Great shirt, but not for girls with long arms

By Cabernet Ranked #193 - Women's Midweight Long Underwear - Tops January 15, 2010

I got this shirt on SAC for a great price and it's super soft and comfortable. I'm just shy of 5'8" and around 125 pounds and I got a small. It fits perfectly (nice and fitted) all around except that the arms are about 2 inches too short. Even with the thumbholes, the cuff of the shirt hits me where a normal shirt would. I tried to just stretch the sleeves out a bit, but I realized after a while that the thumbholes were turning my hands purple in spots from the pressure, and the holes are also a little too small for my thumbs. The shirt is nice and long in the torso, so I'm not sure who they were sizing this thing for.

Even on sale, this is too expensive to pretend that the thumbholes are supposed to be at my wrist, so I'm returning it. I'm not going to exchange it because the medium will be too big in the body. It's a shame because the shirt was really comfortable! If you can hide the thumbholes, it's nice enough for the office.
