Default The Perfect Men's SOFT/PREMIUM Tee?

I have all my stuff made overseas but looking to do some domestic sampling here.

Question for my 'blanks' guru's on the site... what is the SOFTEST, most premium QUALITY blank tee on the market that can meet these specs:

• At least 5.5oz+, combed ringspun cotton
• A chest width on a 2XL no less than 50"
• A body HPS length on a 2XL no less than 32"
• A tight neck width (on a 2XL lets say no less than 7.5" seam to seam)

The tee HAS GOT to be pre-shrunk, preferably for no more than 5% width and length shrinking... and I would like personal opinion on how it holds up under multiple washings.

????? anyone up to the challenge?

Are you sure you mean 50"?

I don't think t-shirts are made with widths of more than 4 feet!

I think he is talking about the entire circumference. So across the chest measurement would be 25 inches. The standard for 2X is 26 (52) so that would not be an issue.

Sounds like a pretty tall order. I don't have the time to check the size specs on all the t-shirts I've sampled, but I would put out there:

Alstyle 1701
Citylab
M & O Knits sytle 5500
Jerzees Zt (style 18z)

Maybe if you shared some of your resources, others might be more willing to share what they know as well
