RothcoFire Retardant Combat Shirt (US, Alpha, X-Large, Regular, Regular, Midnight Digital Camo)

Im 5’10 195lbs, I’m very muscular but not enough to fill out this “medium”. The arms are so short - yet has a 18-20” circumference. The collar is large, the torso looks like a flowy dress on me, which tells me this was made for a more obese human. I don’t know what to suggest, if I went down to a size Small, the arms would be even shorter but the rest might fit.T-shirt material is soft, camo material isn’t scratchy.For $50 I guess I expected too much.It’s not great, but I’m keeping as a last resort backup. In case the next one I buy gets destroyed or wet.

I like it but I don't understand why the company decided to make the main body of the cloth portion of the shirt black, while making the rest of it digital camouflage. Or at least, I don't know why the company doesn't offer a version of the shirt that is complete digital camo throughout the shirt. Isn't the main purpose of camouflage to blend the wearer in with his environment? I know these shirts were intended to be worn under body armor but I think that is irrelevant. Not EVERYONE wears body armor on a daily basis and although im no longer in the military, everything at my job is GRAY, and its kinda nice blending in a little bit more so my boss doesnt constantly see everything im doing from a distance. The black shirt itself most certainly makes someone stand out from a distance in an urban environment, and even against a dark solid Gray concrete wall of the same color as the sleeves.Speaking of the sleeves... is it just me, or are the sleeves a little short? I kinda like it that way because when im working I dont constantly have to worry about the cuffs sliding over my hands a little bit and getting in the way... and when im washing my hands or doing something messy at work i dont have to worry about getting anything on the sleeves, but its a little odd I think that the sleeves seem to be around an inch shorter than i'd have expected. Keep that in mind, because is something youre either going to like or dislike about this shirt.They would have been better off making the shirt a solid dark gray like the color of the darkest gray in the cammo, because anyone who knows anything about camouflage and concealment knows that Black is not a real color. Black is simply the deepest shade of PURPLE. Black also does not exist in nature whatsoever and rarely exists in urban environments. As a fashionable shirt, sure, it looks nice. As a functional tactical shirt for wear in an urban environment WITHOUT the use of a camouflaged body armor vest... its lacking.Since it's designed to be worn as a soldier in the US Army or at LEAST a police force of sorts (judging by all the velcro on both arms) you would think they would have thought about how silly it would be to make the shirt black. If the intent was to market this as a shirt for people to wear out, for fashionable purposes, or at least to work (maybe look cool at work while also having pockets to put stuff and whatever) then why put the velcro on it? It just looks silly and makes people wonder "Does this dude think hes in the military or something?"Anyway, thats my two cents on it. I took the shirts to the tailor and had them remove most of the BLACK velcro which not only makes it look silly but has no purpose if you aren't in the military or on a swat team, and the shirt looks much better now and its quite useful having the extra pockets on the shoulders for storage. All in all, for a Rothco item, it's not too bad and i'd buy it again but if I ever found a better quality product with better forethought in the design of their shirt, i'd get it instead without hesitation.

I got the XL to make sure the sleeves would be long enough. I'm kinda tall and skinny (6'5"/195-200 probably around 215-220 with gear), and this is cut for someone with a bigger chest than mine. Guess I need to hit the gym. 🤷‍♂️It kept the sweat off me pretty well running around in the woods. If they had some tall sizes, it would be a 5 star from me, for sure.

This shirt would have five stars if not for all the velcro patches and upper neck portion.My husband loves it for FR wear, but the shirt rides back due to the type of material, making it like a turtle neck style, and rides up around the neck, on him.Understand some need the patches, but if y'all could sell some shirts without the patches, I bet they'd sell a while lot better and more of them. I know we'd buy a bunch.Really nice quality and comfort! Size fits as described. 8

Grandsons requested this for Christmas and they love it! I wasn't sure if I had ordered their request but after reading the description it was what they requested. Garment is well made and true to size!

