is amazing how much better shirts fit when you drop a significant amount of body fat.


I disagree. I'm skinny and it would be so much easier to find a right fitting shirt if I was fat

I need pockets on my shirts these days. Jcrew used to have awesome pocket tees. Soft and well fitting 100% cotton. Now their sizes are all over the place

I remember purchasing some nice Egyptian Cotton shirts at Dillards about 10 years ago. They were nice and soft and held up over the years.



I found that shirt. It was a Murano brand shirt. It was jet black and still held the color. I put it in the back of the closet after I decided to paint with it on.

I’m from the South. Of course I like 100% cotton shirts better. It’s my culture.

I wear a large. If thd shirt is a Gildan, I have to buy a XXL just so that it will go past my belly button after a few times in the dryer. Sad thing is that I don't always know if the shirt im buying is a Gildan.

They still make the best shirt, in my view. The Vintage-wash is the one you want if you can live without pockets. It's more of an old-school garment.

One of my largest clients is also one of the countries largest producers and runs a massive ginning operation. They'll gin nearly 150,000 bales this fall and into the early winter.

I buy cotton.

I like cotton because it is more comfortable.

most comfort color tees are 100% ring spun cotton. I also opt for the abercrombie essential tee as well - they are a little boxier than comfort colors but still comfortable.

Who wants to pay that kind of money for a recycled plastic tee shirt?
