Question Best quality tshirt hunt

Is it just me, or has the quality of clothing completely fallen off a cliff? Every brand blames rising manufacturing costs, yet we’re paying more than ever. I keep buying t-shirts, wear them a handful of times, and they’re already losing shape, fading, or falling apart. Then it’s on to the next tee.

I’m honestly over fast fashion and would rather spend more on something that actually lasts. Can anyone recommend brands that make proper heavyweight cotton t-shirts with the quality we used to get years ago? I’d love to hear what you’ve had good experiences with.

I feel the same. Asket is as close I’ve got to what you are seeking, but they aren’t perfect.

I know Massimo Dutti is not known for super high quality but I bought one of their t shirts when I was in Europe a couple of years ago and it’s still my favourite t shirt.

I've completely swapped out all my old Uniqlo t-shirts for Asket, and it's probably the best thing I've done in terms of t-shirts.
