Best T-Shirt on Amazon: Amazon Essentials Classic-Fit T-Shirt (2-Pack‚
It’d be wrong of us not to lead with Amazon’s budget-friendly take on the basic crewneck T-shirt, which has more than 33,000 five-star reviews to back up its popularity. “Best. Decision. Ever!” one shopper says of this two-pack. “The material is thin but not see-through, stretchy, soft, and everything you want in a T-shirt. The length is perfect.” Sold.
Sizes: XS–XXL / Colors: Dozens of options / Material: 56% cotton, 38% modal, 6% spandex / Fit: Slim / Length: Crotch-length / Care: Machine wash
Style tip: This tee’s length and silhouette make it perfect for a casual tuck into jeans; go slightly off-center and let the other side and the back hang out.

Most Comfortable T-Shirt: Skims Fits Everybody T-Shirt
Original photo by Glamour associate beauty editor Danielle Sinay
If you’re not already a Skims loyalist, let this ultrasoft tee be your entryway. True to its name, it comes in plenty of sizes and with generous stretch to conform to any body size—and the material is undeniably soft. “It’s so cute, comfy, and genuinely flattering, making it the perfect basic piece to dress up or down,” raves Glamour associate beauty editor Danielle Sinay. “It’s also the literal only T-shirt I’ll wear in public, so do with that information what you will. My advice? Get several in different shades and style them with your favorite pair of baggy jeans. You’ll never be without an outfit idea—or uncomfortable—again.” Just note that it frequently sells out, so you might have to wait for a restock.
Sizes: XXS–4X / Colors: 11 options / Material: 76% polyamide, 14% elastane / Fit: Tight / Length: Hip-length / Care: Machine wash
Style tip: As Sinay says, this fitted top looks great with looser bottoms, including wide-leg jeans and flowy skirts. Keep your look elevated (and ready for virtually any casual occasion) with slim loafers and chunky gold earrings.

Best Value T-Shirt: Hanes Perfect-T
You probably have a few Hanes tees balled up at the back of your dresser—but none quite like this. The Perfect-T is the brand’s elevated take on the everyday tee, featuring slightly thicker fabric and a more tailored fit than the ones you typically find in its multipacks. “It’s soft and has a good fit that is not too tight or too loose,” one Amazon reviewer writes. Stick with classic white or choose one of 20 other colors.
Sizes: S–5X / Colors: 21 options / Material: 100% cotton / Fit: Relaxed / Length: Hip-length / Care: Machine wash
Style tip: This is about as basic as T-shirts get, so do anything you’d like—wear it under a blazer or cardigan, tuck it into trousers, or throw it on with sweats when you can’t be bothered.

Best Classic White T-Shirt: Reformation Classic Crew Tee
Reformation’s vintage-inspired bestseller is knit with 100% organic cotton and features a relaxed look that pairs exceptionally well with jeans. It also happens to be Glamour editor-in-chief Samantha Barry’s absolute favorite T-shirt, along with several other staffers. “My hunt for the perfect white tee ended the moment I put on this one from Reformation,” says Alaina Chou, a commerce producer at Bon Appétit and Epicurious. “I have slightly broader shoulders and often wear high-rise pants, so I was after a shirt that wouldn’t tug at my armpits, hit right around my waistline, and had enough weight to it to drape nicely while maintaining some structure. Now I want it in every color.”
Sizes: XS–XL / Colors: 5 options / Material: 100% organic cotton / Fit: Relaxed / Length: Hip-length / Care: Machine wash
Style tip: Wear this tee with any pants in your collection—or maybe a denim midiskirt if you’re feeling adventurous. Try court sneakers, trendy slingbacks, or pointed black booties to keep its luxe vibes going.

