Inside Hook is a solid website for guys stuff.

They just published a T-shirt Guide that was well done if Pocket T-shirts are your thing. (Note - these are plain T-shirts)

Add 20 pounds to that model and put a beer in his hand and I'd bet the house he'd be an FFA poster.

that Kentucky Waterfall to compensate for the thinning up top is a dead giveaway.

I won't fight over the pocket. But they're a nice touch.

i can appreciate that their model is just a regular dude. it makes all the t-shirts look equally crappy.

What's your normal weekday wear?

This has me curious: I would say 90% of my tees like this have no pocket. But I do have some that have a pocket. Honestly, I have no preference either way. Gun to my head, I'd probably go "no pocket" just because I would never use the pocket. So my question is, why do you prefer the pocket? And I'm not judging, by any means. Just wondering.

in summer? pocket tees :mellow:

and i look like this guy. so it's a fair representation for me to work off of when looking to buy a t-shirt. when i looked at the Gap image i thought "yep, that's exactly how that shirt looks on me".

instead of seeing some chiseled monster wearing a skin tight t-shirt that looks nothing like me and doesn't tell me how the shirt will actually look on my body... except material type... this article showed me EXACTLY what i wanted to see.

Thanks. A good pocket tee is essential to this Dapper Dan man. I go with J. Crew 100% cotton XL or Large slim pocket tee these days.

Punxsutawney Phil · Apr 24, 2019

All of these shirts are overpriced. Look for the brands Next-Level or Bella+Canvas.

Pocket adds a tiny bit of "dressier than a plain t shirt" to it. Not much. But a bit. You never actually put anything in the pocket.

Gotcha. I thought that too with the model being more a regular guy.

Yeah, that's the exception. Most are in the $30 range. In my experience, that's about the right spot for a t-shirt like this.

If it's not in a rolled-up sleeve, it's not a real pack of Reds.

So when I help my dad work on the house he can keep dropping his lighter and cigarettes out of it, then keep cursing as it happens, followed by him throwing them across the room, then picking them up and putting them in his tshirt pocket again

Disagree - every pocket tshirt I know has a logo on the pocket and a big fisherman/construction logo on the back

I have some Faherty stuff. It's all really good quality, but yeah, they're pricey. They have decent sales sometimes.

how's the fit quality... generally.. of H&M?

at $6 per shirt it probably doesn't matter but is this thing going to hang like a tent? or squeeze blood out of my nipples?

H&M shirts shrink to toddler size the first time you wash them.

You can go either way with H & M Tees. I get the slim fit because I enjoy some nipple squeezing.

H & M tees won't last forever, but they look fine and you can't beat the price. Honestly, a t-shirt only looks as good as the shape you're in so why spend a lot for a t-shirt if you'r not jacked?

urbanhack · Apr 24, 2019

I'm super picky with my t-shirts and looking to buy some more. this will help.

I need them soft and pre-washed, preferably tag-less and narrow torso fit, not wide.

The pocket adds to the price. I bet their non-pocket tee sells for $35.

Dressier than a plain tee? What occasions/destinations have this requirement?

Nah. You put a pocket square in that t-shirt pocket and you're good for any formal function.

As casual as that while fully intentional

Now this sounds like a guy that would put a pocket square in the pocket of his t shirt.
