*PART 2 IS COMING IN TWO WEEKS!* I'm reading all of your comments and tallying the most mentioned brands until Sunday. If you don't mind commenting on THIS comment and giving a thumbs up if your brand is already mentioned, that'd be awesome! Note: I have 3 other t-shirt ranking videos but will include some if they are repeated/upvoted enough.
@TheIronSnail duluth trading Men's Free Range Organic Cotton Crew Undershirt is a great plain white T. I also love their flannels. They make clothes for "bigger" guys, so I'm biased.
Going off this video it seems a slouchy/unstructured collar may not be your preference but def give James Perse crews a try.. just for how well they drape. Try em in any of their jersey knits (my pref) or their classic. Their crews have the best drape (and fit) of any cotton shirt I own, their non-dark colors fades beautifully, they look good used, new, true to size and oversized by one. The only issues are that the hems & collar needs ironing for a neater look and certain stains can easily leave chemical discolorations. It doesn't have a vintage look you may be looking for but for a modern-style tee its worth trying out.
Michael, my friend. We need a nipple test on these shirts. I'm tired of getting white shirts that can be seen through and no one talks about that enough 😔
Studio d artisan have a basic t that is great it has a tiny us flag on the hem. It’s probably the cheapest loopwheeled t I could find, doesn’t shrink much and no nipples
Jeremy allen white is for me the perfect example 'if it's not broken then you don't change it', a great reference to always wear, also The bear is the best series of 2024
Brooo the bear is easily my favorite series, plus Jeremy's minimalist style is very functional, it combines with some Nike or with a vionentus vn100 wallet, there is no middle ground
You should make a second channel only reviewing white T-Shirts. 25minutes in deepth analysis, How they wrinkel with a jacket, how they work during summer, winter or when it rains. We need more whiter T-Shirt content!
Asket and Lady White Co shirts are some of the most long lasting, well-made, and good-looking shirts I have in my closet. Asket does run more form-fitting than Lady White. Definitely worth the price since both have now been close to 3 years of consistent wear now and they're as good as day 1.
It's absolutely mind-boggling how well their clothing is made! I have almost all my basics from them now. The T-Shirts look on year 3 still better than most T-Shirts from other brands. Even the colored ones hold their color really well. Got their light-blue jeans, made in Japan and Italy. Its by far my favorite jeans of all time. It holds their shape so well. I also got belts, oxford shirts, swim shorts and underwear from them and can't find anything bad about them - except maybe that they don't produce any sizes for larger humans. Can't recommend the brand enough.
Regarding the diagonally ribbed collar of the Real McCoy's tee, the sewist in me guesses that they took their normal ribbing fabric and cut it on the bias (AKA they cut strips of ribbing at a 45-degree angle, rather than parallel or perpendicular to the roll of fabric). This is done a lot to make "edge binding" that will wrap around the raw edges of fabric (like on the inside of an unlined coat). Bias-cut binding stretches more than straight-cut binding, which helps it go around curves (like the neckline) smoothly, without buckling, waving, distorting, etc. Long story short: they probably did it so that the collar would stretch and lay flat against the wearer's neck.
Basically the only t-shirt I wear is the Uniqlo Airism one. Feels super soft and light yet has some nice weight to it + it never seems to wrinkle. Comes in a lot of nice colors as well so my entire closet is filled with them
Personally I run super hot in the Airism stuff, it's not breathable at all in my experience. Much worse than the thick Uniqlo U cotton ones. Funny given that's the entire point. But they are soft and the colours don't fade
They stain so easily. I own one and it's full of stains and I don't even know where they came from. Washed it a million times with different treatments and it's still there. I hear others have the same issues. I absolutely love my Uniqlo crewnecks though (first one mentioned in the video)
I lived in T-shirts for 45 yrs as a surfer. The vintage Stedman Hi Cru was the best. Its now grailed on several websites and is even found on Etsy. I now love synthetic light Ts. My favorites you might look into are the Swiftland shirt in both short sleeve or long at REI, the FLX shirts from Kohls, Eddie Bauer Resolution Ts, Vissla the surfing brand has awesome stuff and Patagonia has both the Capilene and Responsibili-Tee shirts. You won't do yourself wrong with any of these. I myself have at least two or more each of all the above and some in various long sleeve and 1/4 zip versions. I use some when hiking as base layers in winter but they can double as light outerwear in long sleeve over another T when paired with a vest.