Best T-Shirt to Wear With Jeans: Abercrombie & Fitch Essential Easy Tee
Abercrombie’s loose T-shirt hits right at the hip and looks like true vintage, meaning it pairs well with denim of all stripes. Glamour senior news & entertainment editor Sam Reed owns three: “I’ve used them as a layering piece under sweaters and also worn them on their own. The boxy fit is just loose enough to be comfy but not so big that tucking is a problem. Just a solid, versatile piece!” she says. And while the brand has been dinged for including a high percentage of artificial fibers in some of its other clothes, this T-shirt is made entirely of cotton.
Sizes: XXS–XXL / Colors: 5 options / Material: 100% cotton / Fit: Loose / Length: Hip-length / Care: Machine wash
Style tip: Like we said, this shirt pairs well with pretty much any pair of jeans; fitted pairs contrast nicely with the tee’s more relaxed cut, while looser jeans maximize your comfort level. Either way, wear it with sneakers for your next low-key day.

Best Everyday T-Shirt: Uniqlo Supima Cotton Crewneck T-Shirt
You can buy the women’s version of this soft, refined tee from Uniqlo, but our staffers prefer the men’s cut. “[It’s] heavyweight enough to not be see-through, and it keeps its structure but isn’t bulky,” says Kelsey Hendershot, a senior manager at Vogue and Allure. And Glamour shopping editor Jake Smith says that it only gets better with each wash; he’s owned a few of them for years and “they’re still pretty much like new—the necklines don’t stretch and the material is still soft.” (They also look great under a black blazer.) Plus, both say the brand offers impressive quality for the price. Pro tip: Go a size or two down from your usual.
Sizes: XXS–3XL / Colors: 10 options / Material: 100% Supima cotton / Fit: Relaxed / Length: Hip-length / Care: Machine wash
Style tip: Thanks to its body-skimming (but not too tight) cut, this is one of the most professional tees on the market. Wear it under a cardigan or a blazer at the office.

Best Casual T-Shirt: Banana Republic Cotton Boyfriend T-Shirt
“I own and love a similar tee from Banana Republic, and I’m truly impressed by the quality—after a few washes, it’s lived-in rather than run-through,” Glamour’s Smith says. “The cotton is thick and feels luxurious, adding a little drama to any standard outfit; the slightly exaggerated sleeves are so editorial. Mine looks great with sweatpants and long pleated skirts alike.” Best of all, it’s available in petite sizing and three core colors: black, white, and on-trend butter yellow.
Sizes: XXS–XXL / Colors: 3 options / Material: 100% cotton / Fit: Oversized / Length: Hip-length / Care: Machine wash
Style tip: Try this one with pleated trousers or straight-leg jeans to keep your outfit structured. (It’s also a great pick for lounging at home with pajama pants, just saying.)

Best Oversized T-Shirt: FP Movement Inspire Tee
Meet the ultimate do-everything shirt—even if that means you’re wearing it to do nothing. The secret behind this much-loved fit (besides the dropped shoulders and curved hemline) is the 100% breathable cotton fabric, which drapes beautifully and is lightweight without being see-through. Whether you pair it with your trusty black leggings or sharp, structured trousers, it’s perfectly low-key.
Sizes: XS–XL / Colors: 21 options / Material: 100% cotton / Fit: Oversized / Length: Cropped / Care: Machine wash
Style tip: Because this tee is both cropped and oversized, it’s an ideal contrast to more fitted bottoms like leggings, bike shorts, and slim sweatpants.

Best Baby Tee: Tna HomeStretch Crew T-Shirt
“Style-wise, this T-shirt is the perfect complement to a pair of baggy jeans,” says Glamour commerce producer Leilani McQuay. “The stretchy fabric ensures both a flattering silhouette and ease of movement. It's incredibly comfortable and soft against my skin. Available in 16 colors and priced under $30, it’s a no-brainer.” That stretch comes from a bit of elastane thrown into the mix—but there’s enough cotton to ensure that this pick won’t fall apart after a few washes.
Sizes: XXS–2XL / Colors: 16 options / Material: 94% cotton, 6% elastane / Fit: Fitted / Length: Hip-length / Care: Machine wash
Style tip: Styling tees is a game of contrasts, so offset this more fitted top with looser bottoms—say, straight-leg jeans or roomy white denim.
- 10/36
Best Cropped T-Shirt: Leset Margo T-Shirt
“This is the best T-shirt ever,” says Kathleen Thomas, Glamour’s associate fashion editor. Why? “It’s not too short and not too long. Somehow Leset has cracked the code for every torso. It’s the perfect throw-on tee with jeans—or under a sweater where it peaks out just enough.” On top of being made from luxurious, durable cotton—a midweight knit that’ll age beautifully—it fits just as an everyday tee should: form-fitting, but with a subtly boxy silhouette that looks timeless. It’s no surprise, then, that A-listers like Taylor Swift, Margot Robbie, and Julianne Moore have all been spotted in it.
Sizes: XS–XL / Colors: 3 options / Material: Cotton / Fit: Relaxed / Length: Hip-length / Care: Hand wash
Style tip: This pick hits just slightly above the hips, meaning it’s great for showing off high-waisted trousers and mid-rise jeans; take a page from the street-style playbook and try trendy barrel denim.

