Calvin Klein Mens Short  Cotton Multipack V Neck T-Shirts

Calvin Klein t shirts are so frustrating, because they are so close to being perfect that the fact that they arent almost makes me hate them. And, yet, I cant because theyre 90% exactly what Im looking for in an undershirt. The Large size has the perfect sleeve length and, out of the box (or the weird bag shirt packs come in), is the exact size I like a shirt to be. Its a shame you have to wash them... Once they shrink, theyre just a little smaller than Id like. Ill get a year or so of wear out of this three pack, which still makes it a good value, but I just wish they fit perfectly, because... I also have a 3 pack of the white and the sleeves are too long and, even after washing, theyre just too big. I guess it could be my bodys fault, but I feel like 510 180 pounds is a pretty average body size. The dumbest thing is, Im probably just going to keep buying these shirts, because they really are exactly what I want at a good price, outside of the sizing issue.

everything I expected

Would not purchase again. Seam is sewn on both sides. Makes T-Shirt a bit uncomfortable & a bit annoying! Overpriced for what I got. Paying for a name.

Under shirt

This review is long overdue. It’s coming from someone who has worn these as undershirts or lounging around shirts nearly every day for at least the last 15 years. These used to be awesome shirts, primarily because they were made in Egypt and of Egyptian cotton. They felt great from the get go and became even more comfortable over time with repeated washings. The quality and longevity was excellent. I often lament not stocking up on those old CK shirts when they were available. It was pretty much the best undershirt money could buy, and fairly reasonably priced, retailing at about $36-$40 for a 3-pack. Flash forward from then to a few years ago, much has changed, all of it for the worse. First and foremost, the shirts are no longer made of Egyptian cotton but are instead made in Bangladesh or Haiti out of far inferior cotton. Secondly, the silk-screened text below the collar chips off after a few washes. Thirdly, the collar itself is narrow and flimsy, and it gets mangled up after the first few washes. Due to that, these are now only useable as undershirts, unless you don’t mind walking around with mangled collars. The sewing of the collar to the garment has also been drastically cheapened. The Egyptian shirt collars were wide, attractive, of excellent quality, double-stitched to the shirt and never got mangled, even after many years of wear and washings. The cost has remained roughly the same as the Egyptian shirts. For whatever it’s worth, the consensus seems to be that the Bangladesh shirts are of better quality than the Haitian ones. I’ve bought these from Amazon a few times over the last year or so and have always gotten the Bangladesh ones. Why do I still buy these shirts at all? Because, unfortunately, they’re still more comfortable than Hanes, Jockey and seemingly most other of the usual suspects. Better undershirts are surely available if one is willing to spend at least $30/shirt and possibly a lot more, which I am not. Why did CK ruin this iconic garment that let them figuratively print money? I can say almost for sure it’s because some complete (insert your favorite insult) senior executive realized that they could compromise the garment quality drastically while still remaining better than the competition. Unfortunately, I cannot deny that that is a correct realization. Consequently, they were able to keep the price the same while drastically cutting their manufacturing cost. Most consumers will be ignorant to all of the above, and the few who aren’t, will quickly realize that this shirt is still a competitive and reasonable option, despite the drastic downgrade for the same price. CK, I’m calling you out. If I’ve misstated anything above and you are not, in fact, a shamefully greedy bunch of frauds who screwed over your loyal patrons and ruined the best mass-market undershirt ever created for a cause no more honorable than further enriching your already embarrasingly flush pockets, I enthusiastically invite you to respond to this review and set the record straight.

2 of the shirts came with holes poked in them. Had to return.

Shirt wears well and arrived quickly.

The undershirt comes long but not too long, long enough to stay tucked in all day long. Very soft and cut well (shaped well). Also, it doent have a tag in the back that would have bothered the back of my neck.
