Legend Sweater Shirt - Desert Plains Plaid
The verdict
Fit
Women's Legend typically cuts closer through the waist and shoulders than the men's version. Plaid patterns can visually enlarge—consider your frame and color preferences.
Quality
Same Legend core as the men's line—solid mid-tier construction. Faherty's women's line historically matches the durability of its men's offerings.
Price check
At $149, consistent with men's pricing. Fair for the construction and versatility, though solid-color options may offer cleaner styling value.
Best for
Women mixing down a blazer or up with a sweater; works across temperature swings thanks to the sweater-shirt hybrid cut.
Care
Lay flat to dry; button-ups in plaid patterns especially benefit from careful pressing to avoid wrinkles that distort the weave.

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 button-ups
Owners describe Faherty's button-ups as unusually soft for casual shirts — brushed cottons and linen blends that drape well — with a slightly relaxed cut that most reviewers say runs true to size. Longer-term owners report the fabrics holding up: one reviewer notes a flannel worn over a year with zero pilling. The consistent pushback is price for a casual shirt, and a minority of Trustpilot reviewers report items shrinking after washing according to the care instructions.
- Strengths
- Reviewers repeatedly single out fabric feel — soft brushed cotton and lightweight linen blends that drape better than the price peers they compare against.
- Watch out for
- The main complaints are the high price for casual shirts and scattered customer reports of shrinkage even when care instructions were followed.
- Sizing
- Reviewers report the shirts run fairly true to size with an intentionally slightly relaxed fit, so most advise taking your usual size rather than sizing down.