Best Ribbed T-Shirt: Madewell Supima Rib Tee
Made from the same ribbed fabric as Madewell’s best-selling best-selling tank, this relative newcomer has become an instant favorite among the brand’s fans. The stretchy fabric is fitted without making you feel constricted, much like your favorite tank top, and it comes in a wide variety of colors without a dud in the bunch. Cap sleeves and a tight (but not constricting) neckline sell the shrunken effect even more.
Sizes: XXS–4X / Colors: 14 options / Material: Supima cotton, elastane / Fit: Tight / Length: Hip-length / Care: Machine wash
Style tip: Take a page from Hailey Bieber’s book and style yours with vintage jeans, chunky loafers, and crew socks to look like a ’90s supermodel.

Best 100% Cotton T-Shirt: Buck Mason Pima Slim Crew
This pick stands out from your usual plain white tee rotation with a slim fit and a thick, high-quality material, which give off just the right “I threw this on” energy—even if you spent an hour deciding on which denim skirt to tuck it into. The midweight fabric is made entirely from Supima cotton, meaning it’ll survive countless washes and only get softer as it ages. “I love the straight hem and the finished collar of the crewneck. Note that it's quite sheer, so I prefer to wear a cami underneath it ,” says Glamour commerce director Brie Schwartz.
Sizes: XS–XXL / Colors: 7 options / Material: 100% Supima cotton / Fit: Slim / Length: Hip-length / Care: Machine wash
Style tip: Lean into this tee’s California-cool pedigree with vintage jeans in faded blue or chic ecru.

Best Fitted T-Shirt: Good American Super Stretch Baby Tee
Want something form-fitting that doesn’t feel like being glued to a swath of cotton jersey? Enter Good American. “This tee is my go-to errands shirt; it pairs perfectly with a loose or baggy jean. It fits so well and is such a good option, too!” says Teen Vogue associate editor Aiyana Ishmael. “Its fit is a bit cropped, so it’s a fun shirt if you want to add a bit more spice to your look.”

Style tip: Go trendy with loose-fitting cargo pants or jeans; Instagram will eat it up.

Best Basic T-Shirt: Gap 100% Organic Cotton Vintage V-Neck T-Shirt
Gap is one of our favorite places to stock up on basics, like this organic cotton top. “This tee is under $20, available in so many colors, and something I can wear year-round,” says Glamour commerce writer Andrea Navarro. “In warmer months I can wear it alone since it’s so breathable, and in fall and winter I can layer it with other pieces and still be super comfortable.” Better yet, it’s available in three lengths: regular, tall, and petite.
Sizes: XXS–XXL / Colors: 9 options / Materials: 100% organic cotton / Fit: Relaxed / Length: Hip-length / Care: Machine wash
Style tip: This is a tucking tee through and through—whatever bottoms you end up choosing, it’ll look best tucked into them.