Unlike many other purchasers of this shirt, I didn't have any problems with the size. I think sizes in general in the past decade or two have all gotten smaller, I used to fit into XLs just fine, but now it seems like XLs are the new L and they've all gotten tight on me. And no, it's NOT because I've gotten fatter, my weight has stayed consistent for pretty much my entire adult life. But I digress. The point is I'm 6'1" and 225 lbs with a thick frame, and the XL fits me just fine, it may even be a little too baggy if anything, but I prefer it that way.The torso section is just an acrylic/cotton blend that feels like a soft t-shirt, while the sleeves and the upper back are a much heavier-duty nylon/cotton blend. The elbows are even reinforced with some sort of padding or something. The sleeves will "swish" slightly as you move. I don't think there is anything wrong with the length of the sleeves, they go just past my wrist when standing straight with my arms at my sides, which is just about where they should be. They also have adjustable velcro wrist-cuffs. The torso length is great, it goes all the way down to the bottom of my butt, so there are never any issues with it becoming un-tucked when bending over or anything. It does seem to be sewn a little weird in that the front of the collar seems to sit higher on your neck than the back, making it feel like you've put the shirt on backwards. I don't know if there is some sort of tactical reason for this or not, but it sucks when wearing a balaclava or something with a short neck because when you look down, the back of your neck can sometimes become exposed.The pockets on the sleeves are useful I guess, but this is really just a base shirt, meaning that if you're gonna wear this, you're probably gonna be wearing all kinds of other gear too (like a vest for example), so really the sleeve pockets will probably be the least useful storage spot on your body in that case, except maybe for like documents or something. It's not thermal or anything like that either, so you'll probably be wearing some of that underneath too. Like I said, it's a base shirt. But a very good one.

I LOVE it. I was looking to replace my L/S Tiger Stripe shirt (Rothco) for wearing underneath my Nomex firefighting gear, and this C/S fits the bill perfect. There are several different "Combat Shirts" available on the market: ie "Rothco", "Propper" 'Tru-Spec" and each of these companies sells different models of the shirt. Material thickness, cut, name/rank tapes (Velcro), camo patterns, padding, to name a few variables.For this Combat Shirt the material is one the lighter side, which is what I desired.The cut for the arms is a bit larger than others, but that is ok for me, as I like the extra room. The body fits as expected. The sleeve length is on the short side, by design and I really like it. I am 6' and 165 lbs. With no extra 'padding'.The Subdued UDC was probably the best looking of the shirts when purchasing, and after many washes seems to be holding its colour.The two zippers continue to work as well.Hope this Helps

We'll say a 4 minus (or a 3 and a half).Not sure whether one would qualify this as "somewhat small" or "somewhat large"; the arms are a little short. I ordered an ex-large (6ft2, 205 lbs). Normally a large is perfect in length but too snug in the chest. Ex-large tends to be okay in the chest but too long in length (body and sleeves). In this case, the ex-large was actually loose in the body but an inch to an inch and a half too short in the sleeves. I guess it was designed for a wider but squatter form.Notwithstanding, it's still a very wearable and useable shirt and seems to be of decent quality for the price.

An update to my previous review:I tried it on when I originally received it and it felt snug but good enough range of motion to let me move my arms freely. I liked how it looked and blended with my loadout. Well... I just tried it on again, and the stupid thing ripped right away on the back where the camo meets the shoulder. What a poorly made product for the price. So disappointed.

I'm 5'11 and 195 pounds. I ordered this in a medium and its huge on me. Length wise its ok. But my issue is that the arms on this combat shirt are massive and I have 16inch arms already but its still not enough to fill them out. I would suggest you order a size down from what you normally get. Quality is great though. Only issue for me is the sizing.

Schlechter Shop. Zustellung wurde bereits zweimal verschoben. Trotzdem bin ich gespannt auf den Artikel, falls er mal ankommt.Ich hab schon aus mehreren Winkeln der Welt bestellt. Auch mehrfach aus den USA. Es dauerte nie so lange. Aber jetzt weiß ich, dass ich da nicht mehr so schnell bestellen werde.Falls es nicht am Shop, sondern an etwas anderem liegt, werde ich meine Bewertung natürlich ändern
