Well fitted t shirts for men?

nignag75

So I have been lifting for about a year and a half now and have built up a decent amount of muscle.And what I have realised is that 99 percent of clothes are for people who are do you even lift status.It is difficult to find t shirts that look good.Anyone got any suggestions for good brands that typically fit well on someone with some muscle?Thanks guys

Zara do decent plain t shirts in a slim fit and super slim fit style. They occasionaly will have long sleeve t shirts with similiar fits. Relatively inexpensive too. However if you have any sort of gut they won't suit.

Don't bother wearing t-shirts.

Buy one that feels one size too big.. then fill it. back to the gym now..

RidleyRider

Sports direct for gym t shirts! Inexpensive and most are good quality. Other than that, shop about and try the usuals- Next, Zara, Superdry etc..

All clothes should be purchased in Tkmax.

Tried that once. Lost the will to live after five minutes. Shopping is unpleasant enough without having to squash into a shop like a sardine for it.

I'm a complete convert. Size and shape are great. Developed by an american football player so they understand a mans shape.

Not cheap but you didnt ask for cheap right?

Colman is probably being a bit snobby.

He doesn't like to go to the Thrift Shop.

Genius in the powers court centre, dublin, have some great line. I like the replay, revolution and library t-shirts. They are excellent quality and a great fit

I use to be like that until the gf dragged me in and I was suprised with the quality of their clothes.

There is a lot wrong. They have kept the price the same, but use a much lighter material than they did in 2009/2010, they were a good fit then and good value but now they are just ****. Dunnes did the same thing with regards the material of some of there t-shirts and socks, but they also increased the price.

All the better.

Now they'll rip when you flex.

Which is the name of the game.

Dunnes clothes are overpriced but with regards to pennies t shirts I don't agree. Yeah, they're plain for 2.50 but material wise, you get what you pay for.

There's going to be a big raid carried out by the Fashion Police any time now...

There's some websites that do tailor made for a good price - you send them your measurements.

Haven't used it myself but it comes recommended.

Love under Armour gear.

Spent about $500 on gear in the US this summer, would have cost double that here.

No UA store unfortunately but you can get UA gear in some lifestyle sports shops but even at that, the selection isn't great

tkmax usually has a bit of under armour stuff

Topman do a nice selection of t-shirts for people who aren't fat. I'm getting tired of clothes assuming they need to account for a big belly.

Material is really important too.

Cotton is awful. Any sweat and it starts to stretch and lose its shape. As well as being clammy. Some of the newer synthetic high tech fabrics are amazing at managing sweat. You can also wash them 100 times without them losing their shape.

Do you even shop brah?

Could you be specific or do I just keep an eye out for high-tech sounding fabrics?

Nope.

I've accumalated addidas, Nike, addidas, patagonia, UA shirts and they all name their fabrics differently. Dri-fit, HeatGear, capilene, etc.

Its all polyester really.

I just avoid cotton.

Hatfry

Nothing beats the feel of putting on a freshly-washed, crispy, well-fitted cotton t-shirt after a shower and a shave.

Burton and Diesel have decent Tee's at times.

If you can fit into a hollister T-Shirt you need to add weight to the bar.

I'm a large older gentleman. Jack & Jones T-shirts are a good fit and bulletproof. Good for about 100 washes, I buy the white ones and use them as vests under my work shirt in winter, they soak up sweat and don't smell.

Skater shops, the oversized T-shirts fit me like a dream (think Homer in the clown pants), are expensive but you'll be including them in your will. Animal in particular are made from the material on the underside of the space shuttle.

Superdry, zara etc all make me look like I should be dancing on top of a podium with a cowboy hat and a couple of glow-sticks.

Since you asked for "fitted" I presume you want people to be able to acurately measure the circumference of your nipples through them so for that reason... I'm out.
