Decent-ish

Quick shipping, sized appropriately, lovely print. The shirt itself is less impressive, with no care label and fabric that looks and feels cheap. Definitely not worth the full price charged (in my opinion), but maybe worth a try if the discount is substantial enough.

First time purchase

I had been wanting to order but hadn't until now because I didn't want to deal with customs and import duties in Germany. After knowing that it's been taken care of by the merchant, I placed my first order just to see how the shirts fit and look. The order arrived today and they actually looked pretty nice and very good quality. I'll definitely consider buying more in the future.

Details not matching price point

Material and design is nice and delivery was good. However, cost does not match overall product. Along the inside of where the buttons are stitched in there is a fabric liner sticking out all the way down, something you should not get with a shirt this price. You do need to go a size up and even then the cut around the arm holes is very tight.
Overall nice product but should be about half the price.

Hi Jonny,

Please could you email us a screenshot of the issue? We're not sure what you're referring to so you may have received a shirt that sneaked past quality control.

My Favourite Shirt!

High quality, lovely material. The soft fabric feels great to wear. It washes well with no shrinking. I took the advice on the website and opted for a size up from my usual. I’m glad I did, the shirt is a perfect fit. This is my new favourite shirt and one I keep coming back to wear. Highly recommended.

Love it!

My wife surprised me with a Playa London beach shirt, and I love it! It's stylish, comfortable, and perfect for any beach outing. The vibrant design and great fit make it a standout piece in my summer wardrobe. Highly recommended!

So far have only bought a shirt from…

So far have only bought a santorini shirt from them but the fabric, design and colour is absolutely amazing and I definitely want to try more items from them. They are a bit more pricey but I think it's well worth it for the quality of the item you get. Also got a small sowing kit with my shirt for any future repairs needed. I had ordered my shirt on etsy and had to size down on the advice of the owner. Not sure if it's the same if you buy on their site or not. Package came quickly and had no plastic used from what I remember.

Edit: have also bought a pair of santorini espadrilles from them as well. Unfortunately I ordered too large and they were kind enough to replace them. Conor from customer services was simply amazing through the whole process. The shoes themselves are really comfy and made of the same lovely materials as the shirt.

Good CS, Average Product

Customer service resolved my concern; however, website needs to be updated to reflect closing of US distribution center. Inconsistent sizing across products is somewhat annoying and overall consistency of fit seems to be poor as well.

Great quality product

Great quality product. Sustainability is a focus for the company, demonstrated in their product materials and delivery packaging. Garment feels quality made, and looks cool.
