I've worn LLBean chamois shirts for well over a decade and used a couple during my days with UPS sort. Highly recommend them!

Try a Viyella Shirt if you can afford one or two, you won't be disappointed.

This is all great stuff and thanks very much, guys. Robert, my chamois and flannel shirts perform the same duty, an overshirt in cold weather. I had wondered about Lands End and Bean, I will check these out as well as the others named, thanks again, all. Joe, yeah I had same "huge" issue with my first order which was only a size L...had to send them back as they were almost tentlike on my frame.
The stuff about Woolrich licensing their name out makes sense, too. Maybe I did get a tall version all those years ago, who knows. I bought these latest ones from Campmor and I think they will take them back even though it's been several months. What a shame. I did send Woolrich an email expressing my deep displeasure, we'll see what they respond.
FWIW, I bought a couple of chamois shirts from Kohl's (house brand) last year with about the same results. Probably made at same place. Ack. I guess quality is in short supply these days.

LLBean isn't quite as good as they used to be either for shirt quality and size variances.
Re: Anyone buy Woolrich shirts? - SteveO - 11-13-2011
Bean's chamois shirts have 700+ reviews, most quite positive it seems. But quality can vary year in and year out with anyone I guess. I just read a LE review on their chamois that said this year they changed the material to a very light one vs. last year's. Bummer! I think I'm still gonna try one, though. Need to check out that Moose and Duluth now...the Viyella is quite a little more than I like to spend on a shirt, but looks nice!
