Haomeli Cotton-Linen Henley Shirt, from $14 (was $17)
Why do we like this deal?
Linen has been a summer staple for thousands of years, but nowadays, it can be expensive and difficult to maintain. What’s worse, some of the most affordable options either don’t do this enough or lie about the fabric mix altogether. Not all is terrible, though – Walmart sells a linen-blend shirt that people really love, and it’s priced at less than $15 right now.
The price of the $17 Haomily Cotton-Linen Henley Shirt is down to $14 at Walmart. This best-selling shirt comes in 11 colors, and nine of them are on sale for $14 or $15. For something so affordable, they’ve earned respectable ratings, with reviews praising their durability and breathability, and, in one case, how it performed during a wedding in Florida.

What shoppers need to know
- Material: 45% cotton, 55% hemp (linen) blend
- Suitable: relaxation
- Care: machine washable
- Best for: Summer Wear, Beach Trips, Daily Wear, Hot Weather Travel
The fabric split here is already noticeable because, with 55% flax, this is truly linen-forward and not just a cotton shirt with a misleading marketing claim. Additionally, the shirt is not made of any polyester, which is rare for similar choices in this price range. The henley placket and rounded hem keep the style clean and classic, with a relaxed cut that leaves room to layer or reduce the shape if you want something more fitted.
Most “linen” shirts in this price range rarely contain enough linen to be truly linen-forward, or they do not contain linen at all and use a linen-like blend. This is one of those rare affordable choices that doesn’t hold up, and the extra cotton will also reduce wrinkles and hold its shape better than a purely linen shirt.

what shoppers are saying
Surprisingly, this shirt doesn’t use polyester, which was a big win for many reviewers. One shopper said, “I really like this fabric because it’s not polyester,” and another wrote, “Super comfortable and washes well.”
Some shoppers liked it as a travel shirt, as this one wrote, “It was light enough to keep me cool and comfortable during my vacation in Thailand.” He adds that it allows sweat to dry and evaporate “even after hours of hanging out at bars and eating spicy Thai chicken.”
The summer-ready Haomeli Cotton-Linen Henley Shirt is available for just $14. But since this is a flash sale, it may end any time, so now is a good time to buy it.
