! Spill proof. Stitching is good, although, Propper apparently loves leprechauns. So many Irish Pennants! There's even knee pad pockets, of which I've a couple of pairs. They do help in everyday wear when you kneel down. Color doesn't fad. Machine was on warm with a cold rinse, low heat dry for 1/2 hour and they're wrinkle free. Sizing is true also.

It's made solid. Good stitching, in construction and the embroidery. Solid, heavy duty clip. I wouldn't attache it to my keychain though. Put it on your belt and clip your keys to it. What if someone borrows your keys and gets in an accident? Oops! Wrong blood type! That's why I say, if it's your's, keep it on your belt or a pant's belt loop. Other than that, it's a nice key holder. Let's face it, you get to the hospital they'll blood type you anyways. And you won't get a transfusion in the FEBA either.

If you ever wondered what it was like to wear Spiderman's top, now you can. Be sure of your size, these are really reinforced compression t-shirts. They do fit tight, but they have to, to support your weapon. Stitching is top notch, the side kangaroo pouches are of a type of foam padding that doesn't chafe, at least on me. Pouches are deep, I can stash anything from a Browning Hi Power to a S&W J frame. The other pouch holds your mags or speed strips (they're flatter and hide better, if you've a revolver). You may need help putting it on and taking it off. There's a trick if you're a small guy, but big guys better get the wife or girlfriend to help you with your gun toting girdle! Otherwise, you may rip it apart trying.

I have both the Jungle and Battle Brown shirts and in a lot of photos they look like a solid brown or green. They're not. They have a faint plaid pattern. Cleaned and pressed they look great. They have solid stitching and the snaps for buttons are still there and snap solid. Unsnapping for weapon access is not difficult either. You don't need to rip apart your shirt like Superman, a good tug from both sides and you're ready to deploy. If you buy these shirts, I would suggest buying one or two of 5.11's t-shirt holsters as these shirts seem to be made to work together. And they do it very well, as I own 4 of them also. They can be machine washed in warm water with a cold rinse and a dryer setting of low heat for a half and hour. Out of the dryer you may notice a little puffiness in the material. If you don't like it, well, that's what an iron is for. Or the dry cleaners!

I own 7 or 8 or these shirts in varying colors. My review is about the Goldrush colored one. Once you wash and press it, it becomes almost Corvette Yellow! Which is a pretty sharp color with a pair of navy blue pants! Sizing is a little generous. I'm a small and can hide a full frame auto if need be. These shirts, I think are specifically made to be used in conjunction with their 5.11 holster t-shirts. Stitching and snaps are solid, none have popped off and snap tight. They definitely look better if dry cleaned and pressed. You can machine wash them. Warm water wash , light detergent, with a cold rinse and then dry on timed low heat for a half an hour. Then iron it. Great shirts if you carry concealed.

These are a polyester/canvas material that's a lot thicker than their ripstop nylon pants. Very solid material, treated with teflon like all Propper Tactical pants. They haven't faded yet and they're wrinkle free after washing and drying. I do a warm wash/cold rinse and then low heat drying them. They come out perfect for a slacks hanger. All the standard pockets, seams are tight and double stitched. Great for everyday wear!

She loves them, she has 2 pair. They're a mesh top with reinforced sides. Very light weight. Not waterproof or water resistant, but if they get wet, they dry quickly. It has a solid sole,good treads,not much arch support, but, these are trainers. Sizing runs true. One thing, don't yank on the laces to tighten them. Just snug tighten with your fingers, you may rip a lace hole.

First the material is not t-shirt thin. It's a medium/heavy material that is true to size. Stitching and buttons are solid. Wear it outside or tuck into your pants, the shirt gives you plenty of room to move around in. As with most 5.11 apparel, I wash in warm water/cold rinse, low heat or fluff dry. Hang them up afterwards and wrinkles, if any, work themselves out. All in all, great polo shirt to buy and wear for any occasion in the spring, fall or winter.