@@dongulio5539 because of the oversized fit I actually went down a size. I’m usually large with everything, but for these I went medium. The sleeves come down to just above my elbows and the body is just below my belt and not too baggy. Love the fit, I’d recommend sizing down one :-)
I swear by Uniqlo Supima cotton t-shirts. They legitimately last for years of constant use and washing as long as you always air-dry them, and they are super cheap. One slight problem I have found more recently (I can't be 100% certain, it's just my experience) is that the quality has dipped a bit. The newer shirts I have from that range have shrunk more than some of the ones I've had for many years.
I never imagined i would enjoy a video about plain T shirts. I enjoy high quality everyday items, cotton clothes, made in Japan and USA things, and I enjoyed this video. Now you have me wanting fancy plain T shirts. Something I did not even really know existed before. Lol.
I also think it really helps that Carmy is ripped. You will never look as good in that shirt without the body, the good hair and the overall cinematography and lighting.
That's true of modeling and advertising for nearly all brands. I'd love to justify spending Sunspel money on the basics in my wardrobe, but I know I will never look as good as Daniel Craig in them 😢
I got the Merz Tee earlier this year and I absolutely adore it. Compared to all other tees I’ve ever worn, it feels so effortless and cozy that I actively am looking forward to wearing it whenever I get the chance. The texture is amazing and the little triangle under the armpits really makes all the difference in fit and comfort. I’ll give the asket a try too, but right now I’m completely sold on it. I’d definitely recommend getting the off white one (they call it “natural” on their website)
HELLO, I'M BACK! I have 2 things to say: I did 3 other t-shirt videos before this one with different shirts!* 1. ua-cam.com/video/kXHJQPFuLrE/v-deo.html&pp=ygUWdC1zaGlydCB0aGUgaXJvbiBzbmFpbA%3D%3D 2. ua-cam.com/video/UMccuz0hgBQ/v-deo.html&pp=ygUWdC1zaGlydCB0aGUgaXJvbiBzbmFpbA%3D%3D 3. ua-cam.com/video/C-OZAlpnkTk/v-deo.html&pp=ygUWdC1zaGlydCB0aGUgaXJvbiBzbmFpbA%3D%3D I made a mistake with Whitesville pricing -- it's much cheaper if you get it directly from Japan!
Absolutely love Asket, everything I’ve tried of theirs is phenomenal. What’s not mentioned here is they aim to have a fully traceable supply chain to guarantee ethically made clothes. I came for the ethical non-fast fashion and stayed for the quality.
In my experience, my favourite is Lady White and second Uniqlo. I find if I want a high quality shirt Lady White hits the spot and I know I'm getting quality. Uniqlo provides something that has a more modern and good fit, while for the price offering something comfy that doesn't look like cheap garbage.
Warehouse & Co Lot.4601 slub tee is worth checking out. The texture of the cloth or ‘shadow border’ as the company calls it is sooo good. It’s the best tshirt imo.
Little inside baseball on the Bear shirt; the costume director is on record saying they use Whitesville in addition to Merz B. I have both and prefer the whitesville. The collar and sleeves are brilliant, and they just fit better after washes. Great in grey too, super stark heathering. And their blacks have nice contrast stitching. Good video!
