The basic white t-shirt is fundamental to anyone’s wardrobe. I can’t think of an item of clothing (aside from underwear) that I wear more often than my favourite t-shirt. Whether it’s worn on its own, under a hoodie or shirt or layered up, there’s no denying that when you find one that fits you well it hits different.
Of course, you can head to well-known brands like Tommy Hilfiger or Hugo Boss are fantastic places to pick up wardrobe staples like sneakers, jeans and polo shirts but when it comes to my plain white t-shirts to be logo-free and so, for this reason, I tend to seek out some more minimal brands.
The Arket Heavyweight T-shirt
The Arket 100% cotton heavyweight t-shirt is my favourite, and probably my go-to for daily wear. The fit is slightly more relaxed and the fabric has a bit of a vintage feel to it. The crew neck sits perfectly, neither too high to too low.

Reiss Crew Neck T-Shirt
The Reiss classic crew neck feels incredibly soft. I opt for this option if I’m going for a slightly smarter look. It looks perfectly refined under a suit jacket but equally works great with a soft cotton hoody. The cotton used in this t-shirt is sourced in collaboration with Better Cotton.
£25
Spoke Organic T-Shirt
If you’re looking for something a little more fitted, then look no further than Spoke. Their organic t-shirt is crafted from light 150g cotton and features a slighted tapered and ribbed neckline. There are bound splits on the sides also for ease of movement.
