Good quality heavy cotton T shirts and polo shirts - where to buy?

Would love help finding these for my husband who has, ahem, the odd lump and bump which means that thin ones look dreadful.

Used to get him Boden ones quite successfully but they’ve stopped their menswear. Also tried Reef Knots but they are thinner. I’d love ideas please; budget sensible for the right stuff as he wears them to death.

Arket are thick and good quality.

Uniqlo has some good ones, not all so best to check on store first

Fat Face Lulworth, short or long sleeved, are thicker and good quality.

Crew clothing have some good polo shirts, FatFace usually good for T-shirts.

I've never bought men's clothes from them, but Lands End usually has good cotton.

My larger friend wears a lot of Weird Fish stuff. He says they are the only reasonably priced t-shirts that don't look awful on him.

My DH likes the Sainsbury's TU ones. The thing is make sure it's not too fitted/tight. I buy a size larger as I know it will shrink in the tumble dryer.

My husband also gets his from Colorful Standard. Rapanui do good quality t-shirts but they shrink a bit in the wash so it’s worth sizing up if in between sizes.

Brilliant, thanks all - will check out those suggestions.

Yes, Friends are pretty good. Organic cotton, green energy and fair trade wages, and pretty heavyweight

Espionage are good. Nice long length as well.

Lands End, Fat Face, Cotton Traders. Dh likes thick cotton tops, and those are his favourite brands, Lands End being number 1.
