    Comments about Royal Robbins Desert Pucker Shirt - Men's:

    This is an otherwise perfect shirt. Fit, feel, durability, etc. I'm on my second and am about to go buy a third (not a replacement, I just want more colors.)

    But: if you tumble-dry it, the threads along the rim of the cuff will eventually break, and the cuff will fray, in a way that's not easily repaired. The first one I bought suffered this fate before I realized what was going on.

    The thing is, this shirt dries like lightning. Hang it on a hanger straight out of the wash, and put everything else in the dryer, and the shirt will be dry first.

    Under all other circumstances so far the shirt is as durable as any. It feels great to the touch, which is most important to me, almost like lightweight suede. It sheds stains and smells, dries quickly, and packs small. I haven't noticed any undue fading or color shifts beyond what I'd expect from normal use. So just don't put it in the dryer and all is well.

    To RR: Put some reinforcement on the cuff - That's the only spot I've noticed the fraying problem - and change the care tag to specify hang-dry only. Problem doubly solved.

    Comfortable, understated and stylish. Yes, they fray, and fray, and fray. I bought these several times over (would I ever learn?) and none lasted more than 2 seasons. I still look at these everytime I visited the REI website but will buy no more. What is going on, Royal Robbins?

      I mostly wear this shirt, unbuttoned, around town paired with a color coordinated t-shirt. It is very comfortable and stylish. It has become my favorite casual shirt. I carry a concealed weapon and it is long enough keep it concealed.

      Comments about Royal Robbins Desert Pucker Shirt - Men's:

      The rap on this shirt is that it frays at the edges after quite a few washings even though I always hang it to dry. Still one of my favorite shirts for work or casual wear.

        I had written a review earlier saying how my shirt hadn't frayed. The next day I pulled it out of the wash and lo..!!

        I only bought the shirt in May. I wonder if owners have been over doing it with the conditioner. The fabric is already very soft. Just a thought.

        Comments about Royal Robbins Desert Pucker Shirt - Men's:

        Got the first shirt in Sept 2011.
        After about 9 months, the fabric at the edges of the sleeves and bottom edges frayed severly and threads were coming loose. REI gladly accepted the return (albeit for less than I paid originally) and I decided that I liked the style/weight enough to buy 2 of them. I wore the original about 25-30 times before returning it. Probably best to wash gentle cycle and hang up to dry.

            I've had six of these for 2 seasons so far. They hold up really well ONLY if you dryclean. It gets expensive, but prevents fray and premature wear-out.
