It's a medium weight. Not heavy duty, but not so thin you can see nipples. I haven't done a burn test, but it definitely feels like 100% cotton. It's breathable, I wouldn't recommend it for summer but for 3/4 seasons it's great. It's a little bit of a lower quality cotton; it wrinkles easily, attracts lint and also it's a little rough to the touch. Also the collar suffers from bacon collar, which means it loses it shape and can fold inwards. It's not horrible but noticeable. A good thing though, the shirt hasn't shrank and the color hasn't faded. That said I do wash it on medium heat and hang dry it.FitThis is my favorite thing about this shirt. For reference I am 5'6" and 160lbs. Chest size 40, waist 33.The measurements for medium are shoulders 18 in, chest 21.5 in, waist 21.5 length 26.5.It's true to size and fits really well in the chest, shoulders and torso.Someone my size I have trouble finding a shirt that's not too long, but also not too tight for my beer belly.The length hits just under my belt, so if you're taller this shirt may not be for you.It doesn't have side seams. This helps the shirt drape better and hide my belly.There are two downsides though. The sleeves are really wide and a little short. And also the collar is a little big. When layering it can bunch up and look sloppy. Overall the fit is relaxed and loose, but not oversized and not sloppy.Tl:DR 100%Cotton, Fits shorter and wider guys. Really good value for a basic tee.

I bought these black t-shirts on Bolo and I'm really happy with them. They're super soft and comfortable, perfect for sleeping or wearing throughout the day. The fabric feels great on the skin and they're very easy to wear. The only issue I found is that they shrink after washing and drying them in the dryer. However, this is easily fixed by ordering one size up from your usual size. Overall, I definitely recommend them 100%!

Great shirts! Soft and comfy.

4.0 out of 5 stars Se encogen en la secadora

S. · May 20, 2025

Al momento del primer uso quedan perfectas a la talla que pidas pero después de la primera lavada y luego meterlas a secadora se encogen un poco, en lo personal me hubiera gustado haber pedido una talla más grande para no tener que pasar por esto. Dejo foto de cómo se ve la tela después de lavarla

Awesome!!! Here is how I buy clothes.1. I like low cost.a. Bolo is low cost. And I don't have to drive 50 miles to the Outlet store.2. I buy the same clothes over and over. Always the same sizes and colors for the basic items.a. I buy Champion long boxer briefs, preferably made in Vietnam.b. I buy sock from Johnston and Murphy.c. I buy t-Shirts (and most other items) from Brooks Brothers Outlet.Unfortunately, Johnston and Murphy's over the calf blue merino wool socks change over the year. Double pipes at first, then single pipes close together, then triple pipes. All I want is the same exact blue sock and same exact grey sock year after year so that I can avoid matching socks out of the clean clothes basket. No, what should be the same exact sock is a big mix and match event every morning. Same thing with Champion. Why do I have to check to see what country they are made in before buying them. Why can't I just trust that Champion underwear are the same the world over.3. I like high quality. Here is how I define quality:a. Don't skimp on material.b. Long staple threads.c. Ergonomically cut.Every single sock manufacturer out there is skimping on material on socks. Johnston and Murphy, Brooks Brothers, all shorter as the years go by. They make them a quarter of an inch shorter. It doesn't sound like a lot. But I have to keep pulling up my new socks. I never have to pull up my old socks. How much money is being saved by cutting the socks a quarter inch shorter?Brooks Brothers t-shirts are still pretty good. I have stuck with Brooks Brothers because every other t-shirt manufacturer that I've tried makes them an inch shorter, which means they come untucked. Brooks Brothers t-shirts always stay tucked in. And they don't pill after 10 washes. I hate pilled t-shirts. I hate them!Ergonomically cut: my mother bought me some gold toe socks. I have big calves. The elastic cut into my calves by the end of the day. Five year old Johnston and Murphy socks are butter smooth. The new ones are starting to cut with a sharp rigid thread around the top. Brooks Brothers has a nice soft elastic at the top--if you buy the non-outlet variety--which go for $25 - $50 per pair. That's a lot of money for socks when I like to keep 15 pair of blue and 15 pair of grey in the drawer after a full wash. That would be like $750 - $1,500 for socks. But the ergonomics on a sock make the difference between a beautiful day and a day that makes you feel like you've been sweating out in the sun.So, here is the scoop on the Bolo Essentials t-Shirts:1. Value: They are $16 for 6 shirt. So, that's about $32 per year that I would spend on t-shirts. That's Awesome!2. Consistency: Bolo gets it! They actually advertises that they are not going to keep switching up. You get the same thing every time. I'm sure they will find a better way to make something and that a change will occur every now and then. That's fine if they make an improvement. But I'm betting it will not be changing the number of pipes running down my socks. I'm sure other brands change the number of pipes because they found a factory in one country that makes they cheaper than in another country. And they are not made to Johnston and Murphy's specs. They are just socks already being produced by another manufacturer at a lower cost than the last factory.3. Ergonomics: The t-shirts fit well. From what I can tell so far, Bolo Essentials t-shirts use long staple cotton that will not pill.But all of this is really to communicate to Bolo. Nice job with Bolo Essentials! Would you *please* make some over-the-calf dress socks. I will love you even more than I already do. Please consider making long inseam boxer briefs that somehow keep the legs from riding up or don't start slipping down. Also, I wear a lot of all cotton, non-iron dress shirts. All cotton, non-iron, pleated, chino's would be awesome. Long rise, gaberdine dress slacks would be great! But, maybe I'm getting beyond the essentials with the slacks. But please, the socks! I hate every reasonable priced sock, that I've tried, that is made today.

