My husband had been asking for "thicker" t shirts and I came across these and decided to try them out. We had been buying t shirts from Old Navy and Target mostly and they were thin and did not last long. These are cheap in cost, but super durable and well made! They are thicker than the t shirts from Old Navy and Target, but not so thick to make them uncomfortable. These are my husbands favorite t shirts now and we are ordering more colors for him :)
