About a year ago, I researched the most comfortable T-shirt. There were quite a few people who mentioned this specific brand I’d never heard of so I bought about 10 shirts and was sorely disappointed—-I got had by a smart marketer I think.
But a few other people mentioned the Peruvian Pima cotton shirts that are sometimes available at Costco. Generally they show up once per year, in February.
So when they finally showed up, I bought 11. I didn’t realize, until I had these shirts, that I’d never really owned comfortable T-shirts. I’ve worn these every day since I bought them and cannot recommend them enough.
Friends don’t let friends wear crappy cotton.
- the__alchemist 4mo agoWhat I have a struggle with: Choice. Buy a plain well-fitting/nice-material shirt, or buy a tent/schmedium that will pill, but has something cool printed on it.
- dessimus 4mo agoOr you could find a local tailor to adjust any shirt to be well-fitting on you.
- the__alchemist 4mo agoThat's a good idea. I think in this case, the poor fit also correlates with poor material, which is beyond their capability.
- oska 4mo agoIt's my opinion that t-shirts with something printed on the front have never been and will never be cool, so I don't struggle with this choice at all
- reddalo 4mo agoNow I'm not sure if I should believe you or if you're a smart marketer yourself. Plus, why in the world would you blindly buy ten T-Shirts you don't know twice?
- Sebguer 4mo agoi think they would probably shill for something more achievable than a shirt you can sometimes get once a year at costco, haha

- iambateman 4mo agoHa! You can check my comment history, my Costco T-shirt love is genuine. :) The second time, I was in the store and could tell these were legitimately great.
- SirFatty 4mo agoDo you think a 5* rating on Amazon mean the product is good?
- moltar 4mo agoIt’s good for the given price point. You can a six pack of Amazon basic for a low price. They are good. For sleeping.
- HaZeust 4mo agoNext Level Apparel and Target's Goodfellow ones are pretty good, and average ~$10/article. A TON of fashion advice forums and subreddits swear by them as a perfect middle-ground between cost and function.
