World's Coolest® Cotton Madras Shirt

You'll stay cool and comfortable in this handsome Madras shirt, cut from our open, square-woven cotton fabric very nearly as lightweight as our World's Coolest shirting material for breathability and a relaxed fit. Dyed in a rainbow of muted colors—subtle variations ensure that no two shirts are exactly alike—this Madras shirt boasts a button-through patch pocket, center front placket, and back box pleat. Spread collar. Pure cotton. Washable. Imported. Sizes: S(34-36), M(38-40), L(42-44), XL(46-48), XXL(50-52).

Solid fashion statement,
March 12, 2013

from Chicago Burbs IL
"Great looking shirt with a really nice (and unusual) coloration. Goes with almost anything. Quality fabric and tailoring. As with all Orvis apparel, it is a little pricey but the quality/value is obvious. I'd buy another one."

Let Down,
February 13, 2013
By: 161Chipps
"The shirt failed to match the good colour balance of the brochure image, and its quality fell well short of the price charged. It was returned. Customer service though was excellent."

Good shirt,
January 19, 2013
By: MarkfromFL
from Central Gulf Coast, FL.
"Shirt looks nice, I use for knocking around the house and run errands to the bank or for groceries. Great for the hot climate here in Florida. Billowy, breezy and comfortable, colors contrast nicely with any of my pants or shorts. Couple of drawbacks. One, the colors depicted don't represent true to color. There are lime green tones that don't match the photo, which appear more of a brown, in my opinion. Another drawback, after the first washing, the shirt isn't as crisp nor is it as vibrant, even after following care instructions. Still hesitant to return it, as the overall nature of the shirt is still very nice, despite the drawbacks, reflected in the 4-star rating opposed to 5."

from Orange County, CA
"This shirt is perfect for business casual. I like the breathable fabric and it is constructed very well. I have washed the shirt once with no visible difference in the appearance. The color is really a multi, not specifically blue as described. It goes especially well with khaki-colored pants and could work with jeans, too."

Good Choice,
June 6, 2012
By: Transo
from Dundee
"I guess casual shirts fall in to two categories the ones that you wear and wash a couple of times then discard or the the ones you like that always look good and you keep for years, this one is the latter. The shirt has a quality feel about it and I am sure it will get plenty of use in the summer"

"The XL shirt needs to be tapered. The chest size is OK but from the chest down there is too much material. I needed to get the shirt altered."
