Boys with Bibles Symbol Short Sleeve Tee

This is the shirt he reaches for on the way out the door, wears to church, and keeps coming back to all week, with the small Boys with Bibles symbol on the chest and nothing else to it. The cotton is heavy weight at 6.5 oz, with real substance to it, the kind of tee that feels like something rather than the thin, see-through shirts that go limp and shapeless after a season. It comes in adult, youth and toddler fits, so the whole crew can wear the same shirt, and every one of them is a wardrobe staple built to hold up.

The fabric

100% combed cotton in a 22-singles, 6.5 oz heavy weight. Combing the cotton removes the short, rough fibers, which gives this tee a smooth, dense hand and helps it hold up through constant wear and washing, and keeps it from feeling scratchy on little arms. Heather colors carry a touch of viscose at 15% for that soft marled look. It feels good on day one and still feels good a year in.

The fabric is preshrunk, so what he tries on is close to what he keeps after wash number ten.

How it fits

A regular fit through the body in every fit, easy to wear on its own or as a layer, and roomy enough for a kid to move, climb, and play in. Neck ribbing keeps the collar from stretching out after being pulled on and off, and shoulder to shoulder tape holds the shirt's shape across the back through repeated wear.

Construction and finishing

Side seamed for a cleaner drape that doesn't twist in the wash, with double needle hems at the sleeves and bottom for durability where clothes usually give out first. The heavier fabric and the finishing details are what separate this from a throwaway tee, so it earns a permanent spot in the drawer, or gets handed down to a younger brother.

Choosing a fit

Adult runs true to adult men's sizing, Small through 5X-Large. Youth covers sizes 8 through 16, and Toddler covers 2T, 4T and 6T. Pick the fit first, then the size. Check the size chart against his measurements before ordering, especially for a younger wearer, since kids grow through a size fast.

Buying this as a gift

This is a safe gift for a teenager or a young man who is particular about how his clothes fit and feel, and just as easy for a boy who has opinions about what he wears, or for the parents dressing a toddler. A heavier, well-made tee is something most people never buy enough of for themselves, so it's an easy one to get right. Check the size chart before you order to land the right fit.