The Uniqlo Crewneck shirt is rly nice but it’s a bit too thick for summer. The Uniqlo Supima is rly light and nice for summer but it doesn’t last long. The Uniqlo Oversized Airism is supposed to be breathable but I’ve noticed it holds the sweat and you’re sitting there with a visibly sweat through shirt.
damn you got me at 10:40 when you depict the coffee scene 😂 somehow i feel you said it with a bit of dramatic sarcasm but i instantly thought damn that’s the tshirt for me!
It's actually funny since a close friend of mine is the only child of Sally Fox! She is an absolute gem of a person and seeing some of her cotton raw in person was stunning! Really a true pioneer that deserves the attention she's getting!
I find after a year or so the armpits are always stained, and therefore, find it hard to go above Uniqlo supima or Spier and Mackay. I'll use the saved cash to buy other pieces that are more interesting.
Armpit staining is caused by your own body or using non-natural antiperspirant/deodorant. It’s not inherently the fault of the shirt. I have multiple decades old white shirts with no stains.
@otterdonnelly9959 they never said it's the shirt's fault ૮꒰ྀི∩' ᵕ '∩꒱ྀིა just that they always have yellow stains lol maybe they only found 1 antiperspirant that smells good
Have you heard of a Brazilian brand called Hering? I highly recommend their 'super cotton' t-shirts. It's their heavy cotton line. They also have cotton+linen mix
Just finished re-watching your 'Selling all my watches for a Daytona video' - amazing to see the Pioneer is still on the wrist. Can't get enough of your videos!
For what it's worth- I strongly prefer the 1950s and 1920s tees from Merz b, I find that the fabrics and fits are both more appealing than the 215 shirt.
Calvin Klein sells 3 packs of crew necks that I own for years at a time. They're beautifully soft, drape well, breathe easily, and the collars haven't sagged on as some are coming up on 5 years old.
Nice one Metallic Snail. Personally I’m into Pro Club. Fitted ribbed robust collar. Large amount of shrinkage but after that it’s a beast. Cheap too. I often ruin my tees just doing everyday things so it needs to be hard wearing and replaceable (easily sourced and financially accessible).
I was looking for the best white crew neck shirt and stumbled upon this video. Learned a lot and has helped me decide on what to buy. Lastly, I subbed! Thanks! :)
I second the nod for Bronson Loopwheeled Tubular Athletic T-Shirt. Hands down, by the far THE BEST value for money loopwheeled t-shirt (although they're not using old timey loopwheel machines, instead they have modern tubular knit process that produces similar fabric but more efficiently). My vote for best overall t-shirt is The Flat Head THC. I've looked at and sampled almost every T on this list and many others, including the Merz B 215 (which I really don't like), and for me, there's nothing that's even a close 2nd, forget even a contender. It's definitely not for everyone, though.
Asket has been one of my favorite brands for years. I got a few of their T-shirts 5 years ago and they have been holding up great. No discoloration, no holes, still fitting the same. The super long egyptian cotton is really nice and durable and Asket is super sustainable. Great all around the board Can't recommend them enough!
Other key tshirts I don't think you've done yet, in order of importance: Sunspel sea island cotton tee (must be sea island) Warehouse 4601 UES Ramayana 3sixteen pima McHill CDLP Industry of all nations clean crew Then pretty much all of the Japanese denim brands have their own very HQ tshirt (Studio d, Stevenson, Real McCoys, Strike Gold, etc, etc)
Great video. I've bought quite a few expensive t shirts in recent years- The Merz B, Whitesville, Studio D'Artisan loopwheel and UES Ramanyana... and i came to the same realisation that my favourite one is the Asket one that I've had for years! Going to stick to that brand going forward.
Hey there, first time watching this channel. Greetings from germany. So let me give you some real german feedback now. This channel features by far the best hair strand wiggling I have ever seen. In my whole life. Ever. It's really mesmerizing. It made me already forget what this video is about. It also made me forget my name and my german identity, too. Please rate this comment ... if you feel the same ... if it's weird in a wiggly good way PS: Have a good day
Definitely check out Warehouse and Jackman, two Japanese brands. Warehouse makes the best loopwheel shirts in my opinion while Jackman is the heaviest and most interesting white shirt I own.
