These are actually the very Asos scoops that Regis mentioned. Considering they cost 12.50, I'm pretty happy with them.

I checked them and they look good but short (hard to tell definitively from internet pics and I have been fooled before). Is that right?

Why won't tshirt makers create a "long" fit with another 2" of length? WHY?

Im almost 6'5 and the L fit lengthwise just fine. Some longer, some shorter. I do remember the blue/navy scoop was shorter than the gray/white/black ones for some reason, but at the price its a throw away piece anyways. I stand corrected looks like they have gone down to $10.55

Leon, have you tried the ACNE Limit? I would recommend the JL Dyson Breeze which was my favorite (raw edges, light soft cotton, short sleeves etc) but for some reason they stopped making them
I do wish Sunspel made their Q82's Low V's in other colors, that would be perfect

I have a couple of acne limits and Josh tee, but I refuse to pay 90 for them T by wang are 70 but I don't like the fit its too wide and short,.

THESE ARE AMAZING BUT ALWAYS SOLD OUT (Size down 1)

Also AA Loose summer crew are pretty perfect just wish they were a little bit sluttier.

How do the Sunspels compare fit-wise to the ACNE limits? Are they long like Acne Ts? (I'm 6'4"). Better to TTS for slim fit?

I only have experience with the Q82 from Sunspel, its supposed to be underwear apparently, hence the low v-neck but the fit is a bit wide in the abdomen. The length is exactly like the Limit, I think about half an inch longer. I wear an M with the Sunspel btw since M has a 42 chest Length of 28 inches. Made in England and hold up well to washes too

These actually look pretty cool, like the concept

Might just grab a few ASOS scoopnecks, like the deep black one

Maybe we need an "official slutty t-shirts" thread. :laugh:

My thoughts on some slutty tees (and I use the term "slutty" in the sex-positive sense):
- AA loose summer crew: More so mildly suggestive of sexual promiscuity than actually slutty. Sleeves are a little wide and short, but the body is plenty long and has a nice taper. TTS or up one for an oversized fit.
- AA sexuali-tee: Impossible to size down enough (the smallest size fits like an XL), but with an extra-sluttly neckline and plenty of length. Viscose feels nice.
- AA viscose tee: Not exactly uptight, but much less slutty than the sexuali-tee. I remember liking them when I tried them on in the store. I just ordered a couple on the cheap, and I'll post pictures when they get here. TTS (up one might be fine as well).
- Alt A wannabe rocker slub tee: Nice lightweight cotton and raw hems, but not enough length in the body and ridiculously short, wide sleeves. Body is cut like a tube. TTS.
- Zara: Pretty much the exact same t-shirt as the Alt A wannabe rocker tee, although I think it has a pocket.
- Alt A u-neck: Heavier cotton (nice texture), better body and sleeve lengths. Still cut like a tube. TTS. I got two on sale for like $8 at UO. No idea whether they still even make these.
- BLK DNM t-shirt 5: Pretty damn slutty. Tells the world you put out on the first date and probably go home with randoms. Rayon, with lots of sleeve and body length. Down 1. I've heard you can't machine-dry it. Usually pretty expensive, but I've found one for $20 and another for $19.
- Silent "taku" tee (I think it's the taku tee): The neck is more so relaxed than scooped. Really soft cotton. Long body and sleeves with a nice taper. Probably my favorite t-shirt cut ever.
- Odyn Vovk curved seam tee: Not that deep a neckline, tons of body and sleeve length. Fabric is ungodly soft (pima cotton blended with micromodal and maybe something else). Pretty expensive, unfortunately. Probably up there with Silent for Best T-shirt Ever. Down one or TTS.
- ASOS: I tried a few different models out, and they were all terrible. I forget the details (I think it was mostly related to the way they fit), but I sent everything I ordered back. This was a while ago, though, so there may have been changes since then.
