Material Quality

Pros:

  • "Shirt is nice quality for the money can't complain at all."
  • "It's still pretty well made and there's nothing wrong with these shirts."
  • "These tee shirts are made with a good heavy material that holds its shape."
  • "All items were great quality. Good weight to the material."
  • "It’s soft, nice weight and holds the nice black color well, even after multiple washings."
  • "Surprised by the good quality. Very good quality. Good price point."
  • "Color is a deep black well dyed! Does not feel itchy at all. Good poly cotton blend."

Cons:

  • "The thinnest black t shirt I have ever purchased. It almost like veil material its so incredibly thin."
  • "Anyone who says these hold their size after being washed and dried must not be paying attention. These shrink SIGNIFICANTLY in the neck, on the chest and in length when washed and dried ONE TIME."
  • "Really it's my fault for not checking the fabric. These are nearly 50/50 cotton and poly and DO NOT breath."
  • "The fabrics is very light weight. I expected more of a thicker cotton."
  • "VERY THIN MATERIAL AND CHEAP AT THAT, UNSATISFIED WITH PRODUCT."
  • "Also, the material is thinner than it used to be."
  • "These T shirts are so thin, very expensive for the quality of these T-shirts."

Fit and Comfort

Pros:

  • "Fits as expected. No shrinkage or misshaping."
  • "The shirt fit him just right AND was comfortable!"
  • "I particularly enjoy these shirts. They're similar to fit and feel of Under Armour's Charged Cotton shirts."
  • "I love the fit of these shirts."
  • "Fits perfectly on me. I was looking for a shirt that fell a little under the belt but wasn’t too big on the top."
  • "The range of sizes from S to 4X ensures a perfect fit for everyone."
  • "These fit perfect! I'm one of those tall guys with a longer than average torso so most shirts after one wash become a mid-drift."

Cons:

  • "It was too big, and too uncomfortable. Threads unraveling left and right."
  • "First off it's very scratchy. The neck is way too big so it shows your undershirt."
  • "Very lightweight and the size runs small."
  • "I purhcased a few of these. Decent fit, but sizes are somewhat unreliable; some are a bit loose and long, some are tighter and shorter, despite saying they're all the same size."
  • "Ordered white shirts a while back. Fit perfect. Ordered colored shirts and they’re all too small."
  • "I've been buying these shirts for years, but the last ones I bought were MUCH thinner and MUCH smaller than previous ones."
  • "The fit was very small to size. Stretchy athletic material but go up at least 2 sizes."

Durability

Pros:

  • "I have ordered many of these through the last few years."
  • "I bought a bunch of these as a cheaper option to create shirts for a family trip last year. It's been almost a year and these shirts have lasted through thick and thin."
  • "I have 5 of these and I laundry them every week and they are still holding up. No wrinkles! No wear and tear!"
  • "For as cheap as you can buy these shirts for, they hold their shape and colour after multiple washes."
  • "These are the best tee shirts on the market. They hold their color as long as you wash them in cold water and very little shrinkage after the first wash."
  • "I bought this shirt for my entire family to use for a Christmas party. Everyone in the family liked the material and it wasn’t too tight."
  • "Very comfortable shirt for working out. They did not shrink in the wash / dry process and are holding up well to frequent use."

Cons:

  • "So far I have worn three and two of them have come apart under the arm."
  • "These shirts, however, are made with very thin material. I can't imagine they would hold up through a couple of wash cycles, so I returned them."
  • "Quality is substandard due to manufacturing flaws."
  • "I ordered a black one of these just to try out the brand. After just two washes, a giant hole formed in the armpit."
  • "I wore the grey one once and developed holes in the front from just one day of normal wear."
  • "This t-shirt has noticeably thinned after just a few washes."
  • "Returning - I opened it on Halloween for my husbands costume and couldn’t use it because there were little holes all on the front and back."

Value for Money

Pros:

  • "Worth the price."
  • "Great shirts! Perfect size."
  • "I'll be buying more."
  • "I bought this to work out in. It’s lightweight but not clingy I hate clingy material and I prefer men’s T shirts over women’s because they are longer and sleeve length is better."
  • "Bought for my husband in xxl because he likes the shirts loose. Great color, well made. Holds up well laundering."
  • "I was looking for inexpensive over size t shirts to sleep in, and these were just fine. As a bonus, the material is super soft!"
  • "I will buy these again."

Cons:

  • "Please do not waste your money, even at the prices offered."
  • "You flat out lie about the cotton poly blend. You claim 60% cotton 40 % polyester my shirts show very clearly 53% polyester 47% cotton."
  • "Purchased white tee for father in law. The shirt was very dingy, loose and used looking."
  • "They changed the material to be more cost effective, less threading. Therefore, you can see through these shirts now."
  • "These shirts are very comfortable And cool in this Extreme Heat that most of the country is under."
  • "Just what the Headline says.... YUCK!! These shirts are easily prices double what they should be."
  • "The t-shirt... was a lint magnet."
