The gentleman’s T-shirt

MANILA, Philippines - The T-shirt is the most basic staple we have in our wardrobe that does not require broad rules. Finding the right one can surprisingly make your wardrobe choices easier. There’s really no telling what a great T-shirt can do. It can take you anywhere, day or night. Taste is subjective, but there’s a shirt for every taste and that is its magic. There are three things to consider if you’re faced with difficulty. Namely, it is important to consider what you are comfortable with and identify your own style. Just because it fits, it doesn’t necessarily mean it’s for you. Think about color, print and material.

Whether you’re a simple or dandier kind of guy, these straightforward tips will help you in finding the right element of great style.

The most common mistake we make is forgetting that T-shirts associated with universities, clubs and concerts (depends on the band, of course), to name a few, are best left where they belong.

Consider a refreshing choice with graphics done subtly. Prints gone wrong are always best to avoid unless your life says you are drifting. A large logo or brand name slapped in front or at the back of the tee looks very appreciative, but who would want to look like a walking billboard unless you are getting paid for it?

There is nothing purely wrong with slogans or expressive messages on tees that show how you feel, but they do not really express your style. Sometimes, a good-looking T-shirt can be found in the simplest plain-looking tee with the right material and technical cut for your body.

The T-shirts seen are divided into three categories: graphic, pattern and detail. Have fun, and remember: the right tee can go a long way.
