@traveler I hang/lay flat to dry all my cotton tees.
It has to me. You have to baby this fabric more then your average 100% Tee shirt. I purchased two items of Pima that shrank on me. Yes, I hung them up, etc like all cotton I've had. I decided afterwards not to buy anymore, BUT....there are people who also bought his cotton, and they loved it. Yet, all of the much more expensive 100% cotton tops I've purchased at Nordstrom has NEVER shrunk. Go figure....

I like 100% cotton and the sleeves but not the neckline. I prefer something closer to the neck, either bateau or crew; otherwise, I would have purchased them.

I like the red and blue/red stripe set, but I don’t like the price or curved hem line. I also prefer a cotton blend because in my experience 100% cotton shrinks a bit even when laundering according to directions.

Isaac's Pima is a beautiful, silky feel cotton. They wash very well; I nver place my tops or pants in the dryer however and never experience wear and tear from washing.

I'm right there with you. Since I'm 5 ft tall, I don't have enough upper arm. The sleeves come below my elbow. Looks weird. Bad fit.

Thank you for your replies. Think I’ll pass and look for my usual cotton blend.

@Shanus I actually liked the black/white selection. I did not purchase but I know the quality of his pima cotton tees and own several for the winter. $25 for pima cotton is very reasonable. I know JJill sells pima but it costs around $45 I believe. Enjoy your tees.

@Katcat1. I own many of his Pima cotton tees...mostly winter...these are the first non-short sleeve ones I’ve seen for spring/summer. Can turn sleeve up a little if comes over my elbow.

I caved and purchased 2 sets. The Red and the Rosemary. I have several of IM cardigans and love them. Always looking for a nice V-Neck T and these will hopefully suit my needs.
