I am the original owner of this shirt. I lost weight and dropped from a Large to Medium. I have a huge collection of Ralph Lauren items in Large that I will be posting over time, as well as a large number of Medium items that were meant as replacement items but didn't work out for whatever reason. The shirt is a soft cotton and very comfy. My shirts were always cleaned at an organic cleaners. They were not washed and heat dried. The colors are still original (or very close). It will need a pressing when it gets to you. The shirt is a darker purple. The RL photo is way too light. On my computer, pic #3 is the best representation of color. The pony is a fall green. I have a busy law practice so please forgive any delays in responding to questions or shipping items out.
