Voyager, I suspect the Vortex will be better as far as pilling.

I just got two Brooks and it’s pathetic how poorly they fit. There’s even a difference amongst the two.

I didn't care for Brooks but Altus was nice. Like a more breathable Tropo

Cirrus- bought one a long time ago and hated the material. Not enough stretch for me so can't give you objective feedback.

Tropo- I believe the material has improved since they cheapest out but the sizing went slimmer around the arms. Slim fit is SLIM. Material is super stretchy, lady's a long time and doesn't wrinkle but it's a thicker shirt. It'll get hot on the summer

Altus- currently my Cur Above favorite. Thinner, breathable, plenty of stretch. Downside is it's slightly less wrinkle resistant than the Tripod but should still easily last you a whole 3-4 day without ironing.

Jetseam

Gold label- bad. It's comfortable but wrinkles extremely easily. I only wear mine for day turns

White label- it's a slightly thinner and slightly more wrinkly than Altus. I give it 3.6 Roentgen: not great, not terrible


Flight- super thin so don't forget your undershirt. Plenty of stretch and breathability but to some people it feels "synthetic". It does have that Under armour feel. Also, frockets are unpleated, it may bother some people.

"Ok meme I just want something like my old cirrus"

Check out Airman. They're in the UK. Shirt felt very good quality and feels like a slightly stretchier cirrus. Just not stretchy enough for me. I need that SSSTTRRREEEETCCHHHH.


Now, don't go spending money on shirts to cheap out on some bulls#!t Hanes undershirts. That's the real game changer. I recommend Uni Qlo Airism polyester undershirts. Seriously breathable and comfortable.

I buy mine when I'm on SEA layovers. The mall attached to our hotel in Bellevue has a store.
