### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review
*by R***R on 10 December 2021*

La playera es perfecta, tela de calidad y estampado genial. Compré dos playeras una para mí y una para un regalo (grande y mediana) Dice que son hechas en Mexico pero por la talla parece ser que no ya que la grande venia muy amplia. La talla mediana me quedó bien, mido 1.80 y peso 94kg. Comparé con otras playeras y las tallas son similares a las playeras de algodón Gildan. También dependerá cómo te gusta que te quede la playera. Fuera de eso lo recomiendo totalmente.
