My favorite T-shirts

These T-shirts fit true to size, are breathable, offer sun protection, look great, don't shrink in the dryer, and are of excellent quality.

Great new T-Shirt!

Kuhl has done it again! You think you have enough T-shirts, then you get one of these. Perfect for hot summer days, they are so light and cool. The fabric is like nothing I've felt before. I have a Buch of Kuhl T-shirts, this is one of my favorites. Don't forget the color choices, always unique from Kuhl.

Great for sleeping

I love wearing this when camping. It’s incredibly comfortable to sleep in and works just as well as a base layer under a flannel.

Nice fabric, wears loose

fabric feels great while wearing it. What a weird thing happens, by the end of the day shirt loosened up. Would get it five star if it kept the same a bit throughout the day

Initially really good

After one wash and two wears, I've noticed t holes have developed in the armpit and defects on both sleeves. I have literally only worn this to and from work a once and to outdoor car show no physical activity or anything heavy that would cause a tears or damage.

Very soft but fragile

It's very soft and comfortable but with in two times of wearing it, it already has a hole. Going to have to throw it out.

Buckshot

Well I love Kuhl products. Have bought many. But this dang $50 T-shirt was a waste of money. Why? Not because it didn’t fit or feel well (it did both) or because the color was off (loved the color), but because as of the SECOND washing it looked like it had been shot by buckshot.
