“The best kind of T-shirt is the type you had as a kid at school, that starts off feeling like a cardboard box but 10 years later you’re still wearing it because it has softened without stretching out of shape,” says Susan Dimasi, the designer and founder of Material By Product.
That’s the kind of T-shirt I dream about. One that I’ve had for years, that still fits but the fabric is worn and draped so it looks, well, cool. Dimasi says to achieve this, a T-shirt has to be made with a high-quality dense cotton and have properly constructed seams.
