Kreativ, originell, sehr gute Qualität.
Ich habe dieses Shirt in V-Neck sowie mit Rundhals für meine meine Wandermädels und mich bestellt. Die Größe fällt etwas grösser aus als normal. Von der Qualität sind die Shirts sehr gut, sie tragen sich sehr angenehm und behalten auch nach dem waschen die Form. Der Kundenservice war sehr gut (wir mussten shirts umtauschen, da wie schon erwähnt die Grösse etwas von andern Shirts abweicht), ich kann die Shirts von Berglust nur weiterempfehlen und würde sofort wieder bestellen!
