OK fashion experts, please tell me which long sleeve T-shirt is the best.

I like wearing long-sleeve T shirts.... Don’t ask me why, I just do. I have tried lots of brands, Haynes, Polo, “premium” brands like Huck, but I can’t find one that feels and looks good. I prefer 100% cotton, and a slim or athletic fit.

Anyone have a favorite manufacturer they would reccomend?

Fashion is all about the fit. Find the one which fits you the best and that’s the one to go for.

I don't think this should be limited to a particular brand. I just see what I like and provided it fits, I'm taking it irrespective of the brand.

Columbia PFG OmniShade + OmniFreeze. Well knit. Not cotton though.

The collared one for formal wear

The crew neck for fishing

I wear sometimes as well and have a variety of brands. Very comfy and I get the appeal. The most comfortable and best value I have found were Hanes. They once went on sale for $3 each and I stocked up so I’m good for a long while.

Too bad Tumi doesn’t make these lol

Georg Roth. The best. Not cheap, but not the most expensive either. Their pima cotton long sleeves are $125. If you buy one you will likely buy more. The key is that they get better with washing - tough to find with a good tee.

Glad this was mentioned because I'm going to be ordering from them myself this week. Curious to see how the fits are.

I just bought some of these from Free Fly. So far, very impressed. Never had a more comfortable T Shirt.

LL Bean makes great T shirts too.

The GAP clearance section is the best place to find what you want for about $10.

Great fit and cheap what more can you ask for. If you don't like it throw it away you're not out much ..

I prefer Nike’s Dri-fit fabrics to cotton now , even for casual wear.

They have one that is a bit thicker and feels exactly like cotton, but does a better job of moisture and temp control. The base Legend in poly has become my daily goto for work out and casual. Plus, they dry completely in a couple of hours for travel use.

Carhart are great. I run a limestone mill and wear them every day during our cold winters. They fit great look good and last. I am getting two years out of them in the mill. Limestone dust is not easy on anything, and these last. Now if only I could get boots to last that long
