True Classic Tees Review - What I WISH I Knew Before Buying!

[@thomasseibold4055]

I assumed this was going to be a typical ring-kissing product promo "sponsored" by the clothing brand. Instead, we got an honest, independent assessment of the product's claims and a common-sense take on their inflated prices.

[@TheSAHDLife]

Thank you for the comment, I appreciate it. I will always tell it like I see it! You can't buy me!!

[@nathanbryce5090]

Funny you said that I clicked the video first thing that plays is their ad

[@NikoTinbergen-n5i]

I wish he told us whether the shirts are 100% cotton. That’s hard to find nowdays but the polyester and spandex blends are prone to odor problems and feel too hot when I exercise in them (like my shirt is part plastic bag). Of course if a cottong shirt is too thick it will be too hot for exercise too, but will last longer.

[@beastmode_bumblebee]

What I hate is that I feel like the only way we know that a review is honest is if they have a negative review. I feel like almost know one just goes out of their way to trash a good product

[@TheSAHDLife]

@beastmode_bumblebee Yeah it's true.... The reality is if I make a positive video I could make WAY more money with affiliate links promoting the product. Taking time to make negative reviews hardly benefits me financially but if it helps my fellow brother man I'm all for it. Also too, sometimes reviews like this help the company make a better product which again, as the consumer what I really want...a good product. At that point I'll create a positive review and hey maybe can even make a few bucks on it too and at least my audience will appreciate it if it's an actually good product.

Thanks for saying, I appreciate it. I've got a few more tee reviews coming down the pipes. Some that are actually decent too thank goodness. I hate wasting money on well marketed crap!

[@zeejonesy]

I got a 6 pack recently, and chose to go with a size larger than I typically go. I’m usually a medium, but I went large. They were initially too big, but after washing them and drying them in a normal cycle, they shrunk and fit pretty darn well. Maybe still a tiny bit big, but am counting on them shrinking a bit more through the next few wash cycles. So, if you are a cynic like me and buy with the assumption that they will shrink, they’ll be a pretty good low maintenance shirt for you 👍🏼

[@TheSAHDLife]

I definitely bought the wrong size and in hindsight, should have did what you did. With that being said, after a couple washes I was pretty disappointed with the material. Have yours been ok so far? I went on a t-shirt kick for awhile there, and the other shirts I purchased & reviewed have held up so much better. I'll do a follow-up review on the clothes in a few months.

[@anthonyperkins5856]

you have to order YOUR size, its all good though.

[@erikjohnson1412]

Usually drying with cotton, yes I know it’s partially poly, you get length shrinkage, not width. And that’s personally my problem with them for my body type. Umm as far as ordering by their charts. “Your” size. At boot you have two different manufacturers and countries and they are inconsistent. Thus I did based on the chart, and disappointed. They really do run big and billowy. Especially the back.

[@michaellouielim3957]

They shrink due to drying right but what if normal sun dry? Will it shrink?

You answered every question I thought about these shirts. Perfect review! Thank you 😁

[@TheSAHDLife]

Thanks for much! Really appreciate the kind words.

[@asantesamuel13]

I've been wearing them for a year or so. They do vary in fit even though they're all the same size. Some are a little tighter and it depends on the color in my experience. The natural fits looser, the navy fits perfect, the cobalt fits tighter, the pure white fits tighter, the emerald fits perfect, and the heather blue fits tighter. It's kinda weird but the shirts are so soft and comfy, it doesn't really bother me, and when they fit right, they make you look great. It's funny you say it shrunk more than 5% because I complained to them about that after the first wash! Lol. Some of them didn't shrink as much though. If someone wants to try them, I recommend getting the natural (undyed), navy, dark green, and generally the darker colors, which seem to fit better.

[@TheSAHDLife]

This is a great fair comment, thanks for sharing. One thing I've found after doing multiple t-shirt reviews is whichever shirts make you feel good when putting it on, that's the one to buy. A lot of people don't like their experience with True Classic but a lot do so, I can't hate on that. I think if you live in the States (easier shipping) it's probably a lot easier and a lot less risky to try them out.

