The color pallet is always on point because they stick close to neutrals tones while adding new shades every season. They all run slightly long which could be ideal for streetwear styles. They have a "build your own" concept where you choose between three necks: a crewneck, a v-neck, or a henley, and three bottoms: an elongated curve, a split hem, and a classic curve. I do prefer to wear these with joggers or black jeans to make them look more streamlined. The tee sits a bit long and bunches up near my waist and makes my legs look very short when I wear these with cuffed jeans. I opted for a medium as the fit is on the slimmer end. That isn't a bad thing but just something to note compared to the 100% cotton options on this list. The fabric feels very 'performance' oriented in a synthetic way even though it's made to wear casually. The fabric has four way stretch for comfort and doesn't wrinkle easily. It's made of Cuts own fabric called Pyca which is a blend of Cotton, Spandex and Polyester. ![]() Immediately out of the box the t-shirt was insanely soft and bouncy. I decided to go with it just to see what the hype was all about. Just a quick heads up, their marketing is insanely persistent so be prepared for them to take over all your Youtube, Facebook and Instagram ads as soon as you visit their website. Next up we have the Cuts Clothing Split Hem Crewneck tee. Overall for $15 it's still a solid tee for anyone on a budget but considering companies like Bella and Canvas make similar quality t-shirts for $4, I'd rather spend my money there and save up for something a bit higher end. The collar feels pretty weak and although its fine now, I suspect it will develop a bacon neck in a few more washes. They say the fabric feels thinner, fits worse and doesn't hold up as well. ![]() In the review section on Uniqlo's website, customers have said the quality on these used to be very good but has gone down in recent months when the production factory shifted from Cambodia to Vietnam. It compared to a normal J.Crew t-shirt after the wash. I noticed a little bit of shrinkage after a wash and it lost some of it's initial softness. The quality isn't there and this shirt doesn't hold up after a few washes. I got a small and it fit like I'd expect it to.įor a $15 the t-shirt is decent at best. The neck opening is on the smaller end and wears higher than the rest which may be a plus depending on your preference. It hugs the arms well, and leaves room in the stomach but shrinks a bit after a wash. The fit is in between a slim fit and a regular fit. Theres no weight that is advertised but the fabric feels thin in comparison to the others on this list. Extra long fibers that give it more strength, softness and color retention compared to normal cotton. It is supposedly amongst the top 1% of cotton grown in the world. ![]() The shirt is 100% Supima cotton which is just a brand of cotton that is grown in California, Texas, New Mexico or Arizona. I've read high praises for this tee on various subs and decided to give it a shot after seeing everyone swear by them. Lets start with the famous the Uniqlo Supima Cotton Crewneck T-Shirt.

In terms of quality, I like a heavier t-shirt that has a solid collar that doesn't deform and doesn't shrink when it's washed.įor reference: these are all a small or medium. For the feel, I'm looking for something that is soft to the touch and smooth. My definition of a good fit is one that drapes well, hugs the arms and is fitted in the chest but leaves some room in the stomach for after a meal. My look for three things in a perfect t-shirt: the fits, the feel, and the construction. I put them all through their paces and made sure I tested them as thoroughly as I could to find the best t-shirt available right now. A few days filled with reading Reddit posts and blogs and nearly $600 later, I received the top few brand that were mentioned frequently. The goal was to learn what makes a t-shirt great and what would suit me the best. Once I get into something, I dive way too deep which led me to consume any content available about t-shirts. For something that I wear everyday, I wanted to invest in some quality pieces that would not only look good but hold up over time. I walked into my closet to pick one out for the day and realized that majority of the ones in there were deformed, torn, or years old. So we all live in t-shirts.especially in 2020.
