Very Comfortable, But Doesn't Hold Up

I had two of these and loved them, till they started falling apart. I kept wearing them with the strings hanging off for a while they were so comfortable. The soft material doesn't hold up and my experience with them left a bad taste in my mouth for Royal Robbins quality.

Wonderful comfort, terrible durability

1 year ago

I've bought two Desert Pucker shirts in the last five years, and they are unquestionably the most comfortable short-sleeve shirts I've ever worn. Unfortunately, they're also the least durable shirts I've ever worn as well—the seams on both shirts began fraying badly in less than a year of just seasonal wear. I even spent $$ to have a tailor re-do the seams of the first one I bought. The same seams on the second shirt have also frayed badly enough that I have to keep snipping threads hanging loose. If I ever see a Desert Pucker for sale somewhere I'll consider buying another one and live with the fraying seams, but I won't pay full price.

Beware of color fading after wash

6 years ago

The shirt is made well and has a great look and feel. But when it came out of the first wash, there were color splotches on it. Meaning...some of the color of the shirt (grey) had washed off. There was an orange splotch in the lower left corner of the shirt. The shirt is so cool I considered just wearing it that way. But for an expensive shirt like this and being a Royal Robbins brand, I decided that it was too much money to justify this quality.

Not durable

5 years ago

This is a great looking shirt and was super in hot weather. I wore it on vacation in Europe and then half a dozen more times across the past 10 months. In total it was laundered maybe 12 times. Shirt fabric developed a horizontal tear this week from button hole to side seam.

Super soft. Lasts for - evah!!!

1 year ago

This is my go to shirt from spring to fall. It's sooooo comfortable with a tee when it's cooler and in hot weather super soft with awesome airflow. When it gets wet it seems super soaked - but wait 10 minutes and it's almost dry. I can't figure out how Royal Robbins pulled that magic. My first Desert Pucker is still going strong and I just can't help myself adding more and more colors. Original shirt photo attached - not sure I can wear this thing out unless I grind it on granite with my climbing buddies!!

I've Loved these shirts for years!

8 years ago

I've been wearing these shirts for years. They are the softest shirts I've ever worn and they fit perfectly (I'm 5'-9", 170 lbs and wear a medium). They're nice enough to wear just about anywhere and look nice tucked or un-tucked (my preference). I just bought three for some upcoming travel since they look great without a lot of care. The buttons are magic on these shirts...I've never had one fall off. The only problem I have with them is that after about a year they fray around the edges...it's the price you pay for such a comfortable shirt and a good excuse to try out some new colors.

THE best all around shirt

8 years ago

These shirts never disappoint. The fabric is comfortable and washes well. They never need ironing and always look great. Our only complaint is that there is a relaxed style and a fitted style which look identical in the stores. The labeling is not clear enough and it is all too easy to pick out a new familiar shirt from the rack and come home to a shirt that does not fit the same way. Also why are there so many colors on your site with so many of them not in stock? (at least for the size we were looking for - L)

Nice styling but not wrinkle resistant

5 years ago

Bought two of these shirts on impulse right before a trip to Italy. They were lightweight and designed for warmer temps and looked like a nice upgrade from a polo shirt but not too dressy either. Got one in long sleeve and one in short sleeve. Once washed they do feature a "pucker" texture kind of like seersucker which I presume helps with the cooling ability of the synthetic fabric. They wrinkle quite a bit when packed and when washed and line dried they are a rumpled mess and definitely require ironing for a presentable appearance. I'm 5'8" and 160 and these shirts feel a bit tight through the upper back/shoulder region if flexing both arms forward but are otherwise comfortable enough. The colors are rich and pleasing to the eye. Recommended with reservations about wrinkles and fit for some.
