Re: Decent plain t-shirts
Not recent, but I got a couple of packs of Costco own-label plain white ones years ago and they’ve been good. Nice and long with a slim-ish fit.
Re: Decent plain t-shirts
Always get mine from Next. Have lasted well.

The best I've found, for the slimmer gent who wants something a bit fitted is the Teejay T520 (link below)
I came across these because they're used for my company's branded t-shirt - and they pretty much fit me perfectly
They're also really cheap c£13 and come in a load of colours
They hold their shape, and colour, and I just live in them now

Depends on how tall you are! I've found Weird Fish to be really good quality, holding their shape well. Rapanui isn't bad either.

Ordered a pack of 7 for £50 with free shipping, nice, plain and seem to be eco friendly too.

Concorde or the SR71 are always a good bet, but also Typhoon, Harrier, Tornado and even Spitfire, Hurricane etc.

People don't just buy the cheapest t-shirts available and just replace them when they get fucked?
Blimey.

Re: Decent plain t-shirts
― Terry Pratchett, Men at Arms: The Play“The reason that the rich were so rich, Vimes reasoned, was because they managed to spend less money.
Take boots, for example. He earned thirty-eight dollars a month plus allowances. A really good pair of leather boots cost fifty dollars. But an affordable pair of boots, which were sort of OK for a season or two and then leaked like hell when the cardboard gave out, cost about ten dollars. Those were the kind of boots Vimes always bought, and wore until the soles were so thin that he could tell where he was in Ankh-Morpork on a foggy night by the feel of the cobbles.
But the thing was that good boots lasted for years and years. A man who could afford fifty dollars had a pair of boots that'd still be keeping his feet dry in ten years' time, while the poor man who could only afford cheap boots would have spent a hundred dollars on boots in the same time and would still have wet feet.
This was the Captain Samuel Vimes 'Boots' theory of socioeconomic unfairness.”
Trust me, when you're scraping together pennies to buy food, you're also habitually buying the cheap t-shirts especially when you're weighing up how many meals that t-shirt could be...
I still find the concept of spending £15-20 on a t-shirt to be a bit odd though. That said, I never really wear only a t-shirt up top, I always have something over it, so I treat them as underwear and never bother getting anything that's particularly fancy/quality/etc even though I can now afford it, as it seems kinda pointless for something no-ones ever gonna see. The rare times I've had nice t-shirts (gifts etc), I've never really noticed the difference honestly.
Re: Decent plain t-shirts
I don't think I've spent more than £6 on a T-shirt either
Also consider them as an undergarment/21st century wife beater

Re: Decent plain t-shirts
I feel like the quality of H&M essentials has gone down over the last few years though. I've still got some of their £4 t-shirts / £9 long sleeve t-shirts that I bought pre COVID that are holding up strong, but ones I bought in the last couple of years already have holes in them. The colour choice isn't as good as it used to be either.
Still couldn't bring myself to spend more than £6 on a t-shirt also. I've been gifted some more premium ones which are nice but the brand has long since worn off the label so I don't know what they are.