Yea!!!! I’m glad you liked the Lady White!! I’ve tried so many T’s and the Lady white just fits great! And you can wash that thing in hot water and dry it on the hottest setting, and it just won’t budge!( I’ve tried!) I will recommend and very nice tshirt you maybe haven’t heard of, Rowan. Was recommended by a friend, and is super soft and durable. But if you do get one, size down I think, as I’m normally a L and found the M fit best. Cheers buddy!
Asket! I have a T-shirt from 5 years ago & it still looks and feels like new. Still, I think 45€ ($55) is a bit much though I've never seen anything as silky/dense. Also I think I remember seeing a post about how Asket sometimes changes the fit on their products but keeps the product page/name the same. I just bought a bunch of Arket (different company) T-shirts and am a huge fan of the mid-weight (220 gsm) and slightly prefer it to the Asket since it's not as thin. The lightweight is okay but nothing special and heavyweight felt similar to basic Uniqlo stuff. Retail price is 29€, or 25€ with a university discount which is nice. Not sure how they'll hold up long term but I'm hopeful.
algorithm put this on my page and my god i'm glad it did. i've been searching for the perfect t-shirt forever now. found some relatively cheap ones i like (abercrombie essentials) but the collar on them just isn't great. subscribing now!
Really enjoyed this one. I'm an apprentice electrician and I'd love a comparison of heavyweight cotton long sleeve t-shirts. I wish Uniqlo made a long sleeve version of their 100% cotton crew neck
I remember making a t-shirt at textile class in elementary school, it was my best shirt for years before I grew out of it. I would recommend trying to make your own shirt.
Awesome. Been rocking the Uniqlo tees as my daily drivers for the past three years, super solid value! I love menswear but personally cant bring myself to drop a lot of money on tees.
the whitesville 2-pack are locally (California) available for $95 + tax. I actually found an ebay seller who had multiple sizes and colors, and was able to buy my large black 2-pack for under $71 including tax and shipping. At that price point, they are my absolute favorite all around shirt. my favorite fitting tshirt (I'm a very slender build) is the Samurai jeans 2 pack shirts. (But, again, bought in black) I do also think that it takes closer to 10 hot washes/hot dries to really see the full shrinkage of a (unwashed cotton) shirt. Both brands I mentioned are past that point, and the measurements (especially length) are now spot on perfect for me.
my take on some uniqlo t-shirt 1. Their supima-line are soft but it will got fade and sag quite fast (compare with other brand cotton-T I have in the same prior) 2. (Some) Uniqlo U T-shirt hold up much better than their supima-line. My general rule when buy Uniqlo, stay away from any 100% cotton that stretch.
It's so funny seeing Velva-sheen as a quality menswear brand now. I'm from Cincinnati and my dad would always joke Velva-sheen was where guys would go to buy "factory seconds" of shirts. For example you could buy like P&G Bowling Team shirts that had an off label for like a few cents. His school would have contests on the most ridiculous.
While doing some back to school shopping for my daughter at Old Navy, I ended up coming across a nice V-neck. Works well as both a shirt and under shirt. Great quality, nice fit and perfect weight.....oh, and nicely priced.
Michael, how have you never reviewed the Warehouse & Co Slub Cotton tee? I first tried one on in the Santa Fe Standard & Strange, and the collar alone was enough to win my heart. Absolute love at first wear.
The most underrated shirts are the arpenteur pontus t-shirts, they're definitely different but I wish more people reviewed them because they are the only thing I wear in the summer.
For me personally Sunspel has and continues to craft the best t-shirts available to men. The Fabric and construction methods result in a garment that wears extremely well and reserves its shape for decades. I personally own around two-dozen of them, and have never had a problem with them. Made in England too.
