I wear cotton t-shirts year round, but for a staple to be a special value it should have a bigger discount.  

 

I don't shop at websites that don't provide garment measurements unless it is a brand I know well because I find sellers like Lands End sell t-shirts that have the same measurement at the bust and at the bottom, and my bottom is bigger than my bust, and I don't want the shirt to fit tight around my bottom. Also the distance between my bust and my bottom is shorter than average (shortwaisted).  So I need those measurements because I don't want to spend my time buying and returning items that never had a chance, but I didn't even know it because the seller wouldn't even give me the garment measurements.

 

Thanks to QVC for providing that information.

This TSV is an easy pass for me. I’m sad to say that Isaac’s line has gone downhill imho. I know the Pima cotton fabric is nice but as others have said there are better choices elsewhere.

 

The hi low hem, three quarter length sleeves, scoop neck just repetitive and boring for me. I also dislike the neon bright color palette he uses. Bright fuscia, kelly green, dark yellows etc tend to look like cheap and garish to me. I’m sure there are others that like them though or they wouldn’t sell.

 

The very best tees I own are from Isaac several years ago. They are a cotton modal blend, so soft, launder beautifully, in muted heathered colors. To me they look and feel classy, like they came from a high end designer boutique. I miss that quality.

Cotton? No, it is not the season for cotton but usually QVC has very little that is made of cotton. Even in season QVC has few products that are made of cotton anymore. Almost everything is polyester or some synthetic material. It used to be that synthetic materials were less expensive but now they cost as much and more than natural materials that are almost nonexistent on QVC or HSN. Even wool is disappearing!. Fake wool, fake suede, fake everything for the price that we used to pay for the real thing!

So it's going to be your fault you know ... that I've ordered more stuff after Christmas than before Christmas. LOL. I've never purchased tees from Lands End ... so I went out and looked at the LE Pima tees and tanks. Well they have a sale (yay) and then free shipping over $99 ... so then I had to buy more to get to the free shipping. LOLOLOL.

 

My only concern is w/ the long sleeve tees ... they said loose fit and UGH, I hate loose fit tees. So I sized down and hope they fit a bit closer to the body.

 

Isaac's pima tees in the past were of excellent quality and they have lasted and lasted. But then he changes styles/fabrics, etc. So I am anxious to see if the LE pima tees are at least as good as the IM pima items.

The Land's End tees are on sale right now. Also looks like fast shipping. I've just ordered some today for the first time, so I don't know quality. But the price was nice on sale.

I love his pima cotton tshirts and have several but i have to agree with other posters - I think his clothing line has become boring.  One poster stated she thinks he is phoning in his designs and that says it all.

It is cold where I live and I wear a tee shirt everyday..either alone or layered.  It is a basic, they are worn a lot.

 

I have a closet full of sweaters that I don't often wear and they never seem to need replaced. I stopped buying them.
