 T-shirt question...

At the risk of sounding completely metro, I need some help finding some decent t-shirts. I've tried the cheap-o multi-pack ones and found them lacking, both in length and thickness. I've tried Duluth Trading Company's long t's and found them to be too long. I need a quality t that's just a little bit longer than your average Hanes/Fruit of the Loom and made with thicker material.

The Land's End tall size T-shirts are what I prefer. They are long, however, and may be too long for you.

For those like me, whose height is mostly from the waist up, I highly recommend them. Very high quality, and well cut for short legged tall people.

Target's Mossimo line of shirts.

Good looks, good quality, and priced right.

+1. Nice and thick. The standard for screen printed Frat Party t-shirts everywhere.

I'll have to try those.

Edit:

Where is a good store to buy those at? I need to try some before I buy online.

I find T shirts with the front pocket a little thicker

Carhartt Front Pocket Ts

I'll wait for them to go one sale for $10 and buy enough for a year.

I wear Reebok t-shirts. I get them from the Tanger outlet near me when they have their back to school sales. I wear a large but I buy X-extra large just because.

I always buy one size up and it helps. Length is sometimes a problem, but a test fit usually solves that problem. Find what works, stock up and run it.

I like the Costco t-shirts for winter. They are thicker and I have not shrunk one yet

+1 !!! There really do fit nice and they are thick enough that I can even CCW with their white t-shirts.

Yeah, that's the problem. I can't find an in-between. They're either too short, or in the case of Duluth Trading Co's, too long. And, I don't like pocket t's.

I'll second this. Picked up a few plain ones for $7 on sale and are a perfect fit for me.
