Good quality white T-shirts?

12 replies

I've tried Cos, H&M, Next, M&S, River Island, Zara...but none have what I'm looking for.

White T shirts, good shape (not too boxy or cropped), good weight - not too see-through, wash well (Cos, to my surprise went grey, thin and lost shape very quickly despite recommendations!) perhaps even lasting more than 3 months? Does such a gem exist?

Rapanui is worth a look - ethically, not expensive, and good quality.

I bought a really nice t-shirt the other week from Crew Clothing - it is also available in white

Uniqlo is your friend

I've just got 2 arrived today.
Jaeger at M&S, and an M&S Collection one so a bit more expensive.
I've seen Cos are doing "heavyweight" ones, have you tried those?
Arket might be OK.
I had some Uniqlo a few years ago now, and though the quality was good, the style was unflattering- like men's - too long and shapeless. Might be worth seeing if they have different shapes now.

Arket? Their necklines tend to be rather high though.

I’d second Rapanui, I bought a 4 pack of v necked ones - nice fabric, good shape and they’ll recycle them when I’m done.

Arket are fantastic. Slightly heavier weight which makes them hang better in my opinion

Judystilldreamsofhorses · 02/05/2022 20:02

Another vote for Arket.

Thanks everyone- off to check those recommendations 😊

I have these in all colours, they are brilliant, so flattering. V neck, good length, good weight and shaped hem. I struggled for years to find a white t shirt that actually suited me.

Esprit. They've never let me down

Sunspel are great for basics. I have quite a few tees from there and the cotton gets better with washing and wearing.
