If you change "tee shirt" to "turtleneck" ... I can relate.

I have them hanging in the closet according to color. Majority are black or white, but I have a wide variety of other colors, prints, and 3 sleeve lengths (sleeveless, short sleeve and long sleeve.)  

In each color - there are different fabrics for different occasions.  Some dressy silks, rayons, etc. - but majority are cottons.

I've been tempted to count them - but I really don't want to know the number.  It might keep me from buying more.

@Shanus I don't consider it hoarding until you can't find a drawer or cabinet in which to store them!  Until then, they're just a collection.

@millieshops    I'm there.  I'm putting my short sleeve shirts in bins in the garage.

@Shanus  You will have lots of company in the TSA.  I have tees in every sleeve length from cami/tank to long sleeve.  I am primarily a crewneck girl, but do have v-necks, scoops and boats in the collection.  I never think of having too many, but I suppose some people may say so.  There are the ones which I use for my regular wardrobe and are in tip top shape.  These I would not be embarassed to wear as an uncovered top to be seen as a focal point of the outfit. Then there are the ones which get bumped down to being  layering pieces and they are always worn under sweaters, jackets, and sheerer fabrics which needs something underneath for modesty.  I have the tees which are used for exercise and that is a different set from the ones I use for gardening.  I have a few which are only worn around the house.  It's not that they are in awful condition, but rather they were never selected to be great fitting or stylish.  Most of these are loose fitting with fun prints which are confortable and functional.  They also work well as gardening tees since they have a longer length.  

A couple times a year I go through all of my t-shirt stashes and edit the collection.

@Trix  Good morning. I made a little head way yesterday. Trying on the tees that are iffy is tedious. I think the issue is since I wash at least twice a week, the piles of "house", gym and studio tees need to be pared down. Those are in stacks of wire drawers. My built in shelves will then have only the "good" ones left...no stretched out necks, too long, wrong sizes, too big, etc. Only the wearable ones (fit for others to see) will be shelved.

Wait a minute!  Are you saying someone could have too many tee shirts?!?!?   Nooooo. 

Like @ScrapHappy said, my husband has one closet full of souvenir tee shirts.... and I have another.  (should I admit that?)   The tees in my closet are all colors.  I also have one drawer of nothing but white tee shirts.  There is no such thing as tee shirt overload.

So there.

I get it but my stacks and stacks are sleeveless. I have very few T-shirts because I'm just not into short sleeves. It's long or no sleeve for me

Not really a fan of scoop necks so most of mine are mocks, turtlenecks, boat necks,crewnecks and Vs. And when I find one that I like I buy it in every color.

I can’t even begin to guess how many of these tops I have.

I am most comfortable wearing these tops, alone or layered,

for casual wear.  Of course, I am now retired and should have weeded out so much years ago.  You name it, I have it in large quantities.  Shoes, handbags, and jewelry.  Crazy.  What was I thinking?  Answer is I wasn’t thinking.  Oh, being a New Englander, I just love, love sweaters!

I have been weeding out my t-shirts over the last week.  I donated several sacks yesterday.  Some are too tight (sadly), some are too short, and some are too out of shape.  I've already decided that next spring I am going to invest in nice, new t-shirts from LL Bean or Lands End.  No more thin, cheap ones for me.

Dratts, I keep wearing and washing and wearing the same several tee shirts.  

What is wrong with me, anyway?

Well, I guess because I'm not roaming around in stores, malls, etc., I'm not wearing my newer, nicer ones.

I think I'll trim my older trimmed down tees into around the house tanks, worn under tops and shirts and/or worn as sleeping tanks.

Then I can concentrate on wearing all of my other tees.

This is me, too. I still look for tees that "do something." A little twist there, a tuck here. But I tend to stay with the same color palette.

Short sleeve tees for warm weather; long sleeve tees for cool.

Just looks clean & neat, and not fussy.
