Having recently purchased two Waffle Henley shirts (Oatmeal Heather colour and the other Forest Night colour), my experience has been a mixed bag. On the positive side, the shirt boasts excellent quality and comfort. The softness of the fabric did not disappoint.
However, a consistent gripe across reviews on this particular shirt is the issue with sleeve length, ranging from being excessively long to the point of feeling like pajamas and I can confirm those reviews.
I possess a physique that some might colloquially refer to as a "dad bod," and this shirt doesn't do much to enhance the appearance of my midsection. After the holidays, I will be motivated to lose some weight. It seems the fit can be a hit or miss, and potential buyers might want to pay attention to sizing recommendations.
On the service front, there's a concerning account of extremely poor service with a delivery mishap, which raises questions about the brand's logistical efficiency.
On a brighter note, others have expressed sheer satisfaction, with one customer praising the fantastic fit and design, I find the XL size to be precisely what I was looking for – versatile enough for both social wear and outdoor adventures. I can vouch for the Merino shirt's effectiveness as a base layer on colder days, praising its softness. In conclusion, this shirt seems to offer a high-quality fabric with varying success in fit, alongside some concerns about service reliability.
Prospective buyers may want to consider sizing carefully and, perhaps, reach out to customer service to ensure a smooth purchasing experience.
