It might be the perfect high-low uniform
Photo-Illustration: Retailer White T-shirts get a lot of attention, but let’s not forget their equally versatile counterpart: the exceedingly wearable, deceptively simple black T-shirt. It’s a staple you can wear to work, the gym, and on a date. Plus, as Justin Vaughan, a perfumer and the founder of the incense brand Ponsont, puts it, a black tee is the perfect high-low uniform. “I can just as easily kick it with a farmer in Virginia as I can take a meeting in the city,” he says.
Weight: Depending on the season or just overall preference, the weight of a shirt is important to consider. As we’ve noted in our roundup of the very best white tees for men, “A thicker weave results in a heavier tee, while thinner strands of cotton create a more lightweight shirt.” Generally, three ounces is considered light, 4.5 to 5.3 ounces is medium, and six ounces and over is heavy. We’ve included plenty of options ranging from light- to heavyweight T-shirts.
If you prefer a V-neck , stylist Wouri Vice suggests this three-pack from one of the most classic T-shirt brands out there. “My favorite black T-shirt is Hanes — really,” he says. “But not just any Hanes. It has to be the Luxury Essentials V-neck, which starts out in the deepest of blacks and as it ages takes on the perfect softness and most beautiful faded black ever.” Vice told us he wears them casually with jeans or with a suit.
On the other side of the spectrum are heavyweight tees. This comes recommended by production designer Greg Jackson, who says “black T-shirts are a part of my daily uniform.” He prefers shirts on the looser side, which is why it’s his go-to. “It’s a heavyweight, 100 percent cotton T-shirt with an oversized boxy fit that’s also made in the USA,” Jackson says.
Another more sustainable option on our radars comes from the brand For Days. Antonio Nuño, a co-founder of the lifestyle brand Someone Somewhere, appreciates its sustainable business model “You can swap any style for a new one for $14, and they will recycle the one you send back.” His shirt of choice is its classic crew-neck tee that’s “soft but sturdy at the same time.” He has two words for the fit — “on point” — telling us the T-shirt “works well with almost any outfit.
“I wear so many black tees that I feel borderline tropical if I so much as branch out into gray palettes,” says musician and EMT Hayden Frank. His favorite of them all is Gap’s Essential V-Neck, which he says is one of the few he can find in a medium-tall size that works with his slender six-foot-four frame.
