Not a Unisex Shirt
This makes for a good free gift, but if you or your partner are not a standard sized large or thinner, this isn't the shirt for you.Published: October 7, 2011
Pros:
Free, durable and made of cotton.
Cons:
Not as large as the size chart suggests. Mainly fit for the female body type.
Anyone who has even looked at Eden’s free gifts in the past few months has seen these T-shirts, but the description is somewhat disingenuous. Specifically, the designation of the shirt as “unisex” is false, as it is clearly a woman’s shirt. The size and shape of the shirt are formatted for the female shape rather than the male, which make the size clearly inaccurate.
The shirt reviewed is a 3X. When ordering it, I assumed it would be loose enough to work as a nightshirt, but I was mistaken. Once I put it on, it clung to my body like a shirt several sizes too small. Before continuing, I usually wear between a XL and 2X shirt size. This shirt fit like a large, or medium. So this isn’t a case of not realizing I am too big for the shirt.
If a 3X is too small for a frame that usually wears between 1-2X, then the smaller sizes are likely too small for most, or any men getting these shirts. This would not be an issue if they were properly labeled as “women’s fit,” but as mentioned; this is labeled as a “unisex shirt.” As it is, this shirt is only wearable for those with short, thin frames; anyone larger will not be able to wear this.
The tightness of the shirt severely limits its use. The print on the shirt, depending on the height of the wearer, may be on, or around the nipples. When it clings to the body, rapid movement, such as exercise will cause chaffing, which would only be exacerbated by sweating. Even sleeping in this shirt the wearer may chaff, which, for those who have not experienced nipple chaffing should know, is most unpleasant.
Nor is the shirt good for the discreet among us. While “I Like Things That Go VROOM” is somewhat subtle, all it takes is a Google search of “Eden Fantasies” to know where the shirt came from. For many, this is not a big deal, but for those who do not want to broadcast that they frequent a sex toy store, I wouldn’t recommend wearing this outside.
For those who can fit into these shirts, it must be noted that it’s a rather good shirt. It’s preshrunk, alleviating worries about further shrinking and it’s made of cotton, both a durable material and safe for those who adhere to Leviticus 19:19. The shirt is soft to the touch and stretchy, making it pleasant to wear, it is short sleeved though, making it more of an inside, or summer shirt.
The shirt itself is not flawed, just poorly labeled. It is several sizes smaller than shirts from other companies of the same size and this difference can make it quite uncomfortable to wear. For people who can wear the shirt, there are no complaints, as it’s soft, durable and stretchy.

#AskEden - EF Shirt Sizes
-
I normally wear a medium or a large. I ordered this shirt in XL so that I could wear it lounging and for sleep. Its so small though. It came about a medium or a small. Im afraid to wash it and see it shrink
-
I have three of these - one large, and two XL. The large was a bit snug, but the XL are fine, and have held up to repeated washings well.
-
There were actually a couple different types of EF shirts. The XL and larger shirts were sized a little smaller than expected, but the L and smaller shirts were right on with their sizes.
There were quite a few forum posts on this.

Material?
-
Why does it seem like I received one shirt made out of a thinner and softer material than the other shirts I received? Has anyone else experienced this?

Quote: Why does it seem like I received one shirt made out of a thinner and softer material than the other shirts I received? Has anyone else experienced this?I have three of these now (all in the same size). Each one is a different material! The first was very thin, stretchy, and really a great shirt since it is sized so small. The second was a very thick material with no stretch to it at all! I cannot even get that one on, even though it should fit exactly like the first one I received. The third shirt is wearable, but again is thicker material than the first, at least this one has a bit more stretch to it than the second one!
I would wager a guess that they are ordering these made up using the "most cost effective" material available, which would account for the varied material (which ever one is cheaper to make that day).
I know that I was happy with the first one, so I ordered more to "modify" some of them as I had seen in a video here. As it stands now...I have one to hide in the closet, one to tuck away for "emergency t-shirt needs", and one I can actually wear and enjoy.
So long as they are offering these free with purchase, I may get a few more (they'll make good rags if nothing else), but I wouldn't spend the $15 asking price on them with the materials being so varied from order to order! -
Good to know, and I hope the one I'll get in my next order will be a soft material.

Thank you for viewing EdenFantasys t-shirt – party costume review page!



Thanks for the review
Thats for the review. Your comment about leviticus cracked me up.
Errr. thanks! I dont know what happened there
great review, thanks for sharing.
Thank you for the review. I feel bad the T Shirt didn't fit you properly. I ordered a Large and normally do not wear mens' cut shirts. I thought this was a mens cut due to the long sleeves, not cap sleeves and lack of scoop or vee neck.
I got the joke about Leviticus (the prohibition about wearing two different fabrics in the same cloth) and thought it was cute.
More info on the feel of the shirt would be good. I have heard they are soft. I will find out in a few days.
I hope the rest of your purchase was fun for you to use.
Thanks for the review
