The shirt design was what I was looking for. The material stays wrinkled, not a good look. The color matched the skirt but would have been better in different colors and a better material.
Hello Maribeth, thank you for sharing your feedback with us. Unfortunately, cotton and hemp do have a tendency to wrinkle, but a steaming or low iron usually does the trick. If you find that you're unhappy with this purchase, you're welcome to [send it back](https://www.patagonia.com/returns.html).

Bring back original lightweight AC shirt
Hello Patagonia, I returned this shirt. I have two lightweight short sleeved AC shirts from some years ago. They were perfect. I should have bought more but by the number of positive reviews, I didn't think you change them but unfortunately you did. The early version had capped sleeves, rounded collar with buttons to the collar. They were loos... Read Moree fitting but the same size was not nearly as loose at the current version I returned. Please bring back the original style.

As reviewed by others
This has a pretty low upper button, and is fairly see-through. Not a deal-breaker but not ideal. It is fairly cool.
I also had the issue of the shirt collar sliding back on my body (so it is like the front of the collar/first button is up at my neck). I wish there were a higher first button too, maybe this would help. I'd wear it more if it fit better. makes me feel a little like a grandpa. I find it quite wide/boxy too. A little too much to tuck in. I got ... Read Morea small. Maybe an XS would have been better. I see why some people like the fit. I like the yellow color and it is cool (temp wise). It's sheer, but I like that.
We're sorry to hear the oversized boxy fit of this shirt isn't quite working for you. Please feel free to take it to your [local Patagonia-owned store](https://www.patagonia.com/store-locator/) for a possible alteration, return or trade-in. They'll be happy to help!

It definitely keeps me cool
It definitely keeps me cool and is very light fabric without feeling cheap or easily torn. I dont think it is worth its price tag.
I was hesitant about the fact that there isn't an option to button it all the way to the collar, but the fit is really great so I don't miss that extra button. It's naturally loose-fitting so it doesn't feel like it's sticking to you even if you get sweaty. The back does tend to pull down causing a need to shift the front o...

Great shirt for massaging Horses but the care instructions are so unclear!
I own 3 short sleeve versions of this shirt and one button down. On each shirt the tag with care instructions offers symbols(which are unclear to me) and written instructions in multiple languages but not in English. How do I best care for this shirt? Why are the labels lacking in this way? There are also no care instructions on the product detail ... Read Moreportion on the website. I can speak to the quality and comfortability of the shirt in regards to working with horses but yes the fabric in the striped shirt is see-through and I have to wear a tank.
Thank you for this review, Jackie. That's so cool that you're wearing it for massaging horses! As far as care goes, in general, washing your gear in cold or warm water with mild laundry soap (non-toxic, biodegradable types preferred) and drying it on the line are the best ways to clean Patagonia® products and ensure their longest life There is more detailed information on our [product care](https://www.patagonia.com/repairs/) page.

Works, not a great shirt tho
This shirt is kind of shapeless and needs another button up top. I have a small chest and this slides back over my shoulders and looks pretty dumpy overall. I am keeping it because I am so desperate for cool shirts in my life with minimal air conditioning, but it falls far short of fitting well or looking nice. It would be really nice to have somet...

Comfortable and Cool
Comfortable and breezy shirt; note that this is not necessarily a sun shirt.

I ordered this in the blue and tan, hoping to use it as a lightweight summer work shirt. Unfortunately both shirts were very sheer, to the point that you could see my belly button and the outline of my bra. Not great for work and not salvagable with a tank top since you would have been able to see the entire outline. The top button was also way too... Read More low. I did really like the fabric but it doesn't matter if the shirt is light and cool if you have to wear another layer underneath.

I love it!
I loved it so much, I bought two more. The first was a medium. Its baggy and hyper modest in cut, yet still attractive. It is a bit see-through in lighter colors. I exchanged the second and third for size small. The small fits me really well! Im 5 4, 34D and imagine I weigh about 135 lbs.
Extremely light weight without being see-through (thank you). Great breeze circulation! Neat, trim cut, great collar, flatters. I'm well over 60 and in shape- appreciate the coverage of the sleeves reaching to mid triceps - give 'em another inch next rev please!
The women's lightweight A/C shirt runs super wide.( I'm 5' 8"/ weight 127 lbs.) I ordered a size small that was gigantic on me. I sent it back. By-the-way, please eliminate women's cropped pants. They inch up on my legs, usually one side more so than the other. I'm thinking about the blue/small white line hemp pants wi... Read Moreth elastic around the legs. Can't remember the name.

