Description

The heavyweight long sleeve done properly. The TAS Heavyweight Oversized Long Sleeve T-Shirt is built from 500GSM fabric in 85% organic cotton and 15% recycled polyester nearly twice the weight of a standard long sleeve tee with a super oversized silhouette and dropped shoulders that gives it a structured, intentional drape rather than a shapeless one.

The embroidered Alternative script logo sits quietly on the left chest. No other graphics, no prints. The weight and the cut do all the work.

Fit: Super oversized fit with dropped shoulders. These come up large by design — most customers size down one for the best fit. Check the size chart before ordering. Unisex, like everything we make.

Stu's Tip: I'd go down a size on this one. The oversized fit is intentional but these are genuinely big sizing down gives you the oversized look without swimming in it.
