Tall people! what t-shirts do you recommend?

Fed up with buying t-shirts that fit ok JUST, but couple washes and they're too short.

I'm 6'4", slim to medium

My brother (6' 8") has had a few things from there that he's been quite pleased with.

might not be everyones taste but im same size as you and find these really good. https://donelondon.co.uk/ long enough in the body. If you don' t like their prints maybe ask them for some blanks (they are a print co too) in a few different colours.

Same problem, I often find the neck too wide on an xl, even if the body is long and narrow enough.

I'm always stretching t-shirts after the spin cycle and hanging them rather than putting them in the dryer.

I'm 6'3"
Topman make tall/long and ive a long sleeved t shirt from them is actually too long.

Fruit of the loom ive also had tall/long from. Also M&S online has a tall option, but i needs ordered, i think you can also do that in the bigger stores, and they do keep some items that size. Ask I suppose. Great for trousers/cargo/joggers.

One of the brands a lot of printers use is Gildan - one of their ringspun t-shirts just arrived in the post from Teespring today and its nice and long

laid flat on the floor a large is 55cm wide and 75sm long, a medium is 51 wide and 72 long a small is 46cm wide and 70cm long so see if that compares favourably to tshirts you already have but its a good bit longer than most of my other thirts

Gildan sell quite a wide range of styles of tee and hoodies but don't really market themselves direct to consumers, they're more of a bulk seller to printers but you can pick them up in plain colours on ebay.

The long one I've just bought says 'Gildan Softsyle Ringspun' on the label.

I’m always stretching t-shirts after the spin cycle and hanging them rather than putting them in the dryer.

That seems to be a peculiar feature of some t-shirts - they fit when you buy them and they change shape in the wash. I had a merino shirt from the middle of  Aldidl / Laldi that got shorter and wider with every wash

If you want a bike related one, I've got one from Enigma Cycles which is really nice, slim fit and plenty long (I'm 6'4").
