Fit & Details
  • Model is 5'8" 170 lbs wearing a size Medium
  • : Not too slim, not too loose. Designed to achieve a balanced, classic shape that works for almost any look.
  • Our Heavyweight T-shirt combines a timeless, classic fit with proportions made specifically for shorter men. Cut from substantial 300 GSM 100% cotton, the fabric is pre-shrunk for a more consistent fit over time, while a sturdy bound, top-stitched collar helps it hold its shape wear after wear. The result is a heavyweight tee that feels solid in hand, hangs cleanly, and becomes the one you reach for without thinking. Imported.

Great fit, quality feel, and looks good with the shorter hem that complements my short physique. The heavyweight fabric drapes smooth giving a clean look.

I finally found the perfect t-shirt. I have looked high and low for over a year now for replacements to my daily black/white tees. I couldn’t find anything that was the breadth I needed in the chest with the right length for my 5’6”, 160 lbs frame (always stuck between a small or medium). Cut to this t-shirt; truly the best-fitting shirt I’ve found. Hugs your arms without being restrictive, can be worn as a standalone because of the 300 GSM and 100% cotton (!!!), isn’t blousy or skintight, and has a well-designed, high quality stitched collar. I’m so blown away by the quality when compared to some of the garbage that I’ve tried at other companies for sometimes 2x the price. I could probably write an entire article about this t-shirt alone, but I’ll leave it at that for now. Very, very happy I discovered this brand.

Gret material and perfect sleeve and collar and body hang

Unlike other T-shirts sold by much more expensive companies catering to short men, the collar is not ridiculously large. Also, the arms nicely wrap the biceps and don't stick out like wings (although could still be tighter) and the body hang is just perfect. I have purchased every color available. Please make in other colors, like dark brown, navy, and dark green. I'd recommend you select one size down. The XL, for instance, I had to return that I usually order in the lighter T-shirts.

Awesome fitting

Great cutting for short people like me. Love how the shirt sits at my waist and not at my hip. The only improvement i would suggest is to use shinier fabric. The black color fabric looks a little dry but overall a great piece. Would buy again

Love the t shirts

Just received my order a couple of days ago. I was concerned about the fit thinking they were going to be too short for me. They are perfect and I love the heavy cotton.
Will definitely order more. They are my new favorite shirt.

Great quality, good fit

The shirt is very reasonably priced for the quality of it. The shirt also fits relatively well. It’s still slightly long, but it still fits better than 95% of shirts you can buy

Great Quality & Superb Fit

If you’ve tried the slim-fit version, the fit is just as described - a tailor touch classic fit without feeling baggy of oversized.

Great heavyweight T-shirt

Really substantial thickness. I received many compliments on the tshirt. Fair price vs other options. I would recommend and will probably buy another color.

Finally, a T-shirt that fits perfectly!

I bought this T-shirt for my husband who is 5'3", 120 pounds, and lean/lightly muscular. For years, he's struggled to find clothes that fit, so for his birthday this year, I made it my mission to find some clothes that could fit him with no tailoring needed. Abbreviated came through! This shirt (and nearly everything we ordered from them) fit him perfectly in size XS. This shirt also lives up to its "heavyweight" description; the cotton is thick and seems like it will hold up well over time. And best of all, my husband is absolutely thrilled to finally have somewhere to shop that makes him feel seen and included!