[@jasonhernandez3643]

I bought some and I agree. The shirts are not premium enough for me to wash them separately from all my other clothes but the company expects you to treat them as such. I had some that retained size and some that shrank really bad to the point I couldn’t wear it. The company does not make it easy to return or get a refund. At least when I buy a shirt from target or Walmart they except a return quite easily. It’s a NO brainer over here for this T-Shirt Company.

Oof! Yeah that is definitely not worth it for such a basic shirt. Really slick marketing though right? I have been through quite a lot of shirts over the last couple years and to be honest, I'm back to the 100% natural fibres now anyway. These polyester blends just carry the smell and aren't as good for the earth.

Since this video I've received other T-shirts from companies and the True Classic ones don't get much wear from me.... but like you said, for that price point, if you get the right size in maybe some cool colors, they are decent.

@@TheSAHDLife yes they are. I prefer the ones that are the lighter “pastel” type colors which I mainly buy white and gray but they have some that has very faint horizontal lines and I don’t think they are comfortable as the others but still better than others I found. Also I’m not a name brand type guy. I’m just a simple country guy so for me to buy AM it’s strictly due to comfort and not style. I wait for them to go on sale and buy several cause I do tear them up and stain them often. Also I don’t baby them when it comes to washing and drying. Again just but 1 size bigger.

It's a nice review but I think the issue with the fit is the website kind of makes clear if you don't want a super tight t-shirt with your current height/weight it told you to order large, but you got medium anyway. I think that's why after the wash it is a bit tight, the large might have been the better bet.

[@TheSAHDLife]

I totally agree with you however, I still stand behind the review. Ultimately the material (for the price) is not worth the money when compared to other shirts at a similar price point (like the Bylt shirt which I just reviewed). Even if the shirt fit better which I'm sure it would at a size large, I still wouldn't want it... Thanks for watching and good catch!

@@KhouryJake interesting! I have not tried or even heard about them so thanks for the share. That looks like a much more appropriate price point I would feel much better about buying.

[@mandel9330]

I have been buying t-shirts from way back in the day when Towncraft was the t-shirt to buy at J.C. Penny. Unfortunately they outsourced out of the country and the t-shirt neck was no longer tight and the material was flimsy so I dismissed that brand. Then once in a while I would find an off brand with a good tight neck and good fit. I have now moved on to the thick ones from Pro Club. They have the tight neck but the flimsy sleeves, but still the best I have seen for now. I clicked on the True Classic t-shirt one day and they took over my computer and social media. Anytime I logged on they came up like a flea sucking the blood out of me. I decided to give them a try and ordered large as that is my size. I realize all companies make clothing different sizes and some large are really medium and some large are truly large. I ordered the pack for 95 and ended up paying 105. I used to have a printed t-shirt business so I know the true price of a t-shirt is between 1.99 to 3.99, depending on the amount you buy. They took forever to be delivered. Then when I got them and I immediately put one on, because they bragged so much in their commercials. My experience was not good, A large is super tight and I am only 5'9" 175lbs. The material is super thin and flimsy. I tried to return and the site told me they are not accepting returns in my area right now. WTF!!! I kept trying and trying until after the 20th try it accepted my return and gave me a scan code. I lost about 10 dollars in shipping and taxes. I DO NOT RECCOMEND True Classic.

[@TheSAHDLife]

Thanks for sharing. That is very interesting! Since shooting this video I don't think I've even worn one... It's one thing to market that hard when you have a good product...

Nice review, I always see these advertised and wondered about them. I just ordered a true classic polo as I am on Zoom calls for work and although we are casual, a tshirt is a bit too casual for a Zoom call so I typically wear a short sleeve polo style shirt. I like Ralph Lauren polo shirts but they are so expensive so I am trying a true classic polo which at $27 USD for a polo seems reasonable.

[@TheSAHDLife]

Thanks for watching! And that is a decent price point for the shirt.... hopefully they fit and feel nice. My fav company since I've gotten into shirts does a nice Polo but it's pretty pricey. Wearing it though you can really feel the quality (especially vs True Classic).

