The default on the site is olive green but I changed it to brown. I ordered it on Wednesday and received it Tuesday, which is 4 full business days later. The photograph was taken outside where the black ink/plastic looks shinier. It is not shiny in indoor lighting. The shirt itself is American Apparel and is very comfortable.
I should have washed it before photographing it but I was anxious to do the review. You can see a lighter brown rectangle in the photo which I'm sure will wash out (If it doesn't I'll come back and tell you). With black on brown it is hard to see the design unless you're up close, but that's how I wanted it. Also while indoors the brown shirt looks darker as well.
I am extremely pleased with the shirt and I'm sure it will be perfect after the first wash when that slight discoloration goes away. This same design is also available in the less expensive Gildan. I've worn Gildan before and they look and fit good as well. Check out both links if you want different color choices. NOTE: The American Apparel and Gildan browns appear to be different shades on the site. If so, expect Gildan to be a lighter brown.
Update Oct 2011
The original shirt design has now changed. This design now has a red [white] and blue American flag behind Van Buren. It now has an oval surrounding Van Buren instead of a rectangle. Also the printing method is different. It used to be printed with a black "Flex" print, which is what caused the shine in the photo above. It is now a digital print which means that the black shine is gone. The shirt brand is the same so it will have the same sizes and look.
Updated design.
