100% cotton is the only way to go. Natural. Comfortable. durable. breathable. What's not to love?

Is it organic cotton? Was it hand picked for a fair wage using sustainable farming practices?
If not, I’m not interested

Was the petroleum drilled and refined in a sustainable way to make the polyester fibers? Renewable resource versus nonrenewable? I'll stick with my natural sustainably grown cotton.

it's one way to go
I'd argue synthetic is more comfortable, lighter, more durable, lasts longer, looks better and dries faster

Tri blend shirts are the only way to go. I order a bunch from a t-shirt wholesaler all the time because they are soft and very comfortable so this shite weather we have in the south.

I wear a dri-fit shirt under the beefy T during the summer and like it. The beefy lasts really well and doesn't lose shape. I'll have to check those out I guess!

I used to wear these triblend shirts from urban outfitters (they stopped carrying them a few years back) because they just fit and felt better than a 100% cotton shirt.
However, I found that I sweated more in them, and they retained the armpit smell more than a 100% cotton shirt.
My biggest gripe with 100% cotton is they just don’t retain their shape well, whether it’s shrinkage, neckline stretching, etc

I prefer blends. Gone are the days of accidentally drying a 100% cotton shirt and then you can no longer wear it.

Went all cotton and accidentally got a blend from JC Penny’s Stafford brand. Never gone back
So light in the summer. They are awesome and always on sale

In the summer, I find those blended shirts hot AF.

I will never own another 100% cotton shirt.