I am always on the hunt for a good quality white tee, loved the video. A personal favorite is “basic rights” unfortunately they stopped production to do other things (sad) but bought multiple before they closed if you can get you hands on one would recommend
I was thinking about buying some Uniqlo shirts, but then your review a year ago talked me out of it. Now I'm having a tough time reconciling what you said in that review with what you said in this one.
Try the “Regular Fit 9.3 oz Jersey Crewneck Tubular T-Shirt” by Time Catcher that you can buy through olderbest. It’s amazing value for money - £18 and it’s heavyweight, tubular knit and allegedly loopwheel but I’m not to sure if it actually is or not. I’ve had mine for about a year and it only gets better with each wash. For sizing I’m 6ft1 and 86kg and a L is great - but the customer service team is brilliant with advice as the sizes are primarily for a Chinese customer base
I'm going to check out your other T-shirt videos right now. But I honestly can't believe that Hanes beefy tea didn't make it to this list. It is I swear the best T-shirt I've ever owned for the price. It's nice heavy durable comes in pocketees I love it.
2 suggestions for the next video: COS classic t-shirt (insanely soft and luxurious, and yet affordable), and Brunello Cucinelli's t-shirt (worn by Mark Zuckerberg along with others). Great video, just subscribed! Keep it up!

I haven't tried them myself but I'd love to see a review of the Samurai plain crew neck T shirt (the ones in the 2 pack)

Do you mind sharing your height and weight? It would help me decide what size I should get. Thanks!
Look at that subtle off-white coloring. The tasteful thickness of it. Oh my God, it even has a watermark...

vouching for this
Studio d artisan have a basic t that is great it has a tiny us flag on the hem. It’s probably the cheapest loopwheeled t I could find, doesn’t shrink much and no nipples
The bigger sizes will have side seams through
I surgically remove both my nipples. No longer need to worry about see through problem.

I made a mistake with Whitesville pricing -- it's much cheaper if you get it directly from Japan!
Bronson didn't make the cut I take it? And have you ever checked out House of Blanks?
I literally watched all three just today and now you upload a 4th one. Hilarious.
I'm currently researching the perfect T
Sunspel? British brand…..Sea Island cotton etc?
What about Faherty, Onia, Madewell, or Gandy Wellwear?
Thoughts on Drake's London Hiking T-shirts?
Great to see Asket getting such a resounding review. I’m literally obsessed with these t-shirts.
Their oxford shirts are top notch too. Had a belt from them that only lasted a year however.
320gsm - 400gsm for a shirt is usually regarded as the best for any weather, winter being the most suitable
Pure Blue Japan makes my favorite T-shirt fits and fades beautifully
Plus the roping fades on the hems is pretty cool

I find after a year or so the armpits are always stained, and therefore, find it hard to go above Uniqlo supima or Spier and Mackay. I'll use the saved cash to buy other pieces that are more interesting.
Switch from antiperspirant to plain deodorant to avoid yellow staining
Armpit staining is caused by your own body or using non-natural antiperspirant/deodorant. It’s not inherently the fault of the shirt. I have multiple decades old white shirts with no stains.
Or use a spray antiperspirant and let it dry
@@genegray82 this and some oxyclean foam agent or something
@otterdonnelly9959 they never said it's the shirt's fault ૮꒰ྀི∩' ᵕ '∩꒱ྀིა just that they always have yellow stains lol maybe they only found 1 antiperspirant that smells good
Have you heard of a Brazilian brand called Hering? I highly recommend their 'super cotton' t-shirts. It's their heavy cotton line. They also have cotton+linen mix
In addition to the Merz, Carmy also wears the whitesville shirts!
And at least one other actor is wearing the Velva Sheen. I think the guy that plays Marcus?
Just finished re-watching your 'Selling all my watches for a Daytona video' - amazing to see the Pioneer is still on the wrist. Can't get enough of your videos!
My favorite T shirts are American Giant, Brave star, Goodwear and Camber. They each offer light and heavy options.
