mine ended up arriving yesterday too. just grabbed it and need to get cleaned up after a workout before trying it on but the quality is impressive for the price. The quality of the fabric is great. It definitely has a more substantial feel than I thought it would. Construction is solid. There are a couple sewing issues, though. The placket is straight from the bottom up to the second button from the neck, but strays a little to my left from there on up. It also looks as though the placket was being stretched as it was sewed. The sashiko lines go in and out of alignment all the way up. The pocket was sewn a bit askew, as well. It strays from my right to left, bottom to top. I can see how this would be a tough pattern to get perfect, and a little Wabi-sabi seems fitting for a traditional Japanese fabric. Last note: It is going to get a nice warm soak, and a hang dry. It definitely came in a little larger than the unwashed sizing, and is consistently large all around. A full size of shrink should be perfect.

hmmmm...i have a somewhat similar placket but it's just slightly askew and won't be noticeable. my pocket turned out a bit better i'm sorry to say. bummer about it not being straight for you but i have a feeling when worn, it won't be an issue. it's a much slimmer shirt than i was expecting...let's just say i need a few more workouts to be comfortable in it.

I don't believe it will be an issue, either. The look of this fabric is way too "busy" to notice the misalignment, unless it's layed out and you're looking right at it.

But on the real, it's still a hefty price anf I don't know if I'm willing to cross that bridge to the dark side quite yet.

Considering, I've got a couple pairs in this price range, or greater, I don't see it as the "dark side", anymore. Trust me, when you get there, you'll be happy you followed Vader.

They look pretty damn nice.

Yeah, they should REAALY do hidden indigo stripes in perhaps a slightly different indigo shade, or a stripes that wear in with age. Emblazoned on in white or black just looks 90s to me.

Agree on the stripes, hideous. There are several pairs out there without the stripes though

I regret not grabbing it last time. Guess I need to now. I just wish it had grown a second pocket in the interim.
