About the unisex AS Staple tee
Regular fit

100% combed cotton (marles 15% viscose)
Neck ribbing, side seamed, shoulder to shoulder tape, double needle hems, preshrunk to minimise shrinkage
The fit
The Staple cut has some elasticity in it and can feel a little huggy straight out of the box - depending on your preference, this might feel like a good or a bad thing! We've spent some time testing the fit, and after a couple of wears the fabric starts to loosen up, and after an initial wash it is fully relaxed. We think it's a great, durable tee that holds its shape well.
If you like a looser fit you might like to consider looking at one size above your usual. Have a look at the sizing charts and compare the dimensions to one of your old favourites to get a better sense of things.

Larger sizes (4XL & 5XL)
Currently the AS Staple range stops short at 3XL, and while they do offer similar cuts in these sizes, the colour range is pretty conservative (white, navy, marle & black only). We want to cater to everyone, so for better colour options we may need to print some designs on different stock - this will be indicated on the product pages.
