Review on πŸ‘· Handyman Accessories T-Shirt from Grandpa Workshop by John Vann

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Purely Classic T-Shirt matches clothes

This is an old-fashioned classic t-shirt. It is made almost entirely of cotton and appears to be 100%. This material has a softness that shirts made from synthetic real plastic material cannot match. The lettering looks like it's screen printed, again a classic touch of 1970s style. The size is exactly what I expect from an XL. The material is thin which is important to me as we have hot weather here. This not only makes the shirt cooler, but also allows perspiration to evaporate easily. For example, I spent several hours mowing the lawn in fairly hot weather. This action leaves most of my 100% or near-100% cotton t-shirts soaked through, and soon I have an uncomfortably sticky feeling that takes hours to dry. This shirt was only 25% damp when I finished because most of the sweat had already evaporated and was cooling me. I mowed. The residual moisture has disappeared after about half an hour. The shirt has never had the uncomfortable wet rag feel that comes from getting wet with heavier cotton. I don't appreciate the t-shirt saying as it's entirely subjective, but my wife says it's so accurate for me that I should have it on all my t-shirts. I will say that the inscription is well done. Washing in a front-loading washing machine and tumble drying did not adversely affect the size, color or lettering of the shirt. This is a simple but great shirt.

Pros
  • Comfortable
Cons
  • Not as good as it promises
