Crisp colourful t-shirts - do they exist?

Really desperate for some decent t shirt recommendations - I went shopping last week and everything I could find was slash neck, slopey shouldered, all wonky at the bottom - they all make me look like I'm melting! The fabric was also pretty cheap and I'm sure would fade after a few washes.

I'd really love to find some nicely structured t shirts - not baggy, but not too tight either, ideally a higher neckline, with some structure to the shoulders. I also love colour, so white would be fine, but bonus for some brighter options too.

Any fab t shirt suggestions?

I like Uniqlo. Great range of colours, and they wash and last well.

I find Uniqlo colours muted and sludgy TBH, although I managed to find a nice green one last time I was there. I do like their quality though.

M&S are pretty good for basics like this.

Have you heard of Lands end. Good quality and a variety of styles and colours to choose from. I personally think the styles are very classic and they look well made.

M&s everyday tee is what you are describing- great structure and shape

Earth Wardrobe. Great colours. Good quality.

I really like both of these, they are cotton and elastane so will hold their shape

Colorful Standard. Its organic cotton so feels lovely. They do a normal fit one, its great - shoulder seams at the shoulders. The colour looks like new after three years still. Lots of warm bright colours. My fave is kelly green.

I’ve bought loads of these from Sainsbury’s this year https://tuclothing.sainsburys.co.uk/product/tuc147449363.

Much thicker fabric than the M&S everyday tees and they wash really well. Looks like they don’t have many left (they had loads of block colours and also some striped versions earlier in the year) so possibly not much help to you now, sorry, but I would definitely recommend snapping some up next spring assuming they bring them back in the same style.
