I asked you who makes the PERFECT white t-shirt. This is what you said.

[@Christinamychas]

Please drop your fave plain white tee brand and why!

[@kaldezar]

Gildan G2000, 100% US cotton and only $2-3 each, comes in 60 colours including white. All these other T shirts are way overpriced for what is basically a commodity item.

[@cristinalarue1111]

Would seriously love a video like this on white button down shirts. I've tried two brands so far, both see through!

[@ladybirdf868]

Love h&m oversized linen

[@laurenlindsey]

abercrombie oversized button up. i wear it constantly and it's lasted for years, still good quality

[@emmeau]

GU has some good ones right now

[@Septembergirl10]

J crew cotton gauze or j crew factory cotton gauze, I wear it all year round

[@kchill9395]

Love to see someone talking about fashion from a Canadian perspective - taking shipping cost and tax and duties into consideration! 🤩

[@ckveggie6006]

Totally agree.

[@margeling4718]

I like the Uniqlo tee and have it in multiples of several colors with emphasis on black, white and navy. It washes and dries beautifully and I appreciate the weight of the fabric.

[@TG81]

Lands’ End Supima cotton tees are my absolute favorite. Opaque, great quality, wash and dry well, and come in v neck, crew neck, short sleeves, and long sleeves. 🤍

[@cynthiaprice5284]

This brand support very Right wing government. That is a definite no for me .

[@kyrakytana]

I'm very partial to both the Arket and COS shirts, but then I like the heavy and structured feel of a thick T-shirt and I'm in Europe, where they are actually quite affordable (39€/29€). I have also had mine for 3+ years and they are still looking great. BTW Thank you for the bra test. For me that's the most important factor when buying white tops.

[@Future-zx9ts]

I bought the COS T-shirt a few years ago, and I LOVE it. Of course, I live in the US, so it was about half the price for me. 🙃 I love how heavy-weight it is, and it looks great when I wash on cold, line dry, and then throw in the dryer for 5 minutes with a damp cloth. Comes out looking awesome. Thanks for the review, because a great white tee is hard to find! Guess I need to try out the Everlane one!

[@Christinamychas]

The cos one is very premium, thick and lovely! Everlane I def prefer for everyday where I’m not scared to get it dirty or beat it up! If that helps more ❤

[@alexandrab.7452]

Would love to see other videos like this! Trousers, jeans, blazers, etc would all be great.

[@mj_thebookwyrm]

My favorite is actually the Amazon Made For You Tee. It’s inexpensive but it’s custom fit to your measurements and you can give it all sorts of little customizations like the length, the sleeve length, the neckline, etc. there’s two fabric choices, 100% Pima cotton and tri-blend cotton, and a few different color choices. I don’t know anything about sustainability with Amazon clothes but this tshirt is my absolute favorite and I wear it all the time, and it’s $25 which is so worth it for the customization

[@auroraa7673]

do they still make this? i’ve been trying to find it and i can’t

[@mj_thebookwyrm]

@@auroraa7673 I don’t think they do it anymore. Which is a shame cause it was kinda epic

[@SueRosalie]

I've been wearing the Uniqlo t shirts, the fabric is nice thick quality and very durable

[@beautyamongashes8378]

Good olde Hanes men’s v neck have been my go-to since the late 90’s!

[@katemacri9406]

I love Banana Republic's Cozy Slub t shirt - it's a little sheer, but it's 100% cotton and the softest tee I've ever worn. Also, the cut is perfect for my body type. I don't look great in super boxy, slouchy styles, so I love the way BR's cozy slub tee skims my curves and looks fitted without being skintight. Because the fit is so perfect, it looks amazing with every single pair of jeans I own and wear on a regular basis: skinny, bootcut, flare, and straight. Literally the perfect tee for me.

[@Nicole_elizabeth1561]

I found the Cos and Arket shirts to look the best. I like how the heavy fabric doesn't appear wrinkly like the others.

[@jessicap8468]

Love this type of video! Would love to see more comparisons (tank tops, sweatshirts etc.). I'm from Toronto as well and recently lived in Sweden. It breaks my heart knowing how expensive brands like COS and Arket are here. I have the tshirt from Arket and when I got it in Sweden it converted to $25 cad 😦. So in that regard it was definitely worth the price!

[@katherineandini5962]

I’m Uniqlo U gal. I still have those I purchased 5-6 years ago & they still look quite nice. Granted I go through the white one faster than the other colours, but even then I sort of “relegate” that for lounging around / run errands. I notice there’s 2 different types of material they use in the U line, I usually prefer the heavier & thicker one

[@kelleyking]

Gap has some lovely close fitting tees this season. Soft, hefty cotton and viscose blend. Look more expensive than they are. They look a lot like the Arket tee.

