I need new tee shirts for hot weather.
If you don’t mind advertising for the company, these are great t shirts. Light and breathable. Not all cotton so they don’t get hot. Not heavy plastic shirts like you find at Sam’s Club either.


KUIU T shirts

It's 2023, and you're still wearing cotton tees when exerting yourself in 90+ deg weather?

I think I've seen these on sale at Costco for three for $10 or maybe $12. Even if you don't have access to Costco, you can buy them direct from 32 Degrees for $5 each. They have moisture wicking boxer briefs on sale for $3-4 too.

Seriously…my most comfortable Tee shirts are all the freebies I’ve collected from donating blood at Blood Assurance here in Tennessee over the years…they seem to wash and wear better than any others (maybe it’s the “Chose Life…Donate Blood” logo) but I have worn them for years and from whoever they source them, they hold up and wear well…maybe it’s part of the overall message…but whatever it is…GIVE BLOOD and maybe your Tee shirt will be comfortable and long lived and this is coming from a former Jehovah’s Witness and if you know anything about them you know about their hatred of blood transfusions…so GIVE BLOOD and save a life and maybe get a great shirt in the mix Razz Razz Razz…the life you save might just be your own (speaking from experience)…just sayin’

I was looking at Under Armor shirts recently, and they seem to have several different blends of materials.

Any preferred blends ? Looking for something to wear for playing sports in the sun.

"Heat Gear" is their dedicated hot weather line of clothing.

All of my Under Armor hot weather shirts are either 100% polyester (for the loose stuff), or 85-90% polyester with 10-15% elastine (for the tighter fitting stuff that needs to stretch a bit).

I exclusively wear Hanes Sport Cool DRI Men's Performance T-Shirts:

https://www.hanes.com/hanes-mens-t-shirt-h4820.html

They are 100% polyester and the most comfortable shirt I've found. I wear gray ones and I'm not in the office. When I am in the office I wear a white one under my dress shirt.

Try one. I don't think you'll be disappointed.

I'll recommend Duluth Trading Company's Buck Naked long tail mesh t shirts based on decades of use, with tuckable concealed carry here in Florida.

I like Gildan Ts and have a bunch, all of them with some design, US Flag and/or Eagle or similar design. I have a few very heavy cotton Ts, too, but when I sweat them up, it takes forever to dry out.

The Gildans soak up sweat for me as well as anything.

I also love the Armachillo Boxer Briefs both in the winter (Florida so not so cold) and summer.

They are very comfortable and last and last, at least for me.

I've not tried any of the Armachillo Ts, since I have a lot of the Gildans.

I've been buying these Russell Performance Ts for several years. They last a long time and are very comfortable. It's around 100° F here for a couple of months and I hardly ever wear anything but these. I like the color selection, too, and have everything from white to the Skittle colors.

I saw a guy wearing a nice looking work shirt ,
Crew neck with a pocket.
But
It had a hoodie type pocket over his belly button.

That you could both hands in.
The
Guy was visiting from Canada.

He said it's perfect if you have to carry a cell phone.

I buy some cheap ones at Sams, whatever they have for this weeks deal. I’m a huge fan of Under Armor though for good T’s and even the Nike ones are pretty decent but not as good as the UA in my opinion. We get T’s at work, like a metric shit ton that I have to wear because they are safety color but they are junk, if they weren’t free, I wouldn’t advertise for them lol
