    Reviews of clothing, boots, and accessories for men, along with style advice and life philosophy. I've been working with my hands for my entire life as a mechanic, tow truck driver, and eventually a licensed electrician. Being a blue collar guy, I look for certain elements in a product: is it durable? Is it high-quality? Will it perform well over its service life? Whether boots, pants, jackets, or tools I believe it's best to buy once and cry once by getting the best you can afford. With so many options these days, choosing the best product can become a difficult decision, but that's where I come in. Helping you stay stylish, rugged, and handsome.
    I don't care where it's made as long as it's made well and allows you to buy fewer, better things.

    This was fun. I would like to make the recommendation that you machine dry the tees to really see what the measurements are afterwards. I think in a day to day family scenario I'm not pulling items out of the washer to hang dry, it's all going in the dryer lol.

    My issue with the higher-priced white tees is I would likely spill something on it and stain it to the point where I would not wear it anymore. This type of issue happens regularly.

      Yep. It’s weird because I’ve got so many other colours I never stain but once it’s white. It’s like a magnet. So I’ve just stopped buying them. The oxy clean etc works if you catch it early but once it sets it doesn’t work at least for me😢 I’ll try bleach. Thx!

    Enjoyed your show. Wanted to mention, that I still look great in my 5 dollar white t- shirt. Honestly, it doesn't matter if it's worn out. It's like a jeans or shoes. Even if the material is not even anymore. If you're trained well, you can put a bag on, looking good.
    But was still funny to watch two guys nearly an hour about such a topic. I like your videos

    I"m not blue collar. I actually live in a city in sales. But I love these videos and am drawn to these boots/denim/rugged shirts. stuff I could wear when I go in the bush on my outdoor adventures but that I never would because they cost so much. Anyways. love the channel and reviews and this dude is a cool cat. Not gonna lie though for basic black/white tees I go ultra cheap H&M brand as I see tee's as largely disposable. But I'll splurge on nicer over shirts.

    31:03 Albert Imperato gives his favorite white tee, and I agree 100%. I'll take the Kirkland tees that cost about $4 a piece over the $100 tees. No t-shirts fit me well out of the box no matter what they cost, so I get them tailored and if you get them tailored they fit perfect. Kirkland tees are soft, heavy, and have high quality collars. When I say they're heavy, I mean heavy, like half a pound. There are $100 tees that don't even come close. They're hands down my favorite tees regardless of cost. You can fight colors besides white and black if you go in the store as well.

    I always bought the Pro Club or the Pro 5 white tees. Always been my favorite white Tees. Love the content you make by the way. It's fun the watch and very educational. 👏🏼

      Pro club and shaka are too tight around my neck and are really uncomfortable for me. I have bought AAA from the liquor stores for a long time too but Staffordshire tshirts with polyester cotton blend is all I wear now from JC pennies.

    A little disappointing that they didn't rate/rank the shirts. It was more about guessing the brand.
