No disrespect to Ump-Attire for carrying it, but why are we continuing to propagate the same antiquated, obsolete crap? 

If this had been navy-with-red-panels, or navy-with-red-placard, then we’d be talking. 

Otherwise, if just the same “traditional” navy-with-white-&-red stripe 1980s Patriot Postal Worker tripe? Hard pass.

Lemme try that again...yes, of course we all need to evacuate our bowels over the colors...that's a given.

Does anyone have anything to contribute regarding the cloth, weave, stitching, quality, etc.?

This is from memory and a pre-production sample so forgive me if anything is incorrect. Hopefully some who has it can chime in or correct me if I am wrong.

- I believe it was a tricot weave, weight was somewhere between 150-170gsm so lightweight.

- The shirts had side panels with either a loose weave polyester mesh or poly/spandex. This went from the bottom hem to around the chest.

- Quality was pretty standard for a shirt in this price range. Nothing stood out to me that I specifically questioned.

- I do recall the chest pocket being rather narrow, but I don’t know what it actually measures out to.