[@sherrygaley4675]

I really like these kind of videos. Love that you do the research for us. More, please!

[@thenewbaguette]

I have 3 of these uniqlo shirts and always get compliments on them! People are surprised to hear it's not from someplace higher end. They also hold up after many washes, so they last despite being fast fashion :)

[@victoryhawks2630]

Did you have to size up also?

[@thenewbaguette]

@@victoryhawks2630 I usually go for XS or S in general. For this tee, I do a S. I'd say for someone with broader shoulders to size up.

[@karenschmoutz6785]

I purchased a white Tee from Talbots last fall and loved it so much, I also bought it in black & navy.

[@marystewart1292]

My current favorite is the LHLL grunge tee. I got it in large, which is quite oversized for me, exactly as I wanted. Slouchy, soft and broken-in-feeling, all the things I love.

[@bonniewu3437]

Size up the uniqlo U crewneck, and it will look great on you! I normally wear size XS, but I wear size L for the t shirt. It looks super great and it is high-quality.

[@margaretgovednik2235]

Uniqlo tee shirts are my favorites. Good quality and price.

[@BebeLush2]

Banana Republic's Ts are amazing! Surprised they did not make the list. They fit great and stay fresh and white for a long time even after many washes.

[@elizabethwaldorf9275]

My newest white t-shirt discovery is the Kirkland Brand (yes Costco!) Mens' Crew Neck t-Shirt. Lay Flat collar , 100% combed Heavyweight cotton, Reinforced Seams, Tagless. A six-pack for $23 US!! I bought for my son, but I'm keeping a couple of them for myself!

[@wightwick13]

Agree!!

[@notnicci3689]

It's nice to see some brands that I haven't seen! I'm kind of starting out wardrobe building and love the Uniqlo one (and cost was a bigger factor for me), but I was recommended to size up for the boxier look with that brand. That works great for me and I love the fit!

[@Christinamychas]

Yes def size up! It’s a great tee otherwise!

[@grapeshot8]

I love the Everlane shirts (the classic cotton crew as well). The weight and texture are just perfect for me. I actually like that they’re the teeniest but sheer!

[@lisaatp]

Always on the hunt for the perfect white t but prefer scoop or v-neck 😊

[@dim9753]

THANK YOU for this review. I have the hardest time finding a drop shoulder t shirt that isn’t wide around the torso. The LHLL one IS IT!

[@Christinamychas]

You’re gonna love it!

[@lonenugget4301]

Like the look of the COS and Arket styles...more of a modern/updated feel.

[@KAW1239]

I also recommend &Other Stories tee. It has slightly longer sleeves and it’s not too heavy or too lightweight.

[@cswink1733]

Love the Everlane organic boxy cut. Really hear you about cost versus longevity. I also have super cheap white tshirts from Old Navy that I wear under sweaters. They come in petite sizes which is very helpful for those of us who are 5'1".

[@zofia2750]

Oh, I actually liked the arket and COS T-shirts the most on you 😅 I think it’s because the fabrics were less shear

[@Christinamychas]

They grew on me a lot more from the initial filming! Sometimes the eye needs to adjust for me. I like them all - just usually I prefer a more sheer grungy tee myself.

[@Jay-rd6gd]

This is exactly the video I was wanting!! Yay!

[@Christinamychas]

I hope it’s helpful!

[@marielsacco7267]

I was legit shocked at your feedback on the Arket and COS ones (and even more shocked at the price but then again I'm in Europe so they are cheaper here). I love both of these brands and have admittedly closed my eyes to their being part of the H&M family for their basics. That being said, they do lean towards more oversized styles so as a petite, there's a lot of trying on before I find something I don't feel I'm drowning in 😅 Other good basic tees are the ones from SAMSØE SAMSØE (another scandi brand 😉) - Thanks a lot for this video! Really enjoyed it 🤍

[@karinefrommontreal]

There are some COS boutiques across Canada so when Im close by I go for COS. Otherwise its Uniqlo for me (with size up) its an everyday luxurious feeling without breaking the bank😈

[@karenley7356]

Great video Christina. Can’t ever see me spending $70-$90 on a tee shirt. Great recommendation from LHLL. Would love more videos on sustainable brands in countries like UK, Australia and United States.

[@judymuramoto210]

Thank you! I bought the COS shirt and love it!

[@danakolpin1289]

The white boxy tee shirt from Unbound Merino Wool is the best.

[@Lolzadoodle8484]

I grab Uniqlo tees from the men's section (I have a large chest - 32E - and even based on that, would recommend to size down one size from your usual women's size) and love them! I've had many for 5+ years. I did comment earlier that I gave up on white tees, which is true for the most part bc I'm clumsy and tend to need quite a relaxed fit because of my chest & shoulder area. But other colors and patterns have been staples in my wardrobe for years :) I wait for their $5 US sales and grab 1-2 every couple of years.

