      Do you use laundry nets/bags for inside your washer?

          That does suck.  Is it in the front?  I did that to a couple of shirts, and it took me a while to figure out that the shirt was getting crushed between my belt buckle and counters at work.  Switching buckles made the problem go away.

          Oh and if you're thinking of trying to fix it, Jimmy did step by step photos of how to sew up holes on tee shirts.  It's around here somewhere.  I'll try to find it…

            I use mesh bags for my laundry just as an added measure against them snagging in the machine. Another great idea from my wife  😘

              Thanks Chris! It is on the front, and right where my buckle sits. I've only worn the shirt once though.. Oh well.

                el, what are your thoughts on the Strike Gold tee (beside the hole of course)?

                weight, construction & fit are my main concerns.  thanks

                  Yeah, that's a real kick in the nuts.

                  Found that tee shirt repair post by Jimmy I was remembering.  Unfortunately, the pics are gone now.  May still be helpful, though.

                    Its about the same weight as IH Loopwheeled tees. Construction is flawless. And the fit would be impossible for you.

                    I wear an XL in the strike gold tees, and a Medium in the IH tees.

                      I'm not brave enough to try this without photos showing me what to do, so I'm just gonna live with it.

                              El, that shits ridiculous. I love nice (and stupidly expensive) stuff as much as all you guys on the forum, but sometimes I shake my head at how delicate this stuff is compared to my many 3 dollar t shirts. Anyway, hope you get it fixed up.

                                Supreme used to make bulletproof tees, I have a couple that are coming up to 6 years old. I haven't owned my IH tees as long, but no faults to report with them either.

                                      In general I think the quality from Supreme has gone down the pan in recent years anyway. It's about Uniqlo level quality for 4 x the price.

                                        I just watched a documentary about waste management in Italy. All I have to say is that country is fucking up big time. I guess it has to do with La Camorra (organized crime syndicate) running most of the waste management.  The part that is the most fucked up, is that they buried toxic waste in the Acceran Mountains countryside, now people's life expectancy in the area is 50 years old, not to mention that all their food is polluted with toxins.  This is a great example of how being a piece a shit now, could fuck it up badly for YOUR kids (not your kid's kids)….food for thought.
