I'm just ordering some clothes for work, nothing meant to be fancy.
I'm not sure what the difference is (technically I do, by feel/touch, how they vent heat and how the hold up, I don't) between 100% cotton and 50/50 and between brands so I ordered 1-2 of each.

It will be hot in the summer so I am thinking the 100% cotton was a good idea

----------------------

For t-shirts I really like just plain ol blank colored T-shirts but I need one that will hold up (but for the price I can't ask for it to hold up TOO long). This one says "famous" Beefy-T by Hanes. Anyone have these?

None of those polo shirts are interesting to me. The Hanes Beefy-Ts have a horrible cut, but they're relatively durable. I get pretty hot wearing them, though.

What sort of work do you do?

I can't say I'd be wearing them in any important social situation.

Just a warehouse/retail store..

In that case, you'd be fine with the Hanes Beefy-Ts. I still think they are way too hot, though.
