T-Shirts — SuperBuy Guide
Oversized blanks, vintage washes and graphic layers.
T-shirts are the entry point for most spreadsheet buyers because the cost barrier is low and the risk feels manageable. But even simple tees have variables that matter: fabric weight, shoulder-to-shoulder measurement, collar rib width, and print technique. In 2026, vintage-wash blanks and boxy oversized cuts dominate. This section explains how to distinguish screen-printed graphics from heat-transfer prints, why collar stretch matters after multiple washes, and how to interpret 'one-size' oversized listings that actually fit like a dress on smaller frames.
Popular Directions in T-Shirts
Trends and sub-types worth knowing before you start browsing.
Oversized Blanks
Wide body, dropped shoulders and extended sleeves.

Ribbed cuffs and mock-neck options for layering.
Buying Tips for T-Shirts
Practical advice to avoid common sizing, shipping and QC mistakes.
Compare shoulder width to your chest
For an oversized look, the shoulder seam should sit 6–10 cm past your natural shoulder. Anything beyond that becomes a dress.
Distinguish print types
Screen prints feel slightly raised and breathe better. Heat transfers sit flat and can crack at the edges after washes.
Check collar rib width
A 2.5–3 cm rib collar holds shape better than a 1.5 cm one. Narrow ribs stretch out faster.
QC Checklist — T-Shirts
Inspect these details in your warehouse photos before you approve shipping.
Print alignment
On graphic tees, the print should be centered both horizontally and vertically relative to the chest.
Collar seam finish
The neck seam should be covered or taped. Exposed raw edges fray quickly.
Hem stitch consistency
Bottom hem should have even double-needle stitching without skipped stitches.
