Women's Raglan Sleeve Stretch Cotton Crewneck Tee

I had a Hanes shirt I had purchased about 10 years ago and absolutely loved (still going strong!), but it’s finally starting to fade from black to that obviously faded color. It suddenly dawned on me that I should see if that style was still made - we’re talking Hanes here so not a company influenced heavily by the trends - or at least something similar. I found this which looked like it was made of the same comfy, durable, fabric and similar fit with roughly the same neckline and 3/4 length sleeves - all boxes checked plus a killer price! Based on the TruFit model info, I should have ordered the Large (I’m roughly a 12) but I always order up a size because of upper arm issues and I’m not fond of things clinging to my body - I love the comfort of a bit of spandex, but not how it looks when outlining my muffin top! I saw a few reviews saying it ran a bit small and looked at the photos and decided to order up 2 sizes, knowing this fabric and cut (assuming they were as I expected) would be very forgiving on sizing. My XXL came and it was perfect. Same fabric, same sort of fit as my old shirt. If I had the body of my youth and was fine with a more form-fitting top, the L would be a great fit. With my arm issues, the XL would absolutely have fit me and I’d have been happy with it. But the XXL was very comfy and just floats over my body in the middle without being overly loose in the shoulders or hips, the two places it actually contacts the body. It just hangs more in a straight line without accenting the dreaded bulge. With my extra 10+ pandemic pounds, this was exactly what was needed! The fabric is soft and substantial - not at all thin or see-through - and has enough stretch to be comfortable and allow a good fit in several sizes, depending on how tight or loose a top you prefer, flaws you wish to disguise, etc. It’s well-constructed and basic enough to be worn on its own (no jacket) with scarves or jewelry to dress it up a bit, plainer for more casual, and can be layered under sweaters, etc without lots of lumps or discomfort. Length is about mid to lower hip depending on your height and how you chose to size the top. Had I bought the size intended by TruFit, it would definitely have been mid-hip. Two sizes up and it was lower but still not bum-covering enough for leggings IMO. I was happy enough with it that I ordered 3 more.

My new favorite top! I like the fit, the feel, the flattery of this top. I highly recommend it for a casual look.

Be aware that the Hanes size 2X is not the same as Hanes' brand Just My Size 2X. It is much smaller. The size chart for this Hanes tee, based only on chest size, said that a 2X would fit me. However, it did not fit; it was too small, especially small in the hip area. If you can get the right fit, this is a good tee. I like the raglan sleeves, that provide a good fit at shoulders, regardless of your shoulder width. No sloppy dropped shoulders. I also like the three-quarter length sleeves. Comfortable cotton fabric. For cold winter weather, this would be great for layering under a sweater or sweatshirt. Also would be good, by itself, for autumn and spring.

Nice color and fit ok. Didn’t was well, shrunk in length.

My favorite shirt; it is so comfortable, perfect neckline, not to high on my neck, and love the length. I could probably wear a Large, but prefer XL for roominess and comfort. I have it in gray and navy and will probably get the teal one.

Just got this in today and I believe this is a good quality Tee but dang, it's too small even after sizing it up with the size chart.

Very comfortable, not too thick

Closer to teal than turquoise, fit is tight but not too tight, great quality, very wearable
