Great T-Shirts. My son works outdoors in the heat & high humidity so he needs shirts that can take the punishment, repeated washings and still look great...Hanes Pocket T-Shirts are ALL that and more!

I play table tennis as my fun thing to do, and, especially in summer, it isn't so much fun when you are perspiring like crazy, and your shirt and shorts are soaking wet. This shirt is a composite or combination of cotton and a synthetic; as such, it is a little cooler than a full cotton t shirt, and more importantly the water from your body (i.e. sweat) evaporates from the shirt very quickly. Most of the time I am dry when playing. Under the arm pits is a small exception, but I can live with that. The material is almost as soft as a good cotton fabric, and the fit is full (I wear a large as I lift weights). The stitching seems adequate (I haven't had any parts come undone or unraveled as of yet). As a final note, notice the 5.2 ounce as to the weight of the shirt; it is slightly lighter than other shirts on the market; this again helps it to shed water more quickly than others in the same class. (If price is a factor, Fruit of the Loom also produces a similar shirt, often at a lower price when found on sale.) Oh, one more thing, there are some full synthetic t shirts out there that are even cooler and lighter, the problem is they do not have a pocket. I like a pocket on my t shirt, so this is the best one with a pocket.

These are slightly heavier material than the 3-packs I have usually bought, i.e. W--Mart. I have had them since Jan '13 (three months now) and they have been washed multiple times. They have retained shape VERY well, unlike the typical T-shirts which are out-of-shape after two or three washes. These were poly/cotton blend. More info: in Feb '13 I purchased 4 more same T-shirt, but 100% cotton. They too have "passed the test" of multiple laundry cycles.

I had really high hopes when I bought these tees (Large). That said, when one got dirty I put it in the washing machine then the dryer on low heat. The tee shirt

shrunk down to someplace between a small and a medium. In conclusion, you get what you pay for!

I am disappointed in this T-shirt. It is very thin, and does not appear to be well made. It is thin almost see through material, and I don't think it will hold up very long.
