Pricey for the quality.

No, I don't recommend this

It is pricey for a plain shirt. Oversized, with tight sleeves when rolled up.

Very pleased with this shirt.

Yes, I recommend this

This is going to be such a useful shirt. The material makes it feel casual, but it can be dressed up too. I’m usually a 12/14 but went down to a 10 as baggy/relaxed doesn’t suit me.

Versatile beach shirt

Yes, I recommend this

I have mine in white, size 8. Probably could have taken a 6 but they were sold out. So even though it's oversized, it's perfect for a beach shirt or an over-shirt on a sunny day. While not a UPF shirt, it seems to do a good job of blocking the sun. The front can be knotted to create a waist so it looks cute with a dress. Fabric is thick and quality. I have not washed mine yet. But so far I think it's great.

Had to downsize from 14 to 12 as very generous sizing. Washed well and wasn't too long for someone who is 5ft tall.

Great fit

Yes, I recommend this

Purchased due to the recent heatwave in the uk, I really wanted a light shirt to wear during the day to cover from the sun & evenings when cooler. I downsized after reading other reviews and it fits perfectly for my size & height, however if you want it oversized stick to your original size, quality material, very pleased! For the price it’s very reasonable after looking at similar shirts from other retailers I’m glad I chose M&S

Again... sizing way out!

Yes, I recommend this

Such nice material, hangs lovely and doesn't crease. Love the khaki colour. Really nice shirt. Only thing is... again... marks and spencers... what is going on with your sizing??? I literally take no notice of your sizing now. Just try it on. I'm an 18, I had to go down to a 12 for this to fit! I've still give 5 stars because the shirt is so nice.

Stylish Khaki Shirt

Yes, I recommend this

Lovely light weight but substantial cotton that has a linen/cheesecloth look. Makes a great cover up but good enough to make a great outfit with matching trousers & a white Tee

Useful thick shirt

No, I don't recommend this

I like the colour and sizing. As the shirt fabric is double it will be too heavy for warm summer weather, but useful as a second layer in the Autumn

Perfect for covering up on a hot summer's day

Incentivised review originally posted on marksandspencer.ie

Yes, I recommend this

I initially bought one of the white beach shirts but have since bought two more because I liked the first one so much after having taken it on a two-week holiday to Portugal. I like the feel of the material on my skin, and the shirt kept me safely covered up yet beautifully cool at the same time. I also find these shirts casually dressy enough to wear off the beach, i.e. when spending the day in town or going out in the evening. They wash really well and dry quickly on the line.

beach shirt

Love this colour and soft cotton texture. I was first sent size 18 by mistake. Ordered 16 and although I've got lumps and bumps to cover it is still large. Will keep because I like it bit would recommend going down a size.

Yes, I recommend this

After I bought a nice summer shirt that I hoped would be cool in the sun, it has rained consistently. Looked great when I tried it on. Not sure how cool it will be yet.

Pure Cotton Double Cloth Beach Shirt

Good colour. Fit was quite large. Material not as fine as expected therefore warmer than expected.
