    can someone suggest where to go for some good quality (i guess 100% cotton is the best) oul fashioned regular t-shirts? every tshirt ive seen in shops lately is either made for people who want to show off their muslces with either only the shoulders being covered or it being so tight fitting it looks glued to you when u wear it. If it's not that, it's too light has no weight or quality to it at all, the when you do find something half way decent, it has some horrible colour or frilly nonsense or some ironic slogan or ****, then of course there's the "78 base camp" or whatever cool sounding digit sequence they decide to put on it.

    Basic price and basic style, suggestions roll in please :pac:

    I buy plain tshirts to wear underneath certain shirts at times, usually plain black or white.

    Can't fault penny's or Dunnes op. Cheap and cheerful.

    Penneys have great deals or try dunnes

    cheers guys yeah penny's and dunnes have the right style alright but the quality seems to be lacking a bit and they seem to be too light and not goot material? Happy to pay 10-15 quid a pop if it's decent, but not 30-40 for a label.

    Buy a size up if you buy them in Dunnes,they'll shrink in the wash.

    Dunnes or Pennys are where I get my basic stuff, everywhere else seem to have nonsense written on them / bright fluorescent colours / V-necks going down to your nipples or are an insane price for a measly t-shirt.

    sorry, forgot to mention im in dub
    I'm in Galway if that helps?