One of my favorite Ts ever was a uniqlo supima cotton white t /shirt. It just kept getting better and the fit became perfect over the years.
I heard that fit and quality is much worser than few years ago
@@maddoxthegreatcanecorso7150 and much more expensive than they were just a few years ago too.
you’re literally my comfort person i love you *amzclothes* !
hanes comfort fit BABY!!! 60%rayon 40%polyester = the softest shirt, and sorta thin so super breathable and light
I don't want a shirt that's not fully cotton
For what it's worth- I strongly prefer the 1950s and 1920s tees from Merz b, I find that the fabrics and fits are both more appealing than the 215 shirt.
Try the bronson MFG 'loopwheel' t-shirt, great value imo
Any pilling?
Calvin Klein sells 3 packs of crew necks that I own for years at a time. They're beautifully soft, drape well, breathe easily, and the collars haven't sagged on as some are coming up on 5 years old.
P&Co Crafted Heavyweight T-Shirts are good. I like them same as UNIQLO
Camber, Outlier, Unbound Merino, Western Rise, Flathead, Sunspel's Sea Island Cotton, Icebreaker, Patagonia Capilene Cool, Taylor Stitch Heavybag
Nice one Metallic Snail. Personally I’m into Pro Club. Fitted ribbed robust collar. Large amount of shrinkage but after that it’s a beast. Cheap too. I often ruin my tees just doing everyday things so it needs to be hard wearing and replaceable (easily sourced and financially accessible).
I was looking for the best white crew neck shirt and stumbled upon this video. Learned a lot and has helped me decide on what to buy. Lastly, I subbed! Thanks! :)
I second the nod for Bronson Loopwheeled Tubular Athletic T-Shirt. Hands down, by the far THE BEST value for money loopwheeled t-shirt (although they're not using old timey loopwheel machines, instead they have modern tubular knit process that produces similar fabric but more efficiently). My vote for best overall t-shirt is The Flat Head THC. I've looked at and sampled almost every T on this list and many others, including the Merz B 215 (which I really don't like), and for me, there's nothing that's even a close 2nd, forget even a contender. It's definitely not for everyone, though.
I like the old made in America Buck Mason Field spec shirts, they are heavy AF. Great base layer for winter under flannels
Asket has been one of my favorite brands for years. I got a few of their T-shirts 5 years ago and they have been holding up great. No discoloration, no holes, still fitting the same. The super long egyptian cotton is really nice and durable and Asket is super sustainable. Great all around the board
Can't recommend them enough!
Other key tshirts I don't think you've done yet, in order of importance:
Sunspel sea island cotton tee (must be sea island)
Warehouse 4601
UES Ramayana
3sixteen pima
McHill
CDLP
Industry of all nations clean crew
Then pretty much all of the Japanese denim brands have their own very HQ tshirt (Studio d, Stevenson, Real McCoys, Strike Gold, etc, etc)
The wonder looper double heavy weight is easily the nicest shirt out there. Waiting on my triples
Would be good to see Allevol. Both their standard ones and, if you want to try a different fit, the permanent style collab/version
Great video. I've bought quite a few expensive t shirts in recent years- The Merz B, Whitesville, Studio D'Artisan loopwheel and UES Ramanyana... and i came to the same realisation that my favourite one is the Asket one that I've had for years! Going to stick to that brand going forward.
Hey there, first time watching this channel. Greetings from germany. So let me give you some real german feedback now. This channel features by far the best hair strand wiggling I have ever seen. In my whole life. Ever. It's really mesmerizing. It made me already forget what this video is about. It also made me forget my name and my german identity, too.
Please rate this comment
... if you feel the same
... if it's weird in a wiggly good way
PS: Have a good day
Definitely check out Warehouse and Jackman, two Japanese brands. Warehouse makes the best loopwheel shirts in my opinion while Jackman is the heaviest and most interesting white shirt I own.
