Here at RibbedTee HQ, we’ve been working hard to create new and innovative undershirt designs that address some of the biggest problems with today’s standard undershirts (not keeping you cool, not fitting right everywhere, not staying tucked in, bunching up, and gathering).

Earlier this year, we first introduced our Classic Fit undershirts (a more slender fitted undershirt). In late June, we released our Enhanced Fit version (ideal for standard to larger body types) that offers slightly wider dimensions in the shoulders, torso, waist, and provides more room in the underarm area.

Well, we’re back with some more exciting news:

1. RibbedTee has gone extra, extra long!* To help out our taller friends who just can’t find an undershirt long enough to stay tucked in, we’ve recently added over 2.5″ in length to all of our new undershirts. In addition, we’ve also made some improvements to our Classic Fit undershirts by increasing the shoulder width and providing additional room in the underarm areas.

   [Update: Check out our various product pages for more information on our selection of longer undershirts and women’s tops:

I recently landed my first real office job and noticed that a lot of my colleagues wear T-shirts or “wife-beaters” underneath their dress shirts. What’s the deal? Is it fashionable, or not, to wear something underneath a dress shirt? And if it is, are there any rules to follow when picking which one to wear?

Chris provides his reader with the following advice:

Firstly, men who tend to sweat excessively wear undershirts to prevent sweat stains from becoming visible throughout the day. Other guys wear them to save on dry cleaning because undershirts help keep the sweat and other natural body odors from penetrating the shirt, keeping it clean for a longer amount of time…more here

…But if you do wear a T or sleeveless shirt (also known as a wife-beater) underneath your dress shirt, then the general rule is that it should be as sheer or thin as possible.

…Also, steer clear of undershirts that feature thicker and more apparent seams around the arms and collar because they tend to stand out more. Finally, you should wear a low-cut V-neck undershirt when wearing a dress shirt sans tie.

Gosh, did Chris know about the special features of the RibbedTee undershirt? It sounds like he’s describing them to a “tee” (no pun intended).

• “thin as possible” – we pride ourselves on making our undershirts with a specially designed super-soft 6.0 ounce 2×1 ribbed cotton. This allows us to provide you with an extremely comfortable, form fitting undershirt that breathes so it keeps you cool all day long and won’t show through your outwear.
• “steer clear of undershirts that feature thicker and more apparent seams” – no thick seams on our undershirts! We have purposely designed our shirts with flat, low-profile seams around the neck collar line as well as around the arms and bottom.
• “low cut v-neck” – Check. We offer both types of collars (crew neck and v-neck) to choose from.

Great advice from an expert in the fashion world. Check out one of our product pages for a full list of features we offer in our undershirts.
