BVD Men’s Ring Spun Cotton Undershirts (Tag Free & Super Soft)

I wanted to replace my Gildan A-shirts, which I liked a lot. I had purchased them at Wal-Mart about six years ago, unfortunately they have replaced them with a brand called George. So here's the journey I went on to replace them; I purchased 7 different Brands.-Gildan (here on Amazon)-Hanes-Fruit of the Loom-George-Van Heusen-Pro 5-BVDI returned all of them but one - BVD(I am 5'9", 180 lbs, with a muscular build)The Gildan's I purchased on Amazon had lost the quality of the previous ones I had owned, they were paper thin and sized incorrectly (too small).The Hanes, the George, and the Fruit of the Loom were just as disappointing. The Van Heusen had a thicker material than the previous 4, but didn't really have a stretchy feel to the material, they were somewhat loose even right out of the package. In addition they are short, which probably means they are meant to be used as outerwear rather then tucked in as an undershirt (although I do use mine as outerwear, these were too loose). Now the Pro 5 were really the thickest, but they are extremely long in the 2XL, which is what I needed to buy to fit me around my chest and torso, but I had to return them because there are way too long (I guess these would be ideal for someone tall, maybe 6' or taller). The BVD had the best of all of them: they were stretchy, they are the 2nd thickest, and have just about the best length to either tuck or wear as outerwear (and their six pack happens to be the best value as well, $3.50 per shirt). I know this review is gonna help you eliminate the frustration of buying shirt, after shirt, after shirt, to find the best one.

I picked these up when my Jockey undershirts were worn through. The Jockey ones were great: they fit well, felt good, and lasted for a while. The Jockey ones were out of stock when I needed new ones, so rather than wait, I decided to try these instead. They had great reviews. Many people swore by them. The price was right. I went for it. And yeah, they're good so far! They've made it through several wears and washes and they continue to fit well, not shrink, and feel comfortable. Sure, it's ultimately just an undershirt, but if you're going to buy one of these on Amazon, at least consider these.

Overview: The New BVD Crew Tees are not quite the same as the older ones from a few years ago, but they're still pretty good.Size & Comfort: They do fit quite comfortably and do seem to be fairly well made, especially around the collar, but they're a little thinner, a little tighter around the shoulders, and a little longer than they used to be. It seems like these days most of men's clothing is sized for the tallest, skinniest guys around rather than guys with stockier or more muscular builds. I usually purchase tees in XL, so that's what I bought these in and I'd say that they're just a tad tighter than they should be, but the good news is that they haven't really tightened up at all after washing them. Maybe just a little bit, but not very much. The collar, I must say, does fit me just fine and that's my main point of contention with most tees. If the collar is too tight around your neck, you'll be pulling at it all day just to try and loosen it up a bit, but I don't have that problem with these. Also, I get hot pretty easily, so I actually like that they're a little thinner than before. If you are wearing one of these as an undershirt during the hot summer months, that's a definite bonus.Overall: I feel that the BVD Crew Tees are fairly comfortable, priced very well, and I would likely purchase them again.

This is the second "lot" of these shirts for me -- the first set have held up for years, but starting to look a bit dingy, so I figured it was time to replace them. The previous shirts have held up very well, fit me well, and are comfortable, so there was no need for me to try a different brand.

My favorite undershirt after trying several brands over the years.- Long enough to stay tucked in- Holds up well over time (still wearing shirts from the pack I bought several years ago)- Won’t shrink too small over time- Great thickness, not too thick as to be hot and not too thin as to be see-throughIn terms of sizing I’m a slim 6’ and the Medium fits fine. However I sweat a lot from my armpits and hate the feeling of t-shirts fitting my armpits snugly. For that reason I buy these in a Large and they still fit great underneath a slim fit dress shirt.

By my standards in 2024, these BVD t-shirts are great! They are the thickest t-shirts I have found at a somewhat reasonable price. They are very soft too which, isn't a big deal for me. The other area where manufacturers look to shave costs is size. You'll buy your typical brand (for me, that was G) and suddenly, your new shirts are basically skin tight. These BVD shirts are very roomy, but not sloppy. I'm just glad to find a thicker material at a reasonable price rather than the sheer, see-through t-shirts being sold by most today. Keep making these BVD and, I'll gladly keep buying them. RECOMMENDED

Glad to find and wear the BVD brand. These are holding up well in the wash, fit as sized and are bit longer in length so as not to ride up with wear. Mid-weight, not too heavy or stiff. Comfortable to wear with a dress shirt or to bed.