[@busyberly]

I rarely ever leave comments on videos but thank you so much for doing this research for us! Having spent all that money that I never would have the stomach to, I hope you enjoy everyone of those white T-shirts even that really expensive one that isn’t even white, lol. I haven’t checked yet but I’m hoping your links are affiliates because I definitely plan to pick up those Everlane and Uniqlo ones.

[@kirstinpiche]

Franc is a Canadian, women owned brand that does really good tees. They use organic cotton and are Corp B.

[@nicolemoreland6257]

I love this video. I would appreciate this style of video on pretty much anything. I'm so over finally getting something I've been saving up for in the mail from an online purchase only to find that the fit is super unexpected and have to swap it out again and again for different sizes until finally I give up all together and I'm back to square 1. Seeing all of the items on the same person helps me gauge how they might work on my body, even though we are differently shaped. I'm in the market for a staple white tee and have been very overwhelmed with where to start, but you've helped me learn that I may enjoy uniqlo or kotn. Thank you!!!

[@NicoleLevit_]

I loved this video so much! I've been on a lookout for good quality white t-shirt for ages and every brand recommendation on KZbin has always been US based brands like Everlane. Was SO pleased to hear some European based recommendations too!

[@tholm4307]

I didn’t vote but COS tshirts are just about all I wear and I really love them. I buy the regular length but I do also have and love the cropped Everlane.

[@FS-rb2bh]

For my basic asket, I will not get tired of advising it and I have had many brands. Of course, the men's section asking for size advice by email so that the Fit can be adapted, but they are the best I have found by far. I already want a white t-shirt with Malo details from sezane, but the pity is that they don't have them now, I keep mine carefully and I'll replace them if they release one this year just in case. With drawing I recognize that the ones that Rouje released this year, the 100% thick cotton Timeo are very good. And striped Armor lux thick knit, although I don't know how shipping works outside of Europe. Those are the best I've tried and the most ethical Asket (you even see the workshops) and armor lux (totally French). I clarify that Arket and Asket are two different Swedish brands. Asket is sustainable capsule-based fashion where you will only find basic not trends or decorations, but very high quality

[@whiskersBOOSTER2]

Banana Republic, Gap and Loft are my favorite white T’s.

[@danielleworkman6206]

This was so helpful! You should do this for other basics like Tanks,...maybe even bras & underwear!

[@TColoradoF]

I have several Pact tshirts that I love. For me (in Colorado, US) they’re a local, fair-trade certified company that offers a great price point, good quality for grab-n-go spring/summer tee. They promote sustainability, and because they ship from one town over, my carbon footprint when purchasing is minimal (something I’m starting to think about more and more). The tees themselves aren’t super thick, so no black bras here, but nude works just fine.

[@annieevans7609]

For me, the Arket is a clear winner - but I’m 54 and 6 feet tall, so I have different needs from a T shirt than you do! I liked the slightly longer sleeve length and the thicker fabric. The Everlane is a real disappointment to me - if it’s that short on you, it’s going to be ridiculous on my long torso! Thank you for this research Christina - I really enjoy your videos 😊

[@raynacurtis]

Hi from St. John's. Newfoundland! I just finished reading The Conscious Closet and downloaded the Good On You app today. Because you mentioned them a while back I put in my first ever KOTN order today and then ran across this video afterwards. Hoping I ordered the right size in the Essential T but we shall see... might have gone up a size if I had seen this first. Love your channel! Thanks for all your work here and, like others, I'd love to see a video from you on black pants, and white button downs. PS If you do, please include brands with plus / curvy sizes.

[@Christinamychas]

Thanks for the suggestion! Will do and I hope you love your tee!

[@ceydaerenkol8176]

It was great review video. Thank you. My favourite is Theory white t-shirts. The one I got 2 years ago still holds its shape. Usually I have to buy a new one within 6 months or so. Because I wear white tees almost every day. I also like COS. I am planning to order from Kotn after this video.

[@bubblestheterrible]

I recently launched a search for a white T-shirt to replace a loose fitting v neck I loved by current/Elliot that they won’t make anymore. I ended up trying Rowan Tyler tees and love them. I wanted one that was kind of ‘50s marlon Brando, James dean classic, 100 percent cotton and not too tight or too loose. They say their cotton is pima cotton grown in California. I’m in the US though, but I’m very happy with them. The sizing for women is tiny though. I got large and even an extra large Tyler and it fits exactly like I wanted. First time I’ve ever bought an extra large!

[@careerfoundryex.1.786]

Could you do the same video for ribbed top? :D

[@gigantefan]

I love the Uniqlo men’s oversized Airism tees. Their short sleeves are 1/2 sleeves. They do run large. I usually like a men’s medium but in these I wear a small and they are still very roomy. These are comfortable and remind me of Tibi tees. They have the same higher neck and cool slouch to them.