5.0 out of 5 stars Glad I chose them!

Good fit and nice collar. Very soft!

3.0 out of 5 stars Fine, but will shrink.

M.P. · May 24, 2025

The shirts are fine, but they shrink a considerable amount after the first wash. Make sure you buy 1-2 sizes up if you want a loose shirt after you wash it.

Just what I needed.

Good enough for an inner shirt

(function() { P.when('cr-A', 'ready').execute(function(A) { if(typeof A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel === 'function') { A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel('review_text_read_more', 'Read more of this review', 'Read less of this review'); } }); })(); .review-text-read-more-expander:focus-visible { outline: 2px solid #2162a1; outline-offset: 2px; border-radius: 5px; } As per description, these are inner shirts / undershirts. They are not meant to be outer wear but if you really want to, they are even good enough for that. The quality is good enough. I normally purchase name brands like F*Loom but their quality has declined lately. My latest concern was that the neck tend to "bacon" upon initial wash. I bought a similar sized shirt from Walmart at $8 (George) and that wrinkled at the neck as well. So when I found these Bolo Essentials for about $5 each (6 pack), I decided to give them a try. Personally I wear medium. I like how this size fits me not as an undershirt but for wearing casually around the house. I measured the medium at about 29 inches (sleeve end to end), sleeve width at 7 inches. Waist width at around 20" and total length 27". Washes it warm and then ran it through a hot tumble dry to see any shrinkage. The collar/neck did NOT bacon. Sleeves and width did not shrink. Total length decrease by about an inch (26") so I would call that very minimal. This is excellent for this price.The label on the shirt shows it was made in Pakistan from an all cotton material. The label is not sewn in nor is it a tag. It simply looks like an iron-on transfer. What I particularly like is that the label eventually peels off after the first wash. So I would assume that a second or later washing will remove this large tag altogether. Excellent !

exquisitas

deliciosas!! que buenas playeras,

Great for the price

A.C.C. · July 20, 2023

These are not super quality but are fitted and look good when new and out of the drier. Sleeves are short and open up after wearing. For the price you can't go wrong. I bought a dozen

Tolle Qualität

Good quality

Good quality. Better than Bolo Basics vests which shrunk after I put in the dryer and the neck area became a bit looser.