Best Lightweight T-Shirt: Madewell Whisper Cotton V-Neck Tee
This stretchy, impossibly soft option nails the relaxed, not-too-deep V-neck T-shirt look, and it’s available in a wide array of sizes. On top of being lightweight and airy, it’s also a favorite among our editors: “This is my favorite tee to throw over swimsuits in the summer since it doesn't cling and, frankly, hides sunscreen residue, and, well, sweat quite well. I've had mine for years and it washes super well without any wear or tear, but the hem does does get stretched out over time–still for the price, it's easy enough to replace, especially since it's often on sale,” Schwartz says.
Sizes: XXS–4X / Colors: 4 options / Material: 100% cotton / Fit: Relaxed / Length: Hip-length / Care: Machine wash
Style tip: Because it’s such a deep V-neck, this shirt lends itself nicely to relaxed outfits—think lightweight pants and trusty denim. It’s also an ideal layering piece with crewneck sweaters and button-downs, considering its collar won’t poke out.

Best Henley T-Shirt: J.Crew Vintage Rib Long-Sleeve Henley T-Shirt

Sizes: XXS–3X / Colors: 4 options / Material: 57% cotton, 38% modal rayon, 5% elastane / Fit: Slim / Length: Hip-length / Care: Machine wash
Style tip: Whatever you do, don’t button it all the way; leave at least two buttons undone for a lived-in, utilitarian vibe.

Best T-Shirt for Working Out: Lululemon Wundermost Long-Sleeve Shirt
It’s a fact of life: Athletic pursuits only get better when you’re wearing Lulu, and this long-sleeve T-shirt is especially worth your time. “If you thought Lululemon fabrics couldn’t get any softer, this long-sleeve is proof that yes, they really can,” Vogue senior commerce editor Talia Abbas says. “It fits snug, so size up if you want a less hugging sensation (though it’s meant to feel like a second skin). I look forward to wearing underneath sweaters and for skiing.”
Sizes: XS–XL / Colors: 7 options / Material: 79% nylon, 21% elastane / Fit: Tight / Length: Hip-length / Care: Machine wash
Style tip: You can wear this with any other athletic pieces in your collection, of course, but the brand also makes matching bottoms in a variety of cuts.

Best V-Neck T-Shirt: Bleusalt The Perfect V
This stretchy, impossibly soft option nails the relaxed, not-too-deep V-neck T-shirt look. “Bleusalt makes some of the softest T-shirts on the market,” says Glamour staff writer Hanna Lustig, who notes that it’s a favorite brand among celebrities like Cindy Crawford and Sophie Turner. “What really sets this tee apart, though, is the cut. The length is neither too long nor too short, and the neckline is low enough to be flattering without having to worry about exposing your cleavage when you bend over.”
Sizes: XXS–2X / Colors: 4 options / Material: 95% modal, 5% spandex / Fit: Tight / Length: Hip-length / Care: Machine wash
Style tip: We suggest getting a little sporty with this slim-fit tee; the stretchy material moves with you, so it’s great for an impromptu game of, say, pickleball. Try it with an athletic skirt and runner sneakers.

Best Muscle Tee: Massimo Dutti 100% Cotton Drop-Sleeve T-Shirt
Show off those arm tattoos with this 100% cotton muscle tee that looks incredible with wide-leg pants. “This T-shirt is a true gem; it exudes luxury despite its modest price tag,” Glamour’s McQuay says. “The fabric is truly soft, yet very durable. I adore the drop sleeves, which add a contemporary twist to the classic silhouette. I mainly style mine with a wide-leg pair of jeans and a statement belt; it achieves an effortlessly chic look.”

Best T-Shirt for Layering: Intimissimi Stretch Superior Cotton Short-Sleeve Top
“This year, I’m giving my baggy, oversized tees a break and reaching for more form-fitting tops,” Glamour’s Navarro says. “I love that this one looks so smooth once you slip it on, and I can easily keep it tucked into my jeans or pants without worrying about it bunching. It’s not too sheer nor too thick, making it a great year-round piece.” Just a note: The brand recommends drying this pick flat rather than putting it in the machine.
Sizes: S–L / Colors: 4 options / Material: 93% cotton, 7% elastane / Fit: Tight / Length: Hip-length / Care: Machine wash
Style tip: This short-sleeve tee is slim enough to layer under anything, but you don’t have to hide it away. Tuck it into more voluminous bottoms on warm days; it would look great with long skirts.