So, I'm 5'9", 188lbs. Yeah, I should weigh more like 170lbs, and that's on me, but True Classic Tees are supposed to fix this. They don't. Actually, they made me look worse than the regular REI Coop tees that I wear. I bought 1 crewneck tee, one V-neck tee, and two polos. The tee itself just looks/feels like a budget tee (i.e. cheap). Each shirt fit differently (WTF? Quality control anyone?) None of them complimented my dad bod and isn't that what they are supposed to do? The polos looked like something you would find at Fred Meyer or Kmart. No style, nothing. One of the polos had a white spot on the front that looked like either bleach had dropped on it or it was poorly dyed. I honestly wouldn't wear these tees if True Classic gave them to me for free. And who doesn't offer pre-shrunk tees nowadays?

[@TheSAHDLife]

I agree with you, and I'm very similar body type with you as well. Perhaps they help bigger guys out, but for our dad bods they almost do the opposite. And like you said, they look like a cheap tee, that echoes my experience as well.

[@TheWolffness]

Good and honest review, love it

[@TheSAHDLife]

Thanks for the support man, really appreciate it 👊

[@SaSpursFan]

Thanks for honesty

[@TheSAHDLife]

My pleasure. Hoping I can save people money! They aren't the worst shirts in the world... if you can get them on a wicked sale, sure. But at full price!!! Nope. Not even a little lol.

[@MarioCarbajalPereyra]

I was going to buy some, but watching your review really makes me doubt and think is not the best option tbh, i just order 2 Amazon Essentials and they fit well, now i was thinking on trying this ones... but now i'm not sure

[@TheSAHDLife]

I think IF you can get them on a wicked sale for the colors you want, they are okay shirts. Certainly nothing special. It's been awhile since I ordered them so I have considered trying them again... but I hate wasting money so I don't want to take the risk again lol.

[@BillHughes-hz8ei]

I ordered a basic black/white/od green pack and they fit great. I ordered another pack with different colors and they are all shorter than I like. I have a gut and I hate when the shirt barely covers. If they can be more consistent it would be great.

[@TheSAHDLife]

Yeah that's the thing right? Maybe my set of shirts wasn't the best or most accurate size. Maybe it was. It seems like since I've made this video their prices (or at least sales) are better. I like that they have a variety of colours. Maybe I'll try them again one day and make an updated video. Have you had a chance to put them through the wash a few times?

[@hpx2io]

hello there can i ask what brand two other shirts you were comparing were?. i actually like the fit of those shirts better so. thank you

[@TheSAHDLife]

I believe they were H&M and maybe Old-Navy? It's been awhile since I've done the video, sorry... also the Costco tees were the V-necks (the great value pack!).

[@jodensmith5093]

I bought the five pack. 4 of them have been pretty perfect and did make me look way better than like a Hanes or fruit of lume for sure. The fifth one was a bit small. I don’t really wear that one. Also I’ve bought more but not for nearly full price. I always get them very discounted. My five pack was cheaper than the three pack that this guy got. Just wait till they are about 50 plus percent off and you won’t be disappointed

[@TheSAHDLife]

Yeah I think the price really effects the expectations. I've personally found other shirts that I prefer but that's rad they work and look great on you though!

[@charlesmamon8516]

Thanks for the honest review

[@TheSAHDLife]

Thanks for saying, I appreciate it.

[@aitken1965]

Mark's has a buy 1 get for 1/2 price deal. Mark's t-shirts are excellent quality, fit great, and are guaranteed not to pil for 50 washes. They cost much less than True Classic.

[@TheSAHDLife]

Nice share, thanks! 👊 I haven't bought a Mark's shirt so I'll check it out.

[@illusionmofo]

I was close to buying one when I saw this video. Thanks. I prefer a thicker fabric due to the 'nipply' show that I really dislike.

[@TheSAHDLife]

Haha right? I live in Canada too so... 'nipply' season is half the year lol

[@raylambert7562]

Got them on sale at $18.00 each, they are very soft and fit well. Perfect for a muscular body.

