I have JC***W, GAP,BR shirts and G shirts. I like the G shirts a lot. I do like the cut of the JC shirts a lot but I agree with you on the price, so I only ever buy those on sale. The GAPS are just crap though. I have not bought BR in a very long time but I do have a couple from them that are super soft and I like a lot. Those other 3 mass market brands come in Tall sizing so that helps me out too. I'd rank them as G,JC,BR,GAP THis would be nice if they were V's.  |

Oh, hahaha! Ivory might work on me then! I don't really have that problem. So that's what it means... Honestly, no, not really. I just want good feeling and nice looking solid colored tees. I really just saw that Gustin's tees and J Crew's tees are expensive and have an imperfect look to them and I wanted to know what else is good. I guess the Gustin tees also seem like good deals and that's a huge appeal of them to me. I'll have to watch out for the crocking on the Pigment dyed tees! I think I like the heather pack. That looks nice for sure. But if not for the color, are there other nice feeling, solidly constructed, and nice colored tees you could recommend? I rather have the pima softness from the BR tees with color haha. You may get close with the 100% cotton tees from gustin, but you'll never get near Pima with the tri-blends (I believe all the heathered tees are tri-blend). I don't think the tri-blends are bothersome but brentkuz would rather wear barbed wire. |

I don't like v necks personally so it'd been for me had I not been in need of plum ish and greenish colors personally. The tri-blend might be good. They have interesting colors. The pima cotton tees just seem so substantial compared to the Gustin USA tees I have tbh I don't know what can top them. Anything similar that you could recommend maybe? Are there other tees that feel gray and have a good color range? |

I have that 3144 pack and they look nothing like the pics. The plum is more marbled and schreachy, the blue is royal blue in your face and the sage is almost Black.....its dark.
The best pack by far is the pigment dyed blue, rose, Moss. Im getting another pack of that.

Anyone had problems with holes developing in their tees? 4 of my 10 t-shirts have developed holes.

I've had the G indigo tees for about a year now (the two-pack www.weargustin.com/store/1513). I put one out in the sun for several weeks last summer and it faded like crazy. Looks awesome and I really like not having both of the shirts look the same. The shirt on the left has had normal wear along with regular machine washing/drying. The shirt on the right was sun-soaked.   |

Got a three pack of v-necks recently; all the V's are off set by a quarter inch or so making them look ridiculous. I work healthcare and they'll work as undershirts with my scrubs but I don't expect to be wearing them anywhere else. Going to stick with the crews from now on.

I got the white, black, and heather grey pocket pack and they are fine. Nothing special. They are not particularly substantial at 5oz. I was kind of ruff with the white one the other day taking it off and I heard a tear in the collar but haven't noticed anything of it. |

Dang, raised the price on the pigment-dyed Ts! I think they were always two prices depending on the type. My first pack was $42. |

Anyone experience their pigment dye Tees coming in under spec? I wear a large and the measurements indicate a size small with the chest being 43-44. I've ordered other Gustin Tees last year with the fits being spot on. Lately several of my pigment dye packs are coming in off spec.

But otherwise effectively identical in spec. |

Anyone get the pigment-dyed #6? It is supposed to contain faded green, but the one T-shirt is grey... Looks like the faded grey from other runs. Wondering if this was an inadvertent switch, or if the faded green dying just didn't work out.

Could you copy paste a pic of that, i re-read it and cant see mentioning of green.
"We accidentally over-dyed our heather grey v-neck tees with faded grey, ivory and aquamarine pigment colors"

Looks like I got the #6 pack as well. No green was ever supposed to be in the trio, just two shades of grey and aquamarine. The colors ain't bad, but the construction of mine are abysmal. That's the offset V's I mentioned further up this thread.