Yea!!!! I’m glad you liked the Lady White!! I’ve tried so many T’s and the Lady white just fits great! And you can wash that thing in hot water and dry it on the hottest setting, and it just won’t budge!( I’ve tried!) I will recommend and very nice tshirt you maybe haven’t heard of, Rowan. Was recommended by a friend, and is super soft and durable. But if you do get one, size down I think, as I’m normally a L and found the M fit best. Cheers buddy!
Asket! I have a T-shirt from 5 years ago & it still looks and feels like new. Still, I think 45€ ($55) is a bit much though I've never seen anything as silky/dense. Also I think I remember seeing a post about how Asket sometimes changes the fit on their products but keeps the product page/name the same.
I just bought a bunch of Arket (different company) T-shirts and am a huge fan of the mid-weight (220 gsm) and slightly prefer it to the Asket since it's not as thin. The lightweight is okay but nothing special and heavyweight felt similar to basic Uniqlo stuff. Retail price is 29€, or 25€ with a university discount which is nice. Not sure how they'll hold up long term but I'm hopeful.
I find your videos super entertaining to watch. You just have that natural personality that works for the camera. Keep up the great work, Michael!
The Uniqlo t-shirts are awesome. So very soft and great looking. They do get some fuzz in the surface after many washes but the shape stays perfect.
algorithm put this on my page and my god i'm glad it did. i've been searching for the perfect t-shirt forever now. found some relatively cheap ones i like (abercrombie essentials) but the collar on them just isn't great. subscribing now!
Hello Michael , Ralph Lauren makes a decent Tshirt- it’s the shirts with the multi colored logo . Bought a few , silky texture.
New Medium seemed like a winner to me. Perfect fit and great texture
Really enjoyed this one. I'm an apprentice electrician and I'd love a comparison of heavyweight cotton long sleeve t-shirts. I wish Uniqlo made a long sleeve version of their 100% cotton crew neck
Man I have searched for reviews after after reviews. This is exactly what I was looking for
. Thank you
I remember making a t-shirt at textile class in elementary school, it was my best shirt for years before I grew out of it. I would recommend trying to make your own shirt.
Goodfellas 4 pack from: Target is the best value I’ve found.
Slim fitting - longer length. $18
Awesome. Been rocking the Uniqlo tees as my daily drivers for the past three years, super solid value! I love menswear but personally cant bring myself to drop a lot of money on tees.
You can also checkout Maison Cornichon, tee shirts made in France with weaving machines from the 60s.
the whitesville 2-pack are locally (California) available for $95 + tax. I actually found an ebay seller who had multiple sizes and colors, and was able to buy my large black 2-pack for under $71 including tax and shipping. At that price point, they are my absolute favorite all around shirt.
my favorite fitting tshirt (I'm a very slender build) is the Samurai jeans 2 pack shirts. (But, again, bought in black)
I do also think that it takes closer to 10 hot washes/hot dries to really see the full shrinkage of a (unwashed cotton) shirt. Both brands I mentioned are past that point, and the measurements (especially length) are now spot on perfect for me.
Been really liking both Reigning Champ, and Tomorrow's Laundry shirts. Definitely check those out
my take on some uniqlo t-shirt
1. Their supima-line are soft but it will got fade and sag quite fast (compare with other brand cotton-T I have in the same prior)
2. (Some) Uniqlo U T-shirt hold up much better than their supima-line.
My general rule when buy Uniqlo, stay away from any 100% cotton that stretch.
I picked up the Hanes Beefy white blanks based off a recommendation of yours from a previous video. For the price, it’s my favorite.
"this only happens when I'm having guests" bro you're so funny instant sub
As someone with larger frame I love the cut of Alo t-shirts. There’s an extra panel on the shoulders that makes them hang so well on me.
It's so funny seeing Velva-sheen as a quality menswear brand now. I'm from Cincinnati and my dad would always joke Velva-sheen was where guys would go to buy "factory seconds" of shirts. For example you could buy like P&G Bowling Team shirts that had an off label for like a few cents. His school would have contests on the most ridiculous.
