Dubinik Men's Short Sleeve Button Down Shirt vs Chubbies Men's Friday Shirt

Both are casual short-sleeve button-downs with strong owner ratings, but they suit different buyers. The Chubbies Friday Shirt is the more polished pick: four-way stretch, a secure button collar, a chest pocket and a curved hem, and owners consistently call it soft, breathable and well made. The Dubinik is a plaid, lightweight shirt with a more traditional cut and far fewer ratings, so its track record is thinner. Buy the Chubbies for fit, stretch and finish; buy the Dubinik if you want a plaid summer shirt and prefer a looser, classic look.

• Choose the Dubinik if you want a lightweight plaid short-sleeve shirt for casual summer wear and prefer a traditional, roomier cut.
• Choose the Chubbies Friday Shirt if you want a stretchy, breathable button-up with a secure collar that works from the beach to a casual dinner.