[@TheSAHDLife]

They are soft for sure. And that's nice you got the right fit. We'll have to check back in with you in a couple of months to see what the durability is like!

[@Adam-g-uk]

What are they like now? Still worth it?

[@AFA.21]

What would be a better option to them?

[@TheSAHDLife]

Tough call. Reviewed a few shirts on my channel and they were all better but they weren't perfect... Right now I'm really leaning towards 100% cotton... A lot of these shirts nowadays have synthetic fibers and they end up holding a bit of a smell which I don't love. I just picked up a few American Eagle ones for good price and they're doing quite good so far with cool colors.

[@YukYuk12]

Just got the 3-pack thanks for the honest review I’ll give them a chance

[@TheSAHDLife]

Hopefully they are great for you! If you remember please come back and give us an update after a few washes!

[@fearnot187]

Hey man what were the other two tees you were wearing in the start of the first impression part of the video ?

[@TheSAHDLife]

I believe they were just the cheap colored Tee's from H&M (like $5-8 each kinda thing)!

[@DaMonclerBandit]

I juat bought a mustard shirt classic tee and a black polo, I will say the first thing I noticed was how thin they were and they fit a lil above average. I only bought it bc I was emailed a free shirt coupon from making an account there months ago that I forgot about. Definitely not worth it if ur paying full price

[@TheSAHDLife]

Well that's interesting. I'll be curious how you feel about it after a few washes. Don't put it in the dryer 🤣

[@KC-sj6oi]

I just made a $900 mistake ordering from True Classic. Ordered about $1000 worth from TC last summer and loved the fit of their product so I decided to make another order of new item such as Chinos. Long story short…TC provided very little customer service with regard to finding a lost $900 order. Customer service was a waste of my time however, this was after wasting two afternoons talking to two shipping companies who were hired once it entered Canada where I live. DHL and Loomis Express who pass the blame back and forth. DHL hired Loomis as a third party…they were absolutely unhelpful and appeared to not really interested in finding this order. Thankfully I used PayPal so I expect a refund at some future point! I had a few more minor issues last year with the same shipping companies, shipment from TC. Loved the product so much once I received it I decided it wasn’t worth my bother. Wish I had now!

[@TheSAHDLife]

Yeah that's interesting. You think think for an order that big people would be bending over backwards to make sure you were happy. It's a shame their service isn't as good as their marketing. They have an interesting angle with their advertising and if it gets fellas feeling good about themselves, hey, I support that!

[@KC-sj6oi]

@@TheSAHDLife I’m really disappointed because I love the fit the t shirts have that I was really anxious to see the Chinos the long sleeve button ups and the chinos shorts…all $900 worth. Im very aware how over priced it all is however I was willing to spend the money for the fit. Looks like my search continues because this was a disappointing exchange with all parties from True Classic to the shipping agents! Very poor customer service all around

[@komodinotubesco]

As others said, being T-shirts for every day, I don't want to have to be there to do "special" washes for these T-shirts that should be easy to use, then personally I prefer T-shirts that are not too fine, maybe they keep a little warmer, but if the material is good, it shouldn't bother you. Also another sore point as you said is the price: there are certainly lower priced brands with the same or higher quality. The pro is that the advertisements are well done and are also nice and fun, but this is only a marginal aspect, the quality-price product must be the strong point and the reason for the purchase. Ps. Sorry for my English

[@TheSAHDLife]

You are very right! The ads raise awareness and get people thinking that hey, maybe better quality t-shirts would be nice. And it's true. Just not their own particular t-shirts lol

[@mando73204]

I bought some Tommy shirts I dried it once and couldn’t wear it ever again they literally went from medium to small since then I started buying a larger size so when I dry it it doesn’t be too small on me and it lives longer as it can go through more than one wash and dry and you’re absolutely right the shirt doesn’t deserve a $20 and it doesn’t look nothing like how it looks online doesn’t fit you as good either

[@TheSAHDLife]

I tried not drying my shirts for awhile there but it's too much a pain in the butt... since this video some companies have sent me actual higher quality shirts, and the materials can handle it while retaining their size... I HATE paying a high price for t-shirts but higher quality do seem to last a lot longer. What are you wearing now?

