so I set myself the challenge to find the best T-shirt for the summer for under £50 my only criteria was they had to be easy to buy online and under £50 simple I've got eight t-shirts to show you and by the end of the video I will be crowning one of them the winner and to help me decide which t-shirt is going to win Top t-shirt I'll be giving them a score out of 20 and rating them on their fit the quality their value for money and their comfort if you like this video at any point please feel free to drop it a like and now that's all out the way let's get into the t-shirts so for my measurements I'm 6 foot and I weigh around 80 kilos I've also got a 30in waist if that helps and a 40-in chest I picked up all of the t-shirts in my regular size a size medium and let's get right into it oh and if you're thinking what are those silly things on his feet then they're my slippers I'm at home and I want to be cozy okay so the first t-shirt we've got comes in at £14. 90 and it's from Unico now everyone probably knows about Unico t-shirts by now there more than enough content about them online but I'm going to add some more and I know a lot of people love the airism te's and the oversized airism te but for me it's all about the UT yes it's not the softest t-shirt out there but people talk about this tea like it's made from sandpaper which I think is a tad dramatic sure it's a little rough compared to some of the other t-shirts on the market and on this list but it's not uncomfortably rough if that makes sense it's made from 100% cotton which is nice and it's got a heavier weight to it and and a slightly relaxed fit I won't bang on about these too much because we all know about them by now but I always love the neckline on these it's double stitched it's got a great shape to it and you don't have to worry about it losing its shape now I have had some problems with inconsistent sizing with these t-shirts in the past but the latest batch have been all very consistent but let's give it a score out of 20 well for Comfort I'm going to give it a 2. 8 it's not the best but it's not going to stop me wearing it for Quality I think these hold up great especially for the price but there is better on this list so I think a 3.
8 is fair for fit I'm going to give it a 4. 5 and I think the fit actually gets better on these the more you wash them and wear them too and finally for the value it's got to be a five there isn't much out there at this price that will beat this so it's a great affordable option to have and I love wearing these so the total score comes to 16. 1 out of 20 and let's move on so next up we've got a couple of t-shirts from abomi and the first is their vintage inspired t-shirt now this t-shirt is more of a midweight t-shirt it's oversized and really flowy and it's ridiculously comfortable I think this t-shirt's got a really nice shape to it and a really nice car and I don't normally wear oversized te's but I really like this one the sleeves and the length are well proportioned with one another and I love the exposed seams that give it that vintage look also worth mentioning is that neckline it's got a really nice look to it it's got those exposed seams on it again and it's small details like this that make a t-shirt for me it's also made from 100 % cotton and if for whatever reason you don't like black t-shirts then this t-shirt comes in a load of different colors so you're spoiled for choice anyway it's time for a score so for Comfort I'm going to give this one a five I can't fault it for Quality I'll give it a 3.
8 it's nice but again there's better on this list for fit as I said I don't usually wear oversized te's and although this is solid for an oversized T I think I'm going to have to give it a 3. 6 for me personally and finally for Value this cost 20 2 which I think is a really decent price for what you're getting so I'm going to give it a 4. 5 for Value so this gets a 16.
9 out of 20 which is a really high score but is it enough to win well you have to stay tuned to find out the tension's unbearable I'm on the edge of my seat and I know the results let's move on so the next t-shirt I picked up from ABAC cromi is their heavyweight crop tea this t-shirt comes in at £35 which is on the pricier side but I don't mind paying a bit more when the quality is good and there's something interesting going on with the T-shirt like it is here it does have a very fashion forward cut and the cut might be a little bit too much for me a little bit too extreme the sleeves are a little bit long for my liking but I do like them once I've given them a single Cal but I know a lot of you guys love longer sleeves so this isn't going to be a problem for you the quality feels nice it's got a good thickness to it but it's still really nice and soft so it's very comfortable it's made from 100% cotton and the neckline is ribbed and double stitched so it's not going to lose its shape which is great and I Absolut absolutely love the Vintage wash this has got and the exposed seams add some really nice detail there's a lot going on with this t-shirt to be honest again if you don't like the color of this t-shirt for whatever reason they've got plenty of other colors online so again you're spoiled for choice and by the way if you want to check out any of these t-shirts for yourself there will be links to all of them in the description box but anyway what about a score so for Comfort I'm going to give this one or four it's comfortable but the sleeves can get a little bit annoying for Quality I'll give it a 3. 9 it's solid for fit I'm going to have to go for a 3. 2 I wish they hadn't gone so over the top with the sleeves but maybe this is just me and for Value it is fairly pricey but there's a lot going on here so I do think the price is fair if this style is for you of course but I'm going to go for a 3.
8 for Value but if you like longer sleeves and a bigger crop then this score is going to look a lot different for you but it's getting a 14. 9 out of 20 from me next up we've got an online favorite so I had to pick it up and it's the pocket T from carart work in progress so the obvious thing about this t-shirt is it does have the car heart branding on it which some people might not like I don't mind some small branding on a pocket tea and when it's a brand like carart they're a classic brand so I'm happy to wear their logo on my chest it's made from 100% cotton it's got a nice mid to heavyweight feel to it and I will say this one does feel very nice it definitely feels more premium than the other t-shirt so far the fit is slightly relaxed and pretty basic but sometimes that's exactly what what you want so no complaints there and this one comes in at £35 which isn't the cheapest but we all know car heart products are really well made so you know it's going to last so anyway time for a score for Comfort it's a five it feels really silky against my skin and I'm loving it for Quality I'll give this a 4. 5 it's really nice quality for fit I'm going to give it a 3.
