Undershirt vs. T-Shirt
The whole point of contention about these shirts is whether they are "thick enough". In order to easily address this issue, I suggest the Fruit of the Loom folks rename these shirts "undershirts". An undershirt is something you wear, appropriately enough, under something else. A t-shirt is something you would wear as, also appropriately enough, a t-shirt. I bought these shirts to wear under shirts, as is such, their thin material is aptly suited for my needs. However, if I was to wear this as a t-shirt, with nothing else over them, I could be fined with indecency in 12 states. Thin, yes. Constructed well, yes. Made to wear under another shirt, yes. Made to wear out on a night of the town with nothing else on, no. I only docked a star because I am unsure as to how the collar will hold up over time. So far, so good, but only time will tell.
