Review on πŸ‘• Dickies Men's Heavyweight T-Shirt X-Large - Clothing Shirts by Mike Larkin

Revainrating 1 out of 5

But great shirts. Suitable for clothing

I love these shirts. Now I have about 12 different dark colors. They fit great and are beautifully finished. The material, while thicker than usual, isn't heavy or suffocating in the heat. However, they have two problems: 1) Colors fade, and some of them do so very quickly. Gray seems to hold up best. Green and brown tones lose color saturation with each wash. 2) These things are OIL MAGNETS. You might not notice anything as you wear it or wash it, but later it's not uncommon to pick a 'clean' garment off the hanger and notice a few stains and then toss it straight into the trash. None of my other shirts, from cheap 100% cotton tees to polyester blends, do this. For both points I only deduct one star because otherwise I love these shirts very much. There must be something other manufacturers do to protect their fabrics, but Dickies doesn't. I currently keep a bottle of Grandma's Secret GS7001 Laundry Spray 16oz next to the washing machine. I've found this to work quite well. Usually.

Pros
  • Like everything before
Cons
  • For old
