Speaking of summer, who makes a good lightweight, absolutely non-insulating tee that I can wear in DC summers where the humidity makes any article of clothing impractical? Even my lightish cotton tees get all gross.

Have you tried the uniqlo airism tees?

 

[Bam!ChairDance]

ooh, those look interesting. just saw them on uniqlo's site. what has been your experience with them?

What are they made of? I can't find a simple statement of fabric composition, though "super-fine fiber developed by..." says to me it's 100% synthetic and not a cotton blend.

Spoiler: Warning: AIRism

I've picked up a few cotton tees that are lightweight to the point of sheerness randomly around Toronto, but I'd like a reliable source of plain tops in a comparable material.

The problem w airism tees is that they look very much like undershirts

If you're gonna wear them on their own def size up

Anyone know how the sizing is for Les Hommes or have a sizing chart ?

late reply, but pretty true overall like others have said, though I've found the sleeves to be pretty damn small compared to even schneider, which makes the shirts a dead-end for me. Take this for example:

Really nice shirt, but I couldn't even lift my arms up without feeling like I was gonna rip the sleeves out. Just something to keep in mind if buying on final sales etc.

84% polyester 16% spandex IIRC

I haven't tried them myself, I just knew they fit your criteria, sorry du.

Be prepared for nipple pokies if you wear them as a regular tee.

 

[Bam!ChairDance]

as long as it's a respectable individual poking my nipples, i welcome nipple pokies on most days of the week

My wife surprised me with a little Vass on my birthday...

Nice. Happy birthday moo.

I too received a surprise today when my airline told me they had misplaced my luggage. Fantastic.

PH is a style icon, but the quality of his stuff is not great. It's okay, but not great. Sizing is weird. I would order a half size down from Margiela's non-dress shoe sizing.

Moo´s name is Jake?? And here I was thinking Miran got it right

 

[indesertum]

did she make it?
