The verdict
Fit
Long-sleeve rash guard fit—fitted through the body for water performance, likely with thumb holes or fitted cuffs. Sizing typically runs true to athletic/swim standards.
Quality
Nylon rash guard construction is durable for regular water exposure. At this price, expect functional durability rather than fashion-forward finish. Vietnam-sourced.
Is the price fair?
At $128 USD, this is at the premium tier for a swim/rash-guard shirt. Price reflects technical function (UV protection, quick-dry) beyond casual wear.
Best for
Men who want a reliable rash guard for regular water sports or sun-protective swimming.
Care
Rinse with fresh water after salt water; hang-dry to avoid excessive heat wear on elastic.
Fit check: Faherty
True to sizeFaherty fits true to size with a deliberately relaxed cut — take your usual size, and only size down on the roomiest dresses and boxy tees if you're between sizes.
Owners and hands-on reviewers consistently report Faherty running true to size, with the slight ease built into the cut rather than a sign to size down. The relaxed silhouette shows up across lines — tees are described as boxy-but-not-oversized, pants run about a half-inch generous in the waist (not enough to change size), and some dresses and boxier tops read roomy enough that between-sizes buyers go down. A minority of owners find pieces large and boxy at their usual size — one Reddit user had a medium tailored — and a few customer reviews flag garment-to-garment inconsistency, but that's the exception in the feedback, not the pattern.
Sizing advice: Order your usual size across the line; if you're between sizes, size down only on roomy dresses and boxy tees — everywhere else stay true, since the relaxed drape is intentional.

What owners report about Faherty t-shirts
Owners mostly praise the fabric on Faherty's organic-cotton tees as soft with good drape, and independent reviewers describe the cut as relaxed without being oversized. The recurring practical complaint is that the material can stretch out over a day of wear and needs a tumble dry rather than air drying to recover its shape. A minority of owners also find the slubby texture rough and question paying around sixty dollars for a basic tee.
