Slim fit: highlights the silhouette while remaining comfortable
Regular fit: perfect balance between ease and style

The choice of cut depends on your personal style and how you intend to wear it.

3. Quality of finish: details that matter

A premium t-shirt is also recognized by:

Reinforced seams
A well-structured collar (that doesn't sag over time)
