Looking for a New T-Shirt Brand with Great Quality and Fit for Slimmer Body Types - Recommendations?

Submitted by No-Neighborhood205 t3_122pdp0 in BuyItForLife

Up until now, I've always purchased basic T-shirts from "Scotch and Soda." They fit me perfectly, look great, and above all, have excellent quality that hardly shows signs of wear even after years. Recently, I wanted to buy some more and discovered that they have changed the T-shirts, resulting in the sleeve length no longer fitting and, unfortunately, a decline in quality. Therefore, I am now searching for a similar brand that offers simple, plain T-shirts for slimmer body types.

Polo Ralph Lauren is my favorite long lasting t-shirt. I’m limited to tall sizes tho.

Honestly in terms of cost per wear the Goodfellow ones from target compete with the most premium tees out there. They fit well too. They're like 6 bucks and better quality/fit consistency than main line j crew and similar brands.

Know that Patagonia has different cuts on their different shirts. The responsibili tees have oddly long sleeves. I think the dude in the video might have been reviewing the organic cotton tees? I don’t think he said.

I bought my first Wool& tee and loved it. The fact that I can wear it multiple days between washes and even when I smell sweaty, the shirt still smells fresh? Totally awesome. They're so expensive but for a shirt I can wear all week that will hold up for longer than a cheap tee, I think it's worth it. Plus biodegradable & sustainable material.

Mack Weldon and Rhône. UNIQLO are solid and are on the cheaper side

I can’t suggest a brand, but I can offer a possible solution. It’s also not a practical solution for most people. But, it’s worth considering if you have a perfect fitting piece of clothing that you can’t replace.

You could clone your T-shirt. Just search YouTube for “cloning clothing” and you’ll get plenty of tutorials. Obviously you’ll need to be comfortable with using a sewing machine or know someone that is, but it’s relatively easy to do.

It’s definitely limited to DIY though, as I suspect asking a local tailor to do this would be costly.
