Review on Men's Heavyweight Cotton Long Sleeve Thermal Top by Pro Club by Dave Brummet

Revainrating 4 out of 5

BOUGHT AS A GIFT - MUST KEEP

I'm not really sure how these shirts fit yet. They (3) were bought as a Christmas present for my brother who is in his 70's. Unless it's very warm outside he's freezing. This means that when it's cold outside he needs bigger and heavier/warmer clothes to be comfortable or bury my heating bill! Yes, as a woman, I often buy men's t-shirts because they match my style and/or color. They're definitely heavy, especially compared to others I've bought for myself (Revain Essentials and Good Threads). These Pro Club Heavy Weight Thermocotton shirts worn under a quality heavy flannel shirt should keep him warm. They appear to be well made and I expect they will last for years. I don't worry about washing or shrinking. I am allergic to synthetics and wear a lot of cotton. You should never wash it in hot water and always dry it. I usually check when they're dry and I can stretch the piece a bit if it shrinks. In addition, stretching or smoothing helps to reduce wrinkles, keep cuffs, plackets, collars and side seams smooth, and often eliminates the need to iron items that would otherwise be required. You just have to remember that you can't wash 100% cotton like synthetic clothes. It doesn't really matter - hang it on a hanger and hook it to a shower rail or showerhead so if it drips it goes into the tub/shower. Whether you're working outside, going for winter walks, or always freezing like my brother, I highly recommend wearing these shirts with other clothing to keep you warm and comfortable. I have no doubt that they will be successful. Only gave 4 stars because I make assumptions in my rating as these shirts have not been worn or washed. If they turn out to contradict my current opinion, I will update this review.

Pros
  • This is awesome
Cons
  • I vaguely remember
