The New York Times - Our favorite white T-shirts

There are hundreds of men’s white T-shirts out there. Here are a few of our favorites:

• A crowd-pleaser: Every single one of our testers loved this well-fitting and comfortable J.Crew tee, although some people might find its thin fabric, while still opaque, too lightweight.
• A high-end, splurge-worthy tee: This Lady White Co. T-shirt feels unquestionably luxe. It's not quite a true, bright white like the other T-shirts we tested—it has more of a slightly off-the-beaten-path, vintage jersey look that we ended up loving.
• A cheap tee: This Bella + Canvas tee is just $9 and comes in a wide range of sizes, from XS to 5XL. Despite the affordable price, it has solid construction and nice stitching.

Over the course of six months, we considered scores of women’s white T-shirts in a wide variety of styles. Here are several we love:

• A stylish cropped tee: This Buck Mason boxy crew emerged as the obvious favorite with our panel. This ridiculously soft, lightweight Supima cotton shirt is a joy to wear. (We recommend sizing up!)
• A budget tee that gets the job done: Though most under-$15 shirts we tested were pretty lousy in terms of both fit and quality, this Hanes T-shirt was the notable exception.
• A splurge-worthy slim crew: Of all the $50–$100 shirts we tested, Rag & Bone’s tee felt the most worthy of its lofty price tag. The fabric drapes beautifully, feels soft against the skin, and is opaque enough to conceal a nude bra.