I like this shirt so much, I have it in 2 colors. I'm 5'6", 140lbs, athletic build and purchased a small. The fit is still loose and flowy. It is slightly cropped, but it great with high waisted pants/shorts and skirts. The light material keeps me cool in the hot southern months, while still looking put together. It can be wrinkly st... Read Moreraight out of the dryer, so I usually lay flat to dry. It's a go-to shirt for me all summer long.
Great shirt for hiking in hot dry conditions - loose fit lets air flow through. Lack of top button is a strange design feature, lost a star for that. At the moment I am wearing the men's A/C shirt XS in a lovely peach color, ordered for my husband but it ended up being mine! And it does button all the way up when you need it.
Its a basic womens button down which is great since it can be worn on so many occasions. Only gripe is that I wish it had buttons that went all the way to the top like the old Ws Lightweight A/C shirt.
The lack of buttons going to the top gives it a feminine touch if thats what youre looking for. Would prefer the option to button all the way up. ... Read MoreSince Im on the smaller side paired w the box-iness of the shirt (which is a plus for me) makes the shirt too flowy for me to bend over without you seeing everything down the neck. So w that said, Ill always have to wear some sort of layer underneath which defeats the purpose of the piece being light.
As a reference, Im 53, slender, w athletic shoulders. Typically wear an x-small. I have a short torso and found that this was a good length to wear untucked.
I have giant boobs, but am short in stature. I ordered a Medium and it's perfect. - a rarity for me and button down shirts. The buttons do not pull at the front, and it's light and airy. Benefits from light ironing.
This shirt is the best because it has the absolutely perfect texture and weight. Its also cut really well, loose fitting but not boxy. I love it and wear it all the time.
Lovely breezy cute top! I have one in Extra Small and Small. I got the xs because when I got my first one was a size small and it seemed really big. Im kinda chesty and was surprised with how baggy a small was. But its the style and adorable.
Overall, I really like this top. It earns its name of the AC shirt for sure, sooo comfortable and lightweight can hardly feel it. Only complaint is its a little big, I think if I had a bigger bust, shirt would look a little better. In general the shirt doesnt have much shape to it that being said, looks fabulous with denim shorts, or higher wasted ... Read Moreshorts with a French tuck.
One of my favorite shorts even despite it being a larger style/fit
I love this shirt! I saw this in the store and thought the medium might be too big (I'm 5'2") but actually really like the oversized look. I can wear this with a pair of leggings or skinny jeans and it looks both stylish and casual. It's super airy and lightweight - incredibly comfortable. Will be my new go to.
I have last year's "model" in a medium. I ordered this one in a medium and it was WAY too big. I sent it back and got a small & it fits great. It's airy and lightweight and works well with shorts.
Hi John, we're really sorry this ended up being too big. Your feedback has been passed along to the appropriate team. Please don't hesitate to [return](https://www.patagonia.com/returns.html) the shirt if you were looking to do so and haven't already.

Review of gift item, so wont quite line up
This was a gift for a female friend, but report on fit etc. was good. I have Patagonia products from 30+ years ago that still are in great shape, very rarely have I been disappointed. If something goes wrong I send it to you to be fixed :)
Keep up the good work!!
I bought the yellow and a blue, I tried in a M (Im typically M/L) but I liked the length of the L (M would come untucked when I lifted my arms). I love this AC material and I really like the cut, loose but still flattering.
Such a lovely shirt for the heat of summer. The fabric is a very lightweight and breathable blend, and it feels like nothing. Its a relaxed and somewhat oversized style, which suits my preference for comfort. Thanks, Patagonia!
I'm really happy with this shirt. I'm 5'2" and 150 lbs and originally bought a medium (my usual Patagonia size). It was really big! I ended up returning it and getting the small which still fits loose, but more like how it was intended to.
This is a very nice shirt. It's a little see through but I was expecting that so that doesn't matter. I like this shirt a lot, its very comfortable and works great tucked into my jeans at work! It runs a bit big so I could get away with ordering a small next time. The fabric is soft and good quality. 5/5
I love this shirt! I wear it casually, riding my bike to my friends houses, out for summer night drinks... you get the point.

The Lightweight A/C Shirt looks great layered over a white Mainstay Tank. Also, the fabric is light and breezy, which keeps me comfortable and cool when the temperature rises!
Looks like they have modified this shirt from last years model. I have a navy one in size medium. It is a favorite go to shirt for a warm day as it is a very thin cotton/ hemp combo with a slight loose fit on me, but not baggy. The sleeve holes are big enough to be not binding when I reach and possibly the new model holes are slightly bigger. My on...
