9oz is a good winter weight for me, but 4-6 is all I can take in the warmer months. I do like having a few heavier t's, but no way I'm rocking a 9oz when it's 105°. Did you end up getting the CF or Buck Mason T's? |

Are the measurements the same regardless of fabric type? The fit guide on the website has the same measurements for all T shirt fabrics, but the description of the fabrics make it sound like the Pima is a slimmer fit and the slub is more relaxed. Confusing. |

Confusing. IIRC the fits were pretty damn consistent all across the board. I really liked the slub and the venice wash slub fabrics, easily my favorites. |

actually their grey triblend is pretty damn nice too but I sent that one back as that was the only one that seemed to be sized a bit different than the rest. It's been so long though I can't remember if they were sized larger or smaller than the other ones.

Just ordered the white slub venice wash in L. Not normally a fan of prewashed, but I liked the subtle off white of the washed version over the bright white of the regular slub. It's kinda the color I was looking for when I ordered an "ivory" T from Gustin but it ended up being closer to smoker teeth yellow. Don't worry ickes, I haven't ruled out a 3sixteen tee yet, I'll probably just wait until early fall when 9 oz. jersey seems more appropriate. |

Oh yeah about the weight of the 3sixteen's, yeah it's probably a bit thick for maybe 80ish and up??? It's definitely not crazy thick like an IHt-1600 which is 11oz. |

Got mine yesterday. Nice, lightweight fabric. Slub is pretty subtle. Happily the rounded shirttail is not very pronounced. I didn't even notice it at first. I don't think it's the end all be all of t-shirts, but better than Gustin.

Almost feels a little too feminine for a guys T shirt??? |

I noticed they've been clearing out stock recently, I assume to make way for fall/winter stuff. So I checked out the new sweaters and what do you know, they're imported. Dont even say from where. Looks like another company going the way of TS. I wonder if all their new items will be imports, I kind of want their Henleys. Yeah, that's kinda disappointing. They do have a little bit about why they outsource, but don't say where the garment is produced. It would be nice if they did. If it's Scotland or something, hey, no big deal. SE Asia would be more problematic. I don't typically associate Vietnam with a strong tradition of knitting sweaters. While discouraging, I wouldn't give up on Buck Mason yet. There aren't many sweaters made in USA. You can find them, but my guess is the US knitting industry ain't too big and would have a hard time handling an order from what seems to be a moderately sized (and growing) clothing company. EDIT: Their T-shirts are the second best brand I own, behind 3sixteen. I don't own anything else from them. This forum hates all things scooped, but I like the subtle scooped hem on my T. |

They make a T without the scoop now too.