7 it's decent but there's nothing blowing me away here and for Value I'm going to give it a four so the total for the car heart pocket te is 17. 2 out of 20 not bad so let's move on to cos next so I've tried quite a lot of t-shirts from COs in the past and my favorite is still the brush cotton tea it's not perfect but I'll talk about why in just a second but let's talk about the good parts first so it's 100% cotton and it's ridiculously soft I'd say this t-shirt has more of a lighter weight to it but I think the lighter weight works perfectly for this car it's got a Slimmer and regular fit but I do like that kind of fit when I want to smarten things up a bit and I do wear this t-shirt for a smarter look for a basic t-shirt the sleeve length is decent the neckline is double stitched but not bulky so it looks sleek I always worry with lightweight teas and brush cotton teas that they're going to lose their shape and lose their softness in the wash but that hasn't been the case here I put this t-shirt through the wash hundreds of times and it's held up really well but now for the downside because this t-shirt is a brush cotton t-shirt it picks up hairs very easily nothing a limp roller can't sort out but but a little bit irritating so I thought I'd mention it anyway let's give it a score so for Comfort it's a five it feels delicious for Quality I'll give it a 3. 8 it holds up really well but it could be better for fit I'll give it a 3.
5 it's good it has its place in my wardrobe but it's nothing special and for Value coming in at £25 I think that's really fair you know what else is fair a 3. 8 so that's what I'll give it for Value so in total that's 16. 1 out of 20 next up we've got what was my favorite t-shirt of 2023 and it's the arat heavyweight tea I wear this t-shirt to death but it's not perfect is there such thing as the perfect t-shirt though maybe there's still one to come on this list oh the tension is killing me anyway this is a heavyweight 100% cotton t-shirt but unlike a lot of heavyweight te's this one is really soft the cut is fantastic in my opinion and it's a really versatile t-shirt and that's one of the main reasons I wore it so much in 2023 it's not cropped but it does have a short to length I love the length and the shape of the sleeves and the ever so slightly wider neckline the downside with this t-shirt though is with the neckline but it's not a major downside but basically whenever I wash this t-shirt the neckline comes out a little bit wrinkled which I don't like it does flatten out as you wear it so not a huge problem but I prefer it without this problem another downside worth mentioning is the white version of this t-shirt doesn't hold up as well as the Black Version after putting both t-shirts through the wash the white one comes comes out feeling a lot rougher thinner and it loses its shape quite a lot more so I don't like the white one so let's give it a score and I will be rating the black one not the white one so for comfort for me it's a five for Quality it's a tricky one because these hold up so well but that neckline so it's got to be a 3.
8 I love the fit of this tea it's one of my favorites so it's got to be a five and for Value it's £27 so not cheap but I get so much wear out of it it's so versatile St so I've got to give it a 4. 8 so the total of this tea is 18. 6 out of 20 that's a big score but is it enough next up we've got the short boxy te from weekday now this t-shirt is 100% cotton it feels more like a midweight t-shirt and it's very comfortable the material doesn't feel quite as nice as some of the other t-shirts on this list it does feel cheaper but not bad but the cut on this t-shirt for me is pretty much spot-on I love the length it's cropped but not too cropped it's got the perfect boxiness to it and I love the sleeves I love a shorter sleeve that doesn't cling to my biceps and they're perfect on this t-shirt the neckline isn't doing a lot but it doesn't really need to it's just nice and I don't have much else to say about this t-shirt apart from I really like the shape of it so let's give it a score so for Comfort I give it a 3.
8 it's comfortable but nothing memorable for Quality it's got to be a 3. 5 the material doesn't feel the nicest but weak day te's usually hold up very well for me for fit it's got to be a five for me I love the fit and for Value this is £18 so a great price so I'm going to have to go with a five so that's a big score for the week dat te coming in with a total of 17. 3 which puts it in second place currently so next up we've got the most expensive t-shirt on the list from Lady white and it comes in at £49 but is the extra cost going to be worth it well we're about to find out so this is their tubil t-shirt and you can feel this t-shirt is really well made tubil just means it's got no side seam so it's got a really nice shape to it and it comes pre-shrunk so you don't have to worry about shrinkage which is always nice but always follow the care label on the t-shirt it's made from 100% cotton and it's a midweight tea coming in at 6 oz but it does feel on the heavy side to me and when it comes to fit this is the most basic fitting tea of the bunch but in a really good way it fits me really well and it hugs me in all the right places and I really like the fit of it I was hoping the sleeves would be a bit more like the weekday t-shirt and I was expecting it from the images on the website but my guns seem to be filling out the sleeves nicely but I love the body length I love the length of the sleeves and the neckline acts as the cherry on the top it's double stitched so it's not going to lose its shape and it does look really good quality now this t-shirt does feel a little bit rough but nothing like the Unico UT and it does break in after you wear it and wash it anyway I'm rambling on now so let's give this one a score for Comfort I'd say it's got to be a 3.
5 because it is a little bit rough for call it has to be a five and for fit I'm going to give it a four I really like the fit of this for a basic tea but it could be too simple at times and for Value it is expensive but it's really good quality but I wouldn't want to spend 50 Quid on it so for that reason I'm going to give it a 3. 2 for Value so in total that gives this t-shirt a 15.
