so as i've been growing older, i notised myself going away from wearing 3 2XL t-shirts that go down pretty low on daily bases. I mean, i rock large stuff all the time when im skiing, but when i go out or even just go to school, i purchase tees and dress shirts that have the fashion(slim) fit.
As some of you may know, i already make some clothing that is ski-related and its huge.... the hoodies are enormous. I wanted to hear your opinion on what you guys think about fitted stuff?

I really like wearing tall tee's. like no xxxxxxxxl, but you know, a normal t-shirt that fits me that just longer than a normal t. that way I can sag my pants and no one see my boxers when they walk behind me. I hate the slim fit stuff, but normal fit would be alright i guess.

wow i really like the direction you are going with your clothing. sounds exactly like something i'd want to buy.
again i agree with most of the people on here that say they like the fit of a smaller size but find the size bigger better fit legnthwise. and the part about the slim fit sleeves not being long enough, so true!
i wear size large or extra large t shirts depending on who makes them. i'm 6'0" 180 and 21 years old.

for me the perfect size of a t-shirt would be a little bit in between a medium and a large. i like a shirt that isn't too small and isn't too baggy. its so hard for me to find nice shirts that fit exactly how i want them. i'm usually trying to stretch out my medium shirts and shrink my large shirts. just to get the sleeves almost down to the right angle made when i bend my arm so my forearm is perpendicular to my body. and for length i like to have my shirts almost down the the bottom of my butt. and i'm 5'9" 135 lbs by the way. hope this helps

I just checked the tags on some of my shirts and the slim ones are AA. The XL one i have is a little bit slim but not too too slim. The large is fairly slim. But I reallly like the quality of their t-shirts. Its the combed cotton which is so comfortable and it fits great.

i'm 20, 5'11", 150 lbs and i wear size large for pretty much everything. i like the thinner, softer shirts that have been coming out a lot, but the slim fit only works if the length of the large is still there. a lot of the time it seems like it's just companies pawning off their mediums as larges and putting a special name on it. if it doesn't reach at least past my belt, it's too small. i like baggy shit for the most part, but i can definitely see what you're saying as far as wearing it out to a bar.
just please don't do the lame "cracked paint faux-vintage" look that so many companies are doing. it's lamer than pre-ripped jeans. well, close at least.

my problem with the fitted T's is that the sleeves are ridiculously short and even if you're pants aren't sagged at all they still don't cover your boxers. But it is nice that they aren't super baggy

haha yeah it is. I try on everything i get there because everything is just a little different, and then when i wash them and hang dry, they all shrink up differently. my dream is to find high quality slim long t shirts. Like AA prewash but beter

I used to like baggy cloths when I was 13-16, but I outgrew it.
Thing is I am in college now and I want people to take me seriously. Becuase of that I dress more conservativly.

in this point in my life, i wear mostly tee's that are way to big on me, usually tall tee's, i hate when you get an XL and it's short but mad wide, so tall tee's are deff the way to go. I'm sure many, many kids would be interested in slim fit tee's seeing as at my private school i go to, almost every single kid wears a slim fit tight as hell tee. So i think you'd do fine selling a slim fit

baggy shit has never been in style imo.
If you look at what Junk apparel have done, they make shirts where the shirt bottom isn't hemmed up so it naturally rolls up a bit, in addition their seams are inside out which looks dope and is comfortable.
I'm 5'9" 140lbs and I'm 22 and I quietly chuckle when I see kids baggin and saggin. I really don't get that trend but whatever.
I usually rock 30 waist (28 actual) slim jeans when im not on the job.
