Thing Fabrics" is a brand that uses towels produced in Imabari, the largest towel production area in Japan. Imabari is a highly trusted towel fabric production area, and this T-shirt uses the world's first towel fabric woven with spandex yarn, a material usually considered unsuitable for apparel. This material is usually considered unsuitable for apparel, but the flexibility and strength of the spandex yarns give this T-shirt a comfort and durability that is unsurpassed. The wide width and the casual yet elegant look are the work of designer Masahiro Fujiwara of "WHITE LINE". It is a convincing work. Perhaps this is the trump card for spending the hot and humid Japanese summer in comfort.

This is the most beloved T-shirt among kids in the U.S. today. It may be an overstatement to say so, but in fact, this "Alstyle" is the most popular T-shirt body for various independent brand T-shirts. It is thick but not too heavy, yet not see-through. The rough texture of this fabric is a testament to its durability, but it also has the added advantage of not sticking to the skin. The wide body width, which is filled with air, is perfect for the current mood. There are many great plain T's in the U.S., but this one should be the benchmark for this summer.

Felco was born in New York, New York in the late 1930s. The brand has continued to offer athletic daily wear that blends in with everyday life and never grows tired of it, and one of its most representative pieces is the basic made in U.S.A. pocket T-shirt. The smooth texture, moderate elasticity, round body, slightly shorter length, boxy silhouette with a moderately relaxed feel, and compact size give it a delicate and soft look that is different from the so-called American style. The cuteness of the tag attached to the hem is also a point that cannot be overlooked. This T-shirt has a completely different style from the aforementioned "Alstyle," even though they are the same American plain T-shirts. If you are looking for a chic T-shirt for adults, we recommend this one.

The extremely thick arms, contrasted with the clean width, slightly longer length, and mock neck. The silhouette is technical. The fabric is a cotton 100% jersey material with a moclodi treatment (a technique that raises the surface of the fabric and makes it stretchable).

This item fits oversized outfits and leaves a radical impression.

This cool and textured pocket T-shirt is made of a lightweight fawn material. The orange hue is a perfect match for the moderately large silhouette, as is typical of Buhto. These days, we tend to wear only white, black, gray, or navy, but since summer 2016 is supposed to be extremely hot, why not wear a bright red color like this? It would look great with faded denim.

When it comes to knit T-shirts, Crepuscule is the obvious choice. This is a semi-mock neck WHOLEGARMENT knit in a loose-fitting silhouette made of cotton and nylon.

VINSON et Mireille is a long-established workwear brand born in the Burgundy region of France. In recent years, the brand has developed a wide range of items, including functional wear and well-designed items. This T-shirt is made of a light and thin fabric, but the use of firm cotton gives it a somewhat noble and elegant impression. While the style is a simple pocket T, the wide width and drop shoulders are in line with the trend. This is exactly the kind of T-shirt you want to wear now. The fact that it is made in France also tickles the heart.
There are so many ways to tell the story of this simple T-shirt. First, the sewing. The flat seamer design, adopted with the aim of creating a T-shirt that can be worn inside out, provides a comfortable feel against the skin. The side cutting is slanted and the pattern is calculated to make the front appear smaller, which also has the effect of making the tummy area less noticeable. As for the long T-shirts, the sleeves are adjusted to 9-minute sleeves to make the hands look longer. The most significant feature is the double-layered front. This eliminates transparency, which is a problem with white T-shirts. Even if you wear Supima cotton, you will not be able to fully enjoy its comfort if you wear underwear. This is where the idea came from. Traditional Ecchu Yatsuo Japanese paper is used for the packaging. The brand's items delivered from Fukuoka evoke the word "Omotenashi" (hospitality).

This is made of suvin cotton, a crossbreed of sujata, a species of cotton originally from India, and sea island cotton, known as the "jewel of cotton". The knitting machine is specified to reproduce the weave of vintage T-shirts, and the degree of knitting is adjusted just for this material. This piece, which has a vintage look but also has a smoothness, suppleness, and luster, is a crystallization of the brand's attention to detail. The brand's iconic specs tag is attached to the back of the left cuff, and it becomes a good accent when rolled up. The elegant, deep Bordeaux color makes this an eye-catching piece. It is also a good idea to choose clothes that are out of fashion.
