Frequently Asked Questions:
How should I expect a RibbedTee Undershirt to fit me?
RibbedTee men's undershirts offer a close, comfortable fit. Our entire line is designed with stretch fabrics, so they will comfortably fit a wide variety of body shapes and sizes. You will find them to fit close, but not too tight.
Will RibbedTee Undershirts shrink after washing?
Our Classic Fit & Retro Fit undershirts were designed to wash down (shrink) to their intended size, so they may fit a little loose right out of their package. Just wash and dry them on warm as you would anything else and you'll find that our undershirts will shrink from 5% - 8% and then relax out slightly when you wear them. After washing and drying again, our undershirts will shrink back down for that perfect fit.
Our MicroModal undershirts and tank tops are pre-washed so they won't shrink after washing.
Are RibbedTee Undershirts made for tall people? Are they longer than other undershirts?
You will find our undershirts are cut longer than many other standard undershirts, however, they still may not be long enough for someone who is very tall (over 6'4"). Of course, this primarily depends on the length of the individual wearer's torso, and not necessarily height. We do have a return policy, so if you find that our undershirts are not long enough, you may return them for a refund within 30 days of purchase.
Our post-laundered overall length measurements are provided on the Sizing Chart tab of each product page in our online store. Our standard post-laundered length for size Small is 28", Medium 29", Large 30", and XL and 2XL is 31".
How do you measure the length of RibbedTee Undershirts?
The length of our shirts is measured, laying flat, from HPS (high point seam) to the bottom of the undershirt. The HPS is located where the collar comes in contact with the shoulder seam.
What is your longest undershirt?
While both our Classic Fit and MicroModal undershirt share the exact same pattern design (measurements), our MicroModal undershirts will be slightly longer post washing/drying as they are made with a finer ribbed knit design and have a tendency to shrink slightly less.
How should I care for my RibbedTee Undershirts?
We recommend washing the undershirts in warm water, using non-chlorine bleach only when needed. Tumble dry on a medium heat. You'll find our standard care instructions on the garment label. If you prefer your undershirts to fit tighter, wash and tumble dry on high heat.
Do you recommend any pre-treatment before washing?
Under normal circumstances you should not need to pre-treat your undershirts before washing them. However, to minimize the amount of staining that may be caused by the combination of underarm perspiration, deodorants, and antiperspirants, you may pre-treat your undershirt by soaking it in cold water prior to washing. This technique may be used on other undershirts as well to minimize the appearance of the yellow stains that may appear.

Are RibbedTee Undershirts tagless?
Yes, all our current products are tagless.
Do your tagless labels contain latex?
No, our tagless labeles do NOT contain any latex. The ink used in our transfer labels is known as "non-phthalate" ink. This type of ink is mandated by Congress for children's wear, however we use it for our labels garment labels because we know that it will go next to the skin.