[@jdudefun1755]

I just bought the 12-pack for $150.00 USD. Thanks for the review, I'll plan on air drying them every wash. Do machine dry for these guys. Thank you.

[@TheSAHDLife]

Nice! That's a whole lineup of shirts right there. Exciting. Have you received them yet? How do they fit? It's been a couple years since I did this video... I'm curious if they're any different now. That seems like a fair deal too.

[@breakingcustombc2925]

I just tried True Classic and I prefer the Activewear line. Wrinkling and shrinkage always bother me with 100% cotton. I'm going to give it a bit before I decide to order any others.

[@TheSAHDLife]

What did you think of the shirts overall? Have you had them for a few washes yet or are they still pretty new?

[@aldo9672-w5b]

Hollister t shirts are my favorite. They are 100 percent cotton and they fit really well

[@TheSAHDLife]

You know, there is just something special about cotton shirts isn't there? My favorites still are the Fioboc shirts which I reviewed but every once in awhile I just love wearing a 100% cotton shirt. If I see one I'll try it. Thanks for the share!

[@AlexN2022]

great actual review

[@TheSAHDLife]

Thanks, I appreciate it 👊

[@adriancata7203]

I wear calvin klein black crew neck undershirts and tommy hillfiger they are great but they don't have a lot of color choices like charcoal Grey.

[@TheSAHDLife]

It's funny you say that because I feel the same. A few companies have started sending me clothes, and the Fioboc ones I reviewed on my channel are my favorite but they too have only sold the black / white / grey / navy colors... Although I've been working with them and pushing them hard and they've finally added 2 new colors. They aren't super bold colors but still... it's nice to have a variety, especially as we enter the warmer months. Are those CK and Tommy shirts decent value? The Fioboc ones are expensive but built to last more than any other shirt I've worn.

[@adriancata7203]

@The SAHD Life tommy hillfiger and calvin klein are light weight they don't shrink to much. I have had some for 15 years or more and worn them to tatters. The colors I wear are black, grey, charcoal grey and navy blue. I am at Walmart and I am going to try a 6 pack of George t shirts .

[@TheSAHDLife]

@@adriancata7203 let me know what you think about the George t-shirts. I think a lot of people look through these comments so your feedback might help others!

[@anthonyperkins5856]

I just received my 3 pack. I like the shirts BUT they are too thin for me. the fit is nice but the material is too thin. Other than that they are fine. This review is very accurate, i experience the same thing. I ordered the 3 pack polo shirt because this is what I wear now days. All in all will I order again? NOPE!

[@TheSAHDLife]

You'll have to let me know how the quality maintains after a couple washes. A few companies have sent me shirts since then and to be honest, True Classic is easily at the bottom of the pack when it comes to which shirts I reach for. The best marketing though!

[@buccX]

I ordered a 12 pack of their shirts and immediately returned. I ordered their smallest sized shirts, and they were still too big. Vanity sizing is getting ridiculous. I can't even find a shirt small enough anymore.

[@TheSAHDLife]

Yeah that's a bit frustrating. It will always be a problem when ordering things online. I was wondering if a brand like this gets bigger will they eventually be in stores? How did the quality of their shirts feel even though they were too big? It's been a couple years since I made this video so I often wonder if they've changed their product at all.

[@edcarreiro2967]

I bought some Trye Tee shirts I paid $25.00 extra for two day shipping. Three days later still no shirts, I called and got the run around by the woamn on the phone. Brought on a Tuesday I got an email saying they will be delivered on the following Monday . So why did I pay an extra $25.00. Disappointed.

[@TheSAHDLife]

Yeah that is weak... you'd hope it would be there at LEAST the same week. I'm not sure where you live, but still. Hopefully you got 'em and they are good!

