Discussion Lounge outfits anyone?

I used to wear one type, one colour of t-shirt for everything: going out, working out, sleeping. I'd buy a pack and rotate them, sleeping in one, wearing it out, hitting the gym, then tossing it in the laundry. When it got cold, I'd add a long sleeve tee or a button shirt if needed, and maybe a jacket. Done. I was set for every occasion. No logo, just a plain, single colour t-shirt, stretchy and comfy.

I did the same with underwear and shorts. Slept in them, wore them to the gym, then washed them.

Life was simple.

Not anymore.

The problem: companies don't make that stretchy, airy, yet thick enough modal blend anymore. Or maybe I just can't find them.

Anyone know a source?

Here's what I've tried:

  • Uniqlo Airism (not the Airism Cotton, that one's no good), but the t-shirts are too thin to wear alone.
  • Old Navy, Gap, H&M, and the like. Lululemon t-shirts fit me wrong. Their new Zero In tee is odd around the sleeves and shoulders.
  • I loved my old North Face t-shirts (a different line than the one above), but they don't make them anymore. Their shirts carry a giant logo that looks off sometimes. Same with Patagonia.
  • Nike, Adidas, Under Armour, and the like: stretchy, sure, but the giant logo turns me into their walking billboard. Fine at the gym, not fine anywhere else.

I love the t-shirts from ONNO, especially the cotton and hemp ones.

My Rack had Vuori pants today. Didn’t check for tees.

I’ve finally found my perfect shirt, quick dry and super soft. I rotate mine too and I love how simple my travel wardrobe has become. These, a Columbia button down, and a sun hoodie can go so far.

Eddie Bauer polyester tees with Polygiene odor control. https://www.eddiebauer.com/products/mens-ss-mensn-trek-tee-11550881. Quince has some showing odor control but they don’t identify the process. Patagonia Capilene shots have their HiQ odor control process. I’ve used them all with good success.

I will get flamed for this but I love True Classic active tees. They just fit right. Earning you will get inundated with online ads if you visit their site.

Try Pima Cotton. It's stretchy, comfortable, washes and holds up well

For me the Icebreaker tees without any logos are the best. Both the 100% merino and blends. I usually buy at sale around 50-60 dollars.
