I've purchased softer tees for my husband( that were a better/more tapered fit).  I guess they make them wider at the bottom now, assuming a "gut".  It makes them bulkier to wear if u want a sleeker finish.  Again not so soft.  But, overall, they're ok.  The seams seem :) to line up alright, that's been an issue w other brands. I'm not paying 30$ for a tee. I don't think u should have to...
