Why a basic tee shirt shouldn't be cheap

When it comes to wardrobe staples, the humble tee shirt is at the top of the list. But not all tees are created equal—especially when it comes to quality, comfort, and durability. At thrift.mt, we believe in offering premium 250gsm tee shirts at a fair price of €27. Here’s why investing in a higher-quality basic tee truly matters.
1. Quality You Can Feel
One of the first things you’ll notice about a heavier, 250gsm tee shirt is its luxurious feel. The thicker fabric not only feels softer against your skin but also holds its shape better after multiple washes. No more sagging collars or stretched-out seams—this tee is made to last.
2. Durability & Longevity
Cheap tees might save you a few euros upfront, but they’ll wear out quickly. Higher GSM (grams per square meter) means a sturdier fabric that resists pilling, shrinking, and fading. In the long run, you’ll end up buying fewer replacements, making the slightly higher price a smart investment.
3. Eco-Conscious Choice
Fast fashion is a major contributor to environmental waste. By choosing a well-made, durable tee, you’re helping reduce the cycle of buying and discarding low-quality clothing. Fewer replacements equal less waste, making our 250gsm tees a more sustainable choice for your wardrobe.
4. Ethical Production
At thrift.mt, we partner with suppliers that adhere to fair labor practices and quality manufacturing standards. While cheaper tees might cut corners, our higher price point reflects our commitment to ethical production, ensuring workers are paid fairly and factories maintain safe conditions.
5. Versatile Style
A good basic tee is a wardrobe essential. Layer it under a blazer for an elevated look or pair it with jeans for a casual vibe. Its timeless design and premium fabric mean you can style it in countless ways—and look great doing it.
