I just received 2 of these shirts, and it's too early to write a review. However, I noticed the seams on the side of the shirt that run from the underside/armpit of the sleeve down to the bottom hem are not the same on each side. One runs down the side much more than the other side, which seems to curve more toward the front of the shirt. In other words, they aren't symmetrical. It doesn't affect the performance of the shirt, it's just asthetics. Has anyone else noticed this?

Yeah, mine are way off too. Canada is the new China... Anyway, for their intended purpose (baselayer/summer riding shirts) I could care less. I have not looked at all of mine but the red L I'm wearing as I'm typing this is way, way off. The left seam runs under my left arm while the right seam runs way to the front on the right.

You must have gotten an irregular. Return it.

I haven't particularly noticed that but I can also see how it would be probable. When bulk amounts of clothing are made, chances are you'd see more vary from each other than not. If one side of the shirt is cut in an uneven way, you could return/exchange it with Bakcountry and most likely that replacement will be in better condition.
