Couple of points:
- All t-shirts are comfortable and well-fitting--as long as you buy your size.
- You already have a dozen or so comfortable and well-fitting t-shirts, and unless you're easily influenced, none of them cost you $32.50 a piece.

I get that it's american made and i would pay extra to support american economics, but still, 32.50 for one cotton t-shirt? Granted it costs maybe 50 cents to a dollar to make a t shirt, and since t shirts are made in bulk, I still feel like its upcharged even accounting for the labor. Maybe if it wasn't located in southern california it might've been sold cheaper.

You're using raw material costs while ignoring about a thousand other steps that go into production. The raw cost of an iphone is no where near it's retail cost and yet many don't have a problem with that. Also, there are many types and grades of cotton, not all are going to be used in garment production and only the higher level stuff makes it into brands like this.

I don't really see where all the hate is coming from...
This is a 100% American made product, not just materials or just labor; both. That is hard to find these days, especially in the fashion industry.
Are there products of equivalent quality that are bit cheaper? Probably... But there is certainly some piece of mind knowing that your are supporting American jobs and avoiding companies that capitalize on cheap textile factories in Indonesia.
So I can't support the idea that you have to be some kind of pompous shirt elitist in order to buy this product.
Y'all need to chill the frick out.

Butter packaging machinery for use in dairies and creameries around North America. Very mechanical old beasts that needed updating to fit FDA and USDA rules for sanitation.
I don't doubt those willing to spend will appreciate the end product, it's just outside my price range for something that may end up an undershirt.

Looking at your models, there is no way this shirt will fit me at all. There are lots of different body types! I know that there may be equipment limitations that impact what sizes or shapes you can offer, but it would be great if I could find American-made clothes that were made for American bodies instead of slim models.

I can find american made shirts for $20 each or cheaper. Overpriced imo. Just bought 3 usa made t shirts sewn in san francisco for $38 for all 3.

So stoked to offer this comfortable & well-fitting tee from Velva Sheen. A great tee, both worn on its own and as a layering piece is the ideal. We have worked diligently with Velva Sheen to take their core offering and elevate it in just the right places - 1) slightly longer sleeves & 2) a proprietary dynamic knit that is both a touch more substantial and also a bit more accommodating & breathable. Hope you enjoy. Looking forward to hearing from the community.

There's an old saying used by Men and Women who spend a lot of time in the outdoors..."Cotton Kills!"
I'm a Backpacker, a Bushcrafter, a Fisherman, and an Outdoorsman, and I never wear any clothing that is 100% cotton because it does not wick very well, and quickly becomes saturated with perspiration, while drying slowly.
During the colder seasons that same perspiration can cause one to become chilled at a minimum, or to freeze at a maximum.
Even in warmer humid weather, or warm humid climates, I find that cotton clothing sticks to my skin, and quickly becomes saturated with perspiration during activities requiring physical exertion.
I do own some 60/40 Cotton/Polyester blend shirts that wick much better, and of course good old dependable 100% Merino Wool that has Anti-Microbial, and perspiration wicking properties.
I also own some Wool/Nylon/Polyester/Tencel/ Polypropylene shirts blended with various percentages of the different fibers, with Wool and Nylon blends being the most common.
I do own an Icebreaker Cool Lite Shirt that has a blend of Merino Wool, Nylon, and Tencel that works well.
I also own some 100% Polyester shirts that wick very well, and some have Insect Shield treatments, and some have different anti-microbial treatments, so they stay fresh smelling.
I have found that no matter what fiber your shirt is made from, it is still possible to saturate the shirt with perspiration to varying degrees, again depending upon the fibers, your level of physical exertion, and how much humidity, and air movement surrounds you.
I think that a dry climate, with low humidity is a good place for a 100% Cotton shirt.
Of course, if you spend your day in an air conditioned space, then Cotton works good there too.

MsilverhammerI also feel the same way about Cotton socks.
I think that I bought one of those large packages of white cotton athletic socks a few years ago at Kmart, but I rarely wear any of them.
In fact, I think that many are still in the package.
I own and use many different high quality hiking socks from manufacturers like Bridgedale, Darn Tough, Farm to Feet, Smartwool, Stego, Thorlo, Wigwam, Woolrich, and Wrightsock.
Most of my socks are blends of Merino Wool, Nylon, and Lycra..
Some have additional fibers like Acrylic, Olefin, Polyamide, Polyester, Polypropylene, and Tencel woven into the socks.
All of these various fiber combinations provide differing degrees of Blister Prevention, Cushioning, Durability, Insulation, Moisture Wicking, and Anti-Microbial characteristics that Cotton just does not provide.

I was pretty skeptical of the price of a pair of raw denim jeans. Eventually, I ended up getting a pair.
But there's no way in hell someone's going to convince me that these shirts are worth this asking price. Pretty outrageous. I'm sure they feel nice and all but I can't help but to see this as something that's unreasonably higher in price than other plain tees from practically any other venue while commanding practically zero noticeable differentiation other than "it feels nice."

Says the guy responding to a year old post?
It works like this Grarth: when someone makes a comment to a thread one has previously been a part of, MD sends a notification stating so-and-so has "joined the conversation"--the idea is to let one know the conversation is continuing.
Unfortunately, those notifications don't specify whether or not the individual who joined the conversation had anything relevant to contribute, or was just some dipshit burping up some meaningless and irrelevant drivel to a year old conversation--as in your case.
So while you may not be replying to me, I'm certainly replying to you. That way you can feel involved in a conversation you were never part of to begin with.
It's my way of promoting inclusiveness ;- )

I think at this price point there is a disparity between quality and value for a plain tee shirt. Implying that this is a Drop price makes me feel like the money is largely paying for branding but there's not even labels to show that your paying for that.

Why all the hate? These are no doubt expensive for Tees, but in this case I believe you do get what you pay for.
I have not personally purchased Velva Sheen, but it is one of the most recommended Tees at its price point. The only negative is if it fits weirdly for your body type. Everyone else recommends the quality, comfort, etc.
If it is flattering and durable, the value you get out of it may not be worse than buying the cheapest Tees you can find.
