Madewell looks good and is cut properly but I get those stupid holes almost immediately.

Target has a really good one by universal thread. They’re like $6 and the perfect thickness and they don’t cling in a bad way.

I came here to recommend these as well. They’re great, as are their kids clothes.

NP. Yes, the holes!! I love the look of their T’s but the damn holes…. Gave up on anything but denim from madewell.

I just saw V neck T shirts in Target today. In a bunch of colors too. Sorry, I can’t remember which brand. On another note, Target had some bathing suits on display and they weren’t from last summer. I am in PA and it is currently 20 degrees here today so bathing suits are annoying me.

Too funny - this is the exact time I buy swimsuits for the summer. Otherwise the cold is so depressing to me! Just bought 3 suits this morning. Stay warm PP.

This is who LL Bean, Orvis, and Lands End are made for. Try those. Seriously. It is everything you are looking for

I think they are great as well. My biggest complaint is that I can’t pick and choose what colors I want. They just come in standard packs

That does kind of annoy me too. There is a nice striped one I'd like, but it is paired with camo (never!). I find them flattering and comfortable enough I can mostly get over it and I tend to buy clothes in a limited color palette so I still like them mostly.

I love these Target tees.

I like the ones from Lands End - I’m kind of hourglass - I like the white ones from there because they are not see-through. Also I really like the sleeve length. Also really like other colors from Kohl’s Tek brand. The white from there are too see-through. I wear XL from lands End and prefer the petite. Large from Kohl’s.

Lands End regular or relaxed (not fitted) are what I wear daily; I wear a tall size there as I'm long waisted. The St John's brand from Pennys are too short for me but if you're petite they may work.

What size are you in adult tshirts?

I love that site for my little kids. I've been curious about the adult sizing too.

PP here. I like the T-shirts from Boden, nice thickness. I generally don't like V-necks though, they always feel too low cut for my body now.

Another vote for Lands End. It's not an exciting brand, but it gets the job done. I can't pull off a close-fitting T either. These Ts are roomy in the body.

50-something also with a few extra pounds.

Used to love Lands End. Don't anymore. The last ones that I bought were cut very narrow in the shoulder and the fabric pilled quickly. Maybe that cut works better for you.

LLB - I find that the cut is boxy and have never liked them.

Eddie Bauer - Used to be my primary. Quality is still okay but they have a weird obsession with heathered fabric that I am so over.

Target - Hit or miss but the ones that I have have held up well.