Best Vintage-Inspired T-Shirt: Alex Mill Scout Crewneck Tee
If you spend your days scouring thrift stores for single-stitch T-shirts, Alex Mill’s cotton tee is right up your alley. It features an old-school cut and textured cotton meant to evoke the feeling of a well-loved staple. “I never had a go-to tee until I stumbled upon the Alex Mill Scout tee at their store on Mercer Street,” says Katarina Kovac, a commerce producer at Architectural Digest. “The mix of cotton and recycled yarns gives it a heavyweight texture that feels like it will last for 30 years, and I’ve since bought it in five different colors. An 11 out of 10 for me!”
Sizes: XS–XXL / Colors: 7 options / Material: 100% cotton / Fit: Relaxed / Length: Hip-length / Care: Machine wash
Style tip: When you tuck this one into jeans, try wearing a belt to break up your outfit and add a little more visual intrigue.

Best Long-Sleeve T-Shirt: Hanes Originals Long-Sleeve Cotton T-Shirt
This fitted base layer would look great with a pair of trousers or under a sweater vest—and thanks to the fact that Hanes is so budget-friendly, you’ll probably be able to snag all of your favorite colors. Just note that the sizing runs small and these tees can shrink in the wash, according to reviewers, so go a size or two up if you’re on the fence. “My Hanes shirts have lasted forever—we’re talking since the early days of the pandemic—and they’re still going strong,” Glamour’s Smith says. “Despite the low price, they’re built to last.”
Sizes: XS–XXL / Colors: 9 options / Material: 100% cotton / Fit: Relaxed / Length: Hip-length / Care: Machine wash
Style tip: Try this one with elastic-waist pants for a Sunday outfit that’s just as cute as it is comfy—or layer it under a blazer for relaxed preppy looks.

Original photo by *Glamour *commerce director Brie Schwartz
There’s something so effortlessly cool about a cap-sleeve T-shirt, and this whisper-soft option from Club Monaco is your best bet. It’s ribbed and form-fitting and hits a little below the hip, making this a feminine alternative to more boxy, masculine cuts. “This is my absolute go-to.

My advice? Wait for it to go on sale and snatch a few."

“The Skims Soft Smoothing tee is the next best thing to naked in my opinion,” says Glamour art director Alexandra Folino. “I’ve tried to find dupes because I want it every shade imaginable, but haven’t had luck. It has a body-hugging fit and a nylon-spandex blend, so there's no unflattering pinching or uncomfortable tightness. A literal dream!”
Sizes: XXS–4X / Colors: 7 options / Material: 93% nylon, 7% spandex / Fit: Tight / Length: Hip-length / Care: Hand wash
Style tip: On your day off, go for the full Skims effect with the matching bottoms in the same material. Your body will thank you.

Best T-Shirt for Lounging: Aerie Extreme V-Neck Oversized Boyfriend T-Shirt
“I don't wear T-shirts often, but I do like this Aerie one since it has a slouchy vibe to it,” Teen Vogue’s Ishmael says. “Anything that can be a good layering piece or be dressed up or down is what I prefer.” And this one hits those marks, with a super-relaxed neckline that’ll make you look low-key whether you’re cuddling on the couch or meeting friends for brunch.
Sizes: XXS–XXL / Colors: 6 options / Material: 100% cotton / Fit: Relaxed / Length: Hip-length / Care: Machine wash
Style tip: If you want to look put-together, go for more structured bottoms like pleated khakis or rigid jeans, then throw on some dainty jewelry.

Best Swing T-Shirt: Amazon Essentials Relaxed-Fit Scoopneck Swing T-Shirt
Add some understated elegance to your look with this relaxed scoop-neck tee. Shoppers love its slightly longer length and wide range of colors, plus the perfectly draped bottom half. And if the weather’s too chilly to wear this on its own, no worries—the neckline is wide enough that it won’t show under sweaters and button-downs, adding extra warmth without any bulk.
Sizes: XS–XXL / Colors: 23 options / Material: 95% rayon, 5% elastane / Fit: Fitted top with loose bottom / Length: Crotch-length / Care: Machine wash
Style tip: Because this tee is long enough in the back to hide your “assets,” feel free to wear it with your favorite leggings and any other athleisure that might lean sheer.
