I really love that you included the washing part. This is really true when it comes to brands like h&m etc. It looks nice, It fits great when you first try it, but then after few washes it's just bad. Great content as always

I pretty much only buy under-layers from certain brands, being a touch generous with the overal size of it, especially length. Even then, let's say it's a longsleeve for under an Airism oversized tee, the sleeves can sometimes kinda just get all misshapen, and the bottom of a tee peeking from under something else can also suffer from the same. Most of the risks I did take from H&M and the like did pay off, a lot of the time it's about predicting how it'll shrink and if it remains flattering. It's kind of a blessing, though, a lot less tempting to buy there this way. Too bad brands like Vans aren't jumping on these boxy half-sleeve cuts etc. more, I LOVE some of their clothes, and some have really, really nice cuts with dropped shoulders, flowy fabric, rich dyes, stuff like that, but there's definitely more potential.

It depends really. I've been wearing H&M t-shirts for years and some of them I have had for over 5 years and still wearing them with no signs of being worn off. I enjoy wearing especially the slim-fit ones as they emphasize your physique if you are fit of course. Other t-shirts however, started to look lousy after just few washes. From what I noticed, the ones I bought a few years back are usually much better quality than these bought recently. Same thing applies to sweaters, hoodies, etc. It appears that the overall quality of clothes from popular brands is now significantly worse.

The fit really depends on body shape and personal preferences. I think putting more emphasis on durability and physical properties would be great (i.e. brushing it with a course brush repeatedly, stretching it forcibly many times to see if they return to their original shape, the weight and breathability of the fabric, how easy it is to dry or absorb moisture, and whether they are resistant to staining, will the edges begin to curl after multiple washes/tumble drying, etc)

Hi Tim, I liked how you have made the comparison for White Tee. Uniqlo Tee gets a high rating due to its fabrics. Definitely, they use high-quality standards in manufacturing. But they have used CVC (Cotton Polyester) fabrics which helps to perform well in the criteria that you have made comparisons. Being a clothing manufacturer, I can tell you that Studio Nicholson and Represent are charging high prices because of their position as luxury fashion brands. Manufacturing location and fabric weight have less impact on the price they're charging.

But yeah micro plastics are a pain, I have heard there were specialised bacterias that could digest them, so maybe use this in water filtration 🤷‍♀️

Most of Uniqlo's non-Airism standard fit U series Tee are made of 100% cotton, and they are a bit too thick and heavyweight in hot summer days. They sometimes get stiff after dozens of washing and hang-dry. Maybe need some fabric softeners.

Another good quality test is to hold the shirt into the light to see the fabric. On cheaper shirts, the fabric is mostly sewn diagonal to save up fabric (when cut from the bigger sheet). This is also the reason, why many seams look of after some washes because the fabric is warping when not align.

Something that has become increasingly important to me as I've gotten older (I'm 33), is the back story to the clothing I buy. I've met people who've previously worked in the sweatshops for fast-fashion places like H&M, where they were working 16 hour days, paid $1.75 for the entire day, and only like 14 years old. I am willing to pay significantly more to know that whoever made my clothes were treated better than that. I do not mind having a closet full of $100 t-shirts if I can feel decent about looking at them myself.

Honestly, I have tried quite a few tees and also used to buy the Uniqlo one. However, those started pilling super fast and personally don’t love paying for that material. I have now completely switched to Son of Tailor from Copenhagen and I cannot imagine there being anything better. You can choose different weights, get it custom fitted to your taste and size, it’s the highest quality super long Supima Cotton. If you get multiple it’s not even that expensive and they really have a great stance on sustainability, supply chain innovation, and you get insights into who makes your tee. Might sound like an ad for them but I am just incredibly satisfied and have been almost since the brand was founded.

I decided to try Colorful Standard shirts this past week after seeing their emphasis on generally nice materials and fight against fast fashion. $38 USD for a plain colored tee I did find steep, but that higher price is honestly quite worth it. I can't vouch for longevity given how I got the tee this weekend, but the shirt materials do feel considerably more quality than pretty much all of my tees. Can't really vouch on transparency either though since I got navy. Fit was spot-on for my slightly wider shoulders, if slightly long. If you make another video of this concept for something like sweatpants or other basics, I would be interested to see your thoughts on those.

For keeping white t shirts (or any white clothing) clean and bright, use fells naphtha soap to spot clean the neck, underarms and any stains before throwing it in the wash. Works better on all natural fibers than on synthetics. After years of washes, you can also use bluing agents to make white look whiter. But I find that fells naphtha soap works very well. Both are very old techniques for keeping white fabric bright.

Finding clothes that are wide enough but not super long is so hard to find. Same goes for any pants. That’s why I really love Uniclo t shirts and the brand in general.

The Uniqlo one is my go to for quite a bit now, I wish there was more "washed" colors but I'm in love with the shape, softness, and the fact that you barely need to iron it post wash. An other one that I really do like for slightly more expensive is the Arket oversized heavyweight tee, it comes around £35, a bit longer than the Uniqlo but it has this extra cotton texture that the Uniqlo one doesn't have. It comes closer to the Represent I would say, but cheaper and smoother. Aside of that, having some extra ones coming from more independent brands like Studio Nicholson or Florence Black are giving this extra thing when you're wearing them.

Honourable mention on the top end for merz b schwanen. In the £100 range is their 13.4oz/yard tee, which is 454gsm as far as I know. All their stuff is great, and it's probably the heaviest tee out there, while also being one of the best made. The crazy heavy shirts drape in a totally different way. I've been liking them a lot myself.

I was also going to mention this brand - Their quality is just amazing, and they are made in Germany. They are also so special as they are loopwheeled and it's pure organic cotton! I don't know if you've seen, but Jeremy Allen White in the series The Bear is wearing a Merz b. Schwanen white T-shirt throughout the whole series! Love Merz b. Schwanen!!

Definitely agree with this. As much as Tim makes great videos this isn’t the comprehensive list of higher priced tee’s out there. Whitesville, sunspel, lady white co, glad hand, etc. the list goes on. He didn’t dive into construction much exactly to your point with loop wheel, etc.

I have 4 Uniqlo Tshirts and they are all great, only thing that sucks is their material composition (not that the fabric feels bad it's just the polyester that annoys me...) i really hope they release oversized tshirts with 100% cotton but then those will probably be a lot more pricier :(

Of course it’s not optimal at all that the Uniqlo shirt has polyester, but I wouldn’t say it’s as problematic as you think. It’s not going to pollute the water, because it’s not pilling, at least not for me. Therefore all the polyester stays in the fabric.

The best way to look good in clothing is to just be physically fit. It improves your aesthetic so much to the point you can wear a t-shirt and jeans and have a better look than someone who has not worked out at all. Hit the gym, bros! Wear confident clothing and just watch your colours.

Nice!! I do find it a little unfair that the UNIQLO t-shirt is NOT pure cotton. You say that "it's typically the cheap brands that don't make pure cotton"... which is false (Primark, H&M), but UNIQLO does. Also, we cannot overlook the fact that the cheap ones are made in sweatshops in developing countries. The wash test... mhm... I'd like to see how they would look like after 10 washes and a few months of wearing them. Great video nevertheless.

The Uniqlo cotton t-shorts are awesome. Either those or Ralph Lauren are the best. RL really stay sharp and soft and look like new despite hundreds of washes, the Uniqlo ones don’t hold as long but are extremely comfortable and high quality as well. Calvin Klein also has great t-shirts. They’re not as soft but also very durable.
