I bought 2 of these during a 25% sale (otherwise I wouldn't even have considered them due to the price). I'm 5'4", 160 and wear med/large normally in Athleta (I do yoga) and I bought the MED in Pyrite and Snowfall Blue. Right out of the package, these shirts look GREAT. TTS. Loose fitting and eve...n wrinkled they still look classy but casual. You might be able to size down but i wouldn't. I love that the sleeves/cuffs are cut so that they can be easily folded and lie flat without being constricting or bunching on the arms. Personally, I tend to shy away from collared shirts; I have a short neck and open neck tops are more flattering on me. But I work from home and could use comfy, effortless professional tops when I'm on camera. These linen shirts are PERFECT as I can quickly throw them over a tank top and wear open or buttoned. The collar itself is small and fashionable, not so corporate looking. Hopefully after a few washings, the the soft fabric will allow the collar (when buttoned) to "fall away" from my neck a bit so that it's not constricting and boyish looking and give it a feminine, relaxed vibe. This is not your typical starchy, stiff collared shirt. The fit is a bit boxy, but not too much. (I gave it 4 stars since I wish it had just a bit slimmer profile when buttoned). These will be an excellent packable, all-purpose travel shirt and will complement a variety of pants, skirts, or shorts! PS. The Pyrite color is STUNNING.
I was excited to refresh my linen pieces, but these were a no. They were kind of heavy and a bit scratchy. Also, reviews mentioned them running large, and that's not accurate if you're bottom-heavy. I'm a true pear (32" chest, 28" waist, and 40" hip) - I ordered a small. It was a little large/mascul...ine looking in the chest, but tight across my hips. Medium wouldn't work in the chest. Larger side slits could make this work, Athleta!

Beautifully tailored, classic linen shirt. The weight of the fabric is perfect; not too heavy; not too sheer. If you decide to launder yourself in cold water and minimally dry on an air-dry setting in your dryer, then iron, the results are excellent. They also dry-clean well. Great for casual or evening wear, depending on how you wish to wear with skirts or trousers and accessorize. They are a staple in every color in my wardrobe. And, they hold their quality and color over the years, which is remarkable. I hope Athleta keeps these in their line for the future as linen shirts of this quality are difficult to find at such a reasonable price for the quality.

One of the most comfortable long sleeved tops I have found. I have ordered both the M and S. Both work but prefer the extra room in the sleeve in the M. Can be used an an over shirt as well as a shirt on its own.
