I just realized, I spent about 45 seconds going through the rack. And I do this almost every day.
I'm retired, so I wear t shirts 7 days a week.

(8,234 posts)Then it's an objective sight and smell comparative test. If and when you get to where you simply must put on a clean shirt, you can deal with it then.

(251 posts)I'm going to wear my "Kamala" T Shirt as soon as it comes out of the dryer.

(60,024 posts)but then, almost all of my T-shirts are plain, with no advertising or promotions on them.
All I have to do is select the color, or which I have too many brown, tan, blue, or gray ones.
If the color doesn't clash too much with my pants I'm good to go. I don't really like paying rich people for the privilege of displaying their advertising.

(23,765 posts)I live in NE FL so wear tank tops, shorts and sandals from April-Nov. After that, the weather is very changeable so I wear either capris or jeans and shirts, jackets according to the temp.

(28,996 posts)I reinforce everything with fray check.
I tie the neck and armhole with wide bias tape, so it doesn't fit sloppy.
Then, I wear a cami underneath or even another tank top. (I buy them big so, they're more like smocks)
Then, they don't end up getting stinky with sweat.
I have two with Kamala's face silkscreened, so I don't want to wash them very often
Of course, I don't wear anything with sleeves either until November. Even then, I often wear tanks tops and shorts most of the winter and just bring a sweater along. (Of course, unless it actually gets cold)

(23,765 posts)It's my favorite shirt!
I'm a precinct chair and I block walk. I was afraid voters probably wouldn't "get" the comma reference. So, I've just got her face..LOL
One is KAMALA 2024 with a picture of her as Rosie the Riveter, the other is Harris for President with a beautiful picture of her with a rainbow background. Both are iron on.

(3,212 posts)Do I have a clean, soft T that reaches my knees so I don't need shorts?
Is anyone stopping by? Is It a holiday I need to honor?
Grateful Dead? Rolling Stones? Quicksilver Messenger? Emerald Triangle?
Plain, which color?
I need a nap.

(68,359 posts)I haven't worn a tee shirt in 30 years.
I don't even wear polo shirts for golf.
I'm a Hawaiian, cabana, or dress shirt guy.

(8,221 posts)For example, today is Saturday and I'm wearing my red, white and blue t-shirt that has "Barbecue Brisket 2024" printed on it, I have been wearing it on Saturdays ever since I got it. Tomorrow is Sunday and my usual Sunday t-shirt is light blue with a yellow VW Bug and a surfboard printed on it. I am partial to plain pocket t-shirts and wear those a lot during the week.

Alpeduez21
(1,835 posts)I open the drawer, grab the shirt on top and put it on. Do laundry every two or three days which means I basically wear the same two or three shirts. Its a dual process cause I have work T-shirts and at home tshirts.
