Pro 2: The top button and side hem slits. That's right, there's a top button that you'd never find on a typical Aloha Shirt. It's a nod to the first pro, this shirt is more business appropriate. Those side hem slits are there for comfort when sitting. |

Con 1: Definitely less freedom than an Aloha Shirt. It is a regular fit non-stretch polo shirt. |