While doing some back to school shopping for my daughter at Old Navy, I ended up coming across a nice V-neck. Works well as both a shirt and under shirt. Great quality, nice fit and perfect weight.....oh, and nicely priced.
Michael, how have you never reviewed the Warehouse & Co Slub Cotton tee? I first tried one on in the Santa Fe Standard & Strange, and the collar alone was enough to win my heart. Absolute love at first wear.
Samurai Jeans (SJ2PST-CREW 2 Pack Tee), Sunspel (Riviera Midweight T-shirt) and Velva Sheen (Rolled Regular Short Sleeve Tee)
Great video. UK's BAM bamboo cotton t-shirts are the way to go!!! £29 each and soft, best quality and comfort
Try Enkalda. I have many of their shirts and they are awesome for me. Made in the USA - 7.5 oz cotton
LVC vintage pocket Tshirt is my favourite basic T, but their price has gone crazy, so that Velva Sheen one is my go-to now
The most underrated shirts are the arpenteur pontus t-shirts, they're definitely different but I wish more people reviewed them because they are the only thing I wear in the summer.
We love to see a short-sleeve henley style t-shirt review. I've been on the hunt for weeks.
For me personally Sunspel has and continues to craft the best t-shirts available to men. The Fabric and construction methods result in a garment that wears extremely well and reserves its shape for decades. I personally own around two-dozen of them, and have never had a problem with them. Made in England too.
Hey, enough about Tshirts, is that a Hamilton Khaki Pilot Pioneer on your wrist? Do a wristwatch video. Good channel. Keep it up!
I am always on the hunt for a good quality white tee, loved the video. A personal favorite is “basic rights” unfortunately they stopped production to do other things (sad) but bought multiple before they closed if you can get you hands on one would recommend
I was thinking about buying some Uniqlo shirts, but then your review a year ago talked me out of it. Now I'm having a tough time reconciling what you said in that review with what you said in this one.
Try the “Regular Fit 9.3 oz Jersey Crewneck Tubular T-Shirt” by Time Catcher that you can buy through olderbest. It’s amazing value for money - £18 and it’s heavyweight, tubular knit and allegedly loopwheel but I’m not to sure if it actually is or not. I’ve had mine for about a year and it only gets better with each wash. For sizing I’m 6ft1 and 86kg and a L is great - but the customer service team is brilliant with advice as the sizes are primarily for a Chinese customer base
Could you review the Loro Piana Gift of Kings tshirt? It’s only $2,300 per shirt 🤷🏻♂️
Merz B and SDA have the best quality and fit for those with a fitness routine. Awesome vid.
I'm going to check out your other T-shirt videos right now. But I honestly can't believe that Hanes beefy tea didn't make it to this list. It is I swear the best T-shirt I've ever owned for the price. It's nice heavy durable comes in pocketees I love it.
Outstanding commitment to a very worthy cause
2 suggestions for the next video: COS classic t-shirt (insanely soft and luxurious, and yet affordable), and Brunello Cucinelli's t-shirt (worn by Mark Zuckerberg along with others). Great video, just subscribed! Keep it up!
American Giant Everest shirt if you want to try another heavy option. Their regular heavyweight shirts are solid too.
Great vid. If you revisit this concept Kith is a brand to consider. T-shirts 2 for 60 and they have some $60 t-shirts.
Bro, American Giant slub. I've been wearing these exclusively for years. Bomb-proof, perfect fit. Try one. ✌
I like buying most of my clothes from Uniqlo then moving to Asket whenever I have the funds to upgrade my (mostly) capsule wardrobe.
You should check out colourful standard. Highly underrated brand and incredible t shirts. They’re the best I’ve ever tried
those supima cotton uniqlo shirts used to be $10 ~6 years ago. should have stocked up
Now the airism basic tee is $15 and supima is $25 :(