[@Christinamychas]

Thank you for the tip!

[@AileenTownsend]

I was just shopping around for a white tee, so this video came at the perfect time! I'm glad I discovered you, as I'm trying to start being really intentional with my spending. Keep up the great content!

[@cindynorris5983]

I can usually find reasonable priced Ts at Gap or Banana Republic. I am in the US but they are usually under $20 when on sale.

[@suxoa]

I saw that someone wrote the brand Asket that you included in Arket (maybe assuming a typo) but Asket is a separate brand that is very based in the capsule closet idea and sustainability!

[@meghin5289]

So glad you did this video, I've been fighting for my life trying to find a white t that fits right and isn't too sheer and this was so helpful

[@spoly8139]

My personal favorite is Old Navy's EveryWear Slub-Knit T-Shirt. They are super comfortable cotton, come in a ton of colors including white, with different neckline choices (v-neck, crew neck, boat neck, etc.) and very affordable. The best thing is their sizing! I have a long torso and regular sizing isn't long enough. Old Navy tees always have "long" as a sizing option which fit me perfectly.

[@pamelakellow4225]

This was great! Would love to see more like this... Best black turtleneck, best tank top, best long-sleeved t shirt.

[@elizabethsparks2611]

I needed this!!! Thank you, I've been eyeing up Uniqlo items for a while now and this has helped me decide to go for them for a safe white shirt to wear with a bra!

[@rebeccab_bwlt]

Hello! I love white tee reviews. I had the Everlane box tee and it was good, but as someone with a longer torso, I wanted more length. The old U Neck was my all time favorite! I wish Everlane would bring us back! Since then, my budget favorite is Amazon essentials and my sustainable favorite is For Days, a closed-loop option with a “good” ratings at Good On You. I bought the Daily Tee in three colors and wore them out!

[@Christinamychas]

Thank you for the reco! I haven’t heard of For Days before!

[@fabulousmarlene]

The prices. Gez. I buy universal threads from target and I think they’re usually on sale for eight or nine dollars lol and I prefer a V-neck but they do have crewneck 100% cotton love love love them.

[@MIOLAZARUS]

[@eugeniat5460]

I'm really curious how the famous Whitesville T-shirt fits on women... please consider a part 2!

[@justinebarton2931]

I liked the Arket one the best. I've been looking at this one for a while. I've got a couple of their standard t-shirts but not the heavyweight. I've been dithering a bit as they are quite expensive for a t-shirt. But personally I love that thicker heavyweight fabric. I also like that the sleeves are a little bit longer and the body looks a bit longer too. I like to tuck them into my jeans and a lot of the other ones are just a bit too cropped for me. The only thing that's now putting me off is that it's an off-white and not a true white.

[@Nina-oi1qk]

Uniqlo's T for a smooth, thick fabric, more form fitting tee, that holds up very well to washing and for a looser fit the Old Navy Vintage T Shirts cannot beat. I hate bra show through and clingy Ts so these 2 work the best for me.

[@sarahthatcher123]

I have the Everlane long sleeve white t - shirt and it is a bit light and sheer but that is exactly what I like about it. I wear it under all my winter sweaters and it has held up really well. I really am glad it is certified organic so the price is worth it. The short sleeve one I’m I’m going to buy is by MATE the label.

[@romynijhuis2968]

Could you do a review of the ASKET tees? I am really curious about it😇

[@phackdaphish]

I have their white cotton tshirt and black jersey shirt. They're great. The jersey feels nice on the skin and not see through.

[@sandihunter1260]

I just bought 3 everlane t-shirts, one white, one gray and one pink. I had bought a black and white about a year ago and I loved them. But these new ones are different, shorter, heavier material. When I went to order I just assumed they were still the same ones from a year ago because they were the same price but they are definately different. I still like them but I like the older ones much better.

[@Christinamychas]

Ughhhh that’s so frustrating! Same thing happened to me with an aritzia piece - used to be wool and now the exact item is polyester 😑

[@megandell4]

I don’t really wear cotton white t-shirts, I do love a short sleeve cashmere crew though as my go to throw on top. Everlane has a good one and so does State cashmere.

[@user-md6ec7wp4m]

Thanks for an interesting video. Interesting to see how different people feel about basics. I love the COS tees (they also do a nice striped tee and prices are not as bad in EU) and have one in white and one striped one that I wear quite a bit. I find the material holds up well and the thickness is good, as non-see-through is important for me. The more over-sized fit is also better for me and material is comfortable. I am not personally a fan of anything Uniqlo, I find it is the thinnest they can get away with and still look decent! Understand the appeal on price, I just feel it won't last at all.