[@TheSid2355]

How does this shirt compare to next level 6210

[@TheSAHDLife]

To be honest I am not familiar with those... but based on the price alone I'd recommend the next level 6210s! There really was nothing special at all...

[@jirredvang901]

Lol I bought mine 2 years ago and was wondering if anybody else were buying these shirts so I came here, and every problem you pointed out was true. I do love the shirts but they have their problems

[@TheSAHDLife]

Yeah they're not the worst shirts right? It's just they are marketed as a premium shirt and that is reflected in the cost. If my expectations were set differently it would have been a different review. I'm almost tempted to order more now and see if they've changed but...

[@chickenmuffin]

I was shocked by the price it is ridiculous. Only a true genius, though, could take the drop shipping print to order T-shirt business and say... wait a minute... what if we printed NOTHING on the shirts, and charged MORE because of marketing. True genius.

[@TheSAHDLife]

You gotta hand it to good marketers eh? Because you are right. They are selling emotion... they are selling an image... they are basically saying it's ok to be overweight, you can still look good brother, we got chu'... then you're like REALLY? So you buy... then you get the shirt and you're like oh... I guess not. I still look fat. And I'm out $100 now..

[@lokomoko008]

these same shirts cost $5 on this other site online. True Classic just buys them from there, print their logo where the tag should go and charge a crazy amount for them to make a profit. These shirts are so comfortable, I have them in different colors.

[@TheSAHDLife]

Yeah?! If you want to share the site I'm sure a lot of other people would appreciate it. That's awesome.

[@reneegay2414]

Where do you get them from?

I hatemy Bench v-necks. The bottom is so wide. My stomach looks big in the Bench shirts. Great review!! BTW, are the sleeves short or long on the bicep area? I'm kinda hoping the're short.

[@TheSAHDLife]

Short on the True Classsic tees? Yeah, they were mid-bicep. They'd show off the guns if you have em lol. I don't wear the bench ones anymore... a few companies have sent me shirts since this video and surprisingly the Fioboc ones are all I wear now. I did a video on them in case you are curious. You can see that here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/sIPNiKCvg8apoZY they ain't cheap though, but they last...

[@Senior005]

UCXX are the best fitting & best priced t-shirts. Period!

[@TheSAHDLife]

Interesting, I've never heard of them. There marketing looks very similar to True Classic!

[@potorrero]

I'm actually going to give the bench ones a try, they looked better than the true classic ones. I'm as tall as you and just a little bit puffier 😄. So I now know how it will fit on me. Thanks!

[@TheSAHDLife]

Haha awesome! You just can't beat the price of those bench shirts. Since this video a few companies have sent me shirts, and the ones I wear daily are the Fioboc ones... I did a video on them. They aren't the cheapest but they're all I want to wear. It's tough because the company is starting to create styles I don't like, but their basic clothing is just the best. But value-wise, those Bench ones are a good choice 👌

[@RustyLongPipe]

Best t-shirts I’ve tried are Charles Wilson. They’re really good quality. I bought some of their plain T-shirts to have my company logo embroidered on for my employees to wear. Ended up buying a load for myself. Perfect fit for me and true to size. Much better than any of the big brand T-shirts I’ve tried out. Quite thick as well which I prefer over thin.

[@TheSAHDLife]

That's great. Where are you/they located? I am not familiar with the brand. Reasonable price?

[@Hydrograd57]

Great review! Do you have any brands you would recommend that do what True Classic claims to do, but better? And if not, what brands would you recommend in general? Thanks in advance!

[@TheSAHDLife]

Thanks so much! Appreciate it. To answer your first question, no, I can't say I've found a shirt that compensates for the covid weight I've put on lol. BUT yes I have found other great shirts... I even reviewed two others on my channel and I can still say at this point MONTHS later, the shirts I've got from Fioboc are all I wear. It's fun because they are a growing company but they still haven't found how to market properly. I don't like the styles they are putting on shirts at the moment, but their quality and durability is top notch. Their plain white / navy / black Staingo t-shirts are just the best. Highly recommend. Check out my review of their shirts here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/sIPNiKCvg8apoZY
