Got this in the mail:

Pretty nice. Full cut, decently soft. Interesting back story. Might get the pink too. They have a boxy cut that looks interesting, not sure if it's intended to be unisex or not though.

Some other brightly colored work wear-ish items as well.
Those seem pretty nice Frank. How thick is the material and how washed out are they (compared to a solid color)?

Material is definitely on the thicker side. Can't quite tell if it's a little slubby (seems possible given the recycled material) or just a little extra wrinkled from shipping. Feels like it should wear well, but time will tell. Construction looks fine.

Green color is a little faded, nicely so I'd say.

I bought mine the other day for $25, but now this style seems to be $10.

Will admit I'm kind of taken in my the story myself.

It says $10, but when you put it in your cart it costs $25 again. That was part of my confusion with the site. That and it seems to load super slow.

Well, I'm glad I didn't over pay.

There's some other odd stuff, like the tracking said the package was coming DHL (from LA?) and even linked to a DHL page, but the tracking number was USPS and that's indeed who delivered it.

But it got here promptly and it's what they advertised, so I'm chalking this all up to eccentric southern California.
