Floral-Print Shirt Comfort Fit

The Le 31 Floral-Print Shirt comfort Fit combines a straight cut with room to move and a cotton-spandex stretch weave that prevents bagging and button-gap, while the loose fit creates an air gap to prevent fabric cling and allow tucking. The 97% cotton, 3% spandex blend is soft and breathable, resisting moisture cling, and the spandex stretch preserves the air gap through washing and movement. Size codes 155-185 encode collar size, with -LONG options for extended sleeve and body length. However, maintaining the fabric's shape recovery requires cold wash and low heat. Originally priced at $79, this Simons house-brand design is available at $29.95.

The stretch cotton weave resists deep-set wrinkles:

The comfort cut also creates an air gap for heat and moisture dissipation:

And the cotton's moisture absorption, combined with stretch and ease, prevents cling:

Cotton can absorb up to 25% of its weight in moisture before feeling wet, but the stretch and ease of the comfort fit prevent the damp fabric from pasting itself to shoulders and backHow the stretch cotton fabric feels and breathes — moisture_absorption_and_non_cling

Together, these ensure a comfortable, neat look when untucked.

Size selection

Size codes 155-185 encode collar size; -LONG extends sleeve/body length.

Why this is supported

The product's size options use three-digit codes that directly encode the collar size in inches.

Each three-digit variant code corresponds to the collar size in inches with the decimal omitted — 155 is a 15.5-inch neck, 160 is 16 inches, stepping by half inches up to 185 (18.5 inches)What the size codes mean and real measurements — 155_185_numeric_codes

The -REG. and -LONG suffixes denote regular and tall sleeve/body lengths, letting shoppers pair any neck size with their preferred length.

The '-REG.' suffix denotes a regular sleeve and body length, while '-LONG' provides extended sleeve and body measurements for taller builds — shoppers can pair any available neck size with their preferred sleeve length without compromising collar fitWhat the size codes mean and real measurements — reg_vs_long_suffix

The comfort fit's generous cut in shoulders and waist means the neck size is the only critical measurement, and the availability of long sizes makes tucking comfortable.

Because the comfort fit provides generous shoulder and waist room,

the neck size becomes the sole tailored-fit reference pointWhat the size codes mean and real measurements — comfort_fit_interaction

Handfeel and breathability

Blend of 97% cotton with 3% spandex yields soft, breathable fabric that resists moisture cling.

Why this is supported

The fabric's weave uses a 97% cotton, 3% spandex blend that maintains softness and breathability. During wear,

creates an air gap between the fabric and the skin, which allows heat and moisture to dissipateHow the stretch cotton fabric feels and breathes — comfort_cut_and_airflow

, preventing any clammy feeling even when perspiring.

Care

Wrinkle- and bagging-resistant fabric; cold wash/low heat required to maintain shape recovery.

Why this is supported

The stretch weave offers excellent shape recovery: it

resists the deep-set wrinkles that plague 100% cotton after sitting; this keeps the fabric smooth and cool against the skin, maintaining a fresh feel through a long day.How the stretch cotton fabric feels and breathes — wrinkle_recovery_and_texture

. After washing, even the normal shrinkage of cotton does not distort the fit:

. To preserve these properties, the spandex requires cold water washing and low heat drying; high heat degrades the stretch recovery over time.

Airflow

Comfort fit's loose cut creates an air gap that prevents fabric from clinging to skin.

Why this is supported

The comfort fit's roomy straight cut creates an air gap between fabric and skin, which allows heat and moisture to dissipate. This is verified in the deep research:
