First, I work from home. I have a closet full of nice, soft, cotton/poly/rayon shirts that I wear when I go out, but most days I just need something more roomy and comfortable to wear when I'm sitting at the computer or working in the shop, or when I need to get slightly messy in the garage. I hate most 100% cotton shirts, because when they're cheap, they're scratchy and stiff for like a year until you break them in, and most of them are cut huge for super overweight people (I'm about 5'7, 145 lbs) and hang off me like an uncomfortable trash bag. I didn't want something slim fit, just not huge. For reference, the Medium fits me great.

I recently visited the Caribbean and Bahamas, and I found that a lot of the super comfortable shirts you would find at the nicer gift shops (even some at Ron Jon) were printed on Comfort Colors shirts. I decided to see if I could find a few online once I got back home, because paying $40-50 for a 100% cotton t-shirt that has a picture of a parrot drinking a margarita didn't really seem like a great idea to me, especially because I planned on hanging out around the house in these.

These shirts are everything I was wanting. They're soft and plush, and they honestly feel like a shirt you've had for years and washed many times. The colors are all faded, which I really prefer. The shirts are tough, and you can tell they're sewn well. I honestly think you'll ruin these shirts yourself far before they will wear out. The sleeves are a bit more on par with a traditional-cut shirt, so don't expect slim fit sleeves here.

I bought about 10 of these in different colors, and ended up reordering five more of the Pepper color because it looks the best on me (dark faded grey). I wear these every day when I'm hanging out around the house and working on the computer, and I don't ruin any of my nice shirts in the process while I'm doing nothing. Overall, it's nice to find a good shirt that fits well and doesn't cost an arm and a leg.
