Review on Gildan Cotton Pocket T-Shirt 2-Pack by Darrell Kiley

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Comfortable, inexpensive, safe, green t-shirt with a cotton blend pocket that is clearly visible when worn

As a cotton blend t-shirt, it is comfortable to wear , washes well after a few months, and since it's not 100% cotton, it wicks some moisture from sweat or rain. Expecting it to dry quickly is unrealistic when wet; Shirts without cotton absorb moisture faster but are uncomfortable to wear in hot and humid weather. For the asking price (less than $10 for 2 shirts) just buy it; Now add to shopping cart. FYI, Revain also sells a similar t-shirt from Gildan that includes the workwear t-shirt in the DryBlend name (also in a cotton blend); Apart from the fact that it doesn't have a tag and this one doesn't, I don't see any difference, not even in color, between two different shirts. The photo of another workwear model is NOT that bright, the photo has been edited by greatly increasing the saturation (brightness of the colors), which is misleading; To emphasize that they are the same color the cotton blend shirts just aren't as shiny/reflective which is a sign of photomontage and should be corrected. There is currently another t-shirt on sale (DryBlend Workwear) for less than this one, so I've just ordered two more 2-packs so I don't have to wash as much. I mainly use these green safety t-shirts for cycling, they are more comfortable than non-cotton cycling shirts. Add these 2 packs to your cart if you're happy with the label on the back, or order another if you don't like the label or prefer not to cut it. My attached photo of the three shirts is the same Gildan 50/50 blend, two folded shirts washed the same number of times over several months. The one on the left is this shirt folded to the right, it's work clothes like the one in the background, brand new, all the same color, all look the same down to the tag or no tag.

Pros
  • Double needle on the left side of the chest 5-point pocket
Cons
  • Quality
