Good post Triple, I've wanted a good reco for white Ts for a while.

Thanks, Toasted.

What's the thickness like on those Sunspel tees?  The problem that I have with most white tees is that they end up being see through on me because of darker skin…

Been looking at Vevla Sheen but I cannot justify T's at that cost. I know they carry them at Craft Workwear in LA but have never tried them on myself.

Here is a link to one place to purchase them:

Please let me know if anyone has any experience with them…

I know Aero Leather do 'Goodwear' T shirts that are seriously heavy duty but are a little short for me 6'4".

I can confirm this. I felt like a Little Person walking around this past weekends party…

I have some Velva Sheen tees….  They're OK but not worth the money.  The black (overdyed I think) are super soft and slubby.  You have to beat the white ones into submission a bit before they get nicer.

They also run really small...  I'm 6', 170 with a 38" chest, wear a large & they're snug.

Thanks nameness. Looks like that's a no go. And I would say that your advice in regards to James Purse is right on!

Triple, the Goodwear are quite reasonable, are they so short that they are not even worth a punt for the likes of you and me?

Velva sheen  - but only for short people.

Other than that - go Loopwheeled

I've just bought both a XL and a XXL from Sunspel - will report back on size suitability for big people.

I see on Self Edge that Flat Head do what looks like a nice plain T shirt, big money though.
Mind you, if you read the info you can see why.

nameness, I picked up a couple of Sunspel, they are pretty thin, so I expect they will be a bit "see thru" for you.

N.B.: @ Tripleterror, I think you should go for an L if you are interested in the Sunspel.

Thanks for the info, hectic.

hanes and champion does good plain shirt, or try janpanese brand like flat head or full count Zimbabwe cotton

I can recommend Garbstore

They also sell Velva Sheen listed on this thread previously

Sunspel are fantastic quality but not for heavy duty wear . . . the cotton is too fine
