I'm an average build size medium; not overweight nor athletic build. I used to buy a Hanes pocket t-shirt which fit just great; a generous cut which allowed freedom of arm motion and a slight drape off the shoulder which didn't cling to the body, allowing some air space between the shirt and my skin. This size is not the same as the medium of these beefy t-shirts. These newer Hanes products are very form fitting and more of an athletic cut; tight around the shoulders and chest and draping close to the skin. The chest width as measured at the armpit is 20" whereas the older version was 21-21.5", resulting in a big difference in fit. The old size is in between the new medium and large. The newer medium is too tight and the large is, well, too roomy for a good look. The color palette is super but the fit is not the same as it used to be for size medium; the older size doesn't exist anymore so be aware of that when you order.Monday, May 19, 2014
Hanes Men's Preshrunk 100% Cotton Born To Be Worn T-Shirt Review
I have three very old Hanes black tees, two of which are now so worn they have to be consigned to the rag bin. Hate to do it; I love those shirts. But after maybe eight years of wear I guess it's time. So I ordered 4 replacements and they arrived today. Hanes should be pretty red-faced about continuing to call these Beefy-T shirts. Nothing beefy about them, they are pretty lightweight. Certainly not as heavy as the old shirts. But worse, and why I'm sending them back, is the uneven stitching in the shoulder. One badly stitched shoulder on each of two shirts. The material doesn't lie flat but appears to "bubble" up near the collar. Looks bad. Sorry, Hanes, you had it but you lost it. I guess a $7 tee shirt is too much to hope for anymore.
