If you’re reading this, you’re probably on the hunt for a new T-shirt. One that’s warm-weather appropriate and requires minimal effort. Well, you’re in luck. This list includes every type of tee you could possibly need, from streetwear icons like No Problemo to gorpcore favourites from The North Face. So which one will you choose for the summer? Read on for 20 of the best T-shirts out there right now.

SIMPLE PLAIN TEES

Plain T-shirts are often slept on, but they don’t have to be. There’s no duo as quietly powerful as the simple white tee and jeans – case in point: James Dean in Rebel Without a Cause or Marlon Brando in... literally everything before The Godfather. If you can’t resist adding some detail, go for a henley with tonal buttons or a ringer tee with contrast trims. Textured fabric can add subtle depth to your plain tee too – think waffle-knit or ribbed fabrics.

CLASSIC STRIPED TEES

There’s a striped T-shirt for everyone – they quite literally come in all stripes. The easiest way to wear yours is to stick to two colours, like ASOS DESIGN's navy and white number. Experimenting can pay dividends too – we like Dickies’ and Levi’s multi-striped tees, which look good with either brand’s jeans. No Problemo's logo-print, bright-red version is a cool update on the classic pattern too.

GORPCORE T-SHIRTS

Whether the great outdoors is calling to you this summer, or you’re just a gorpcore aficionado, you’ll like these. A tee from a performance brand is a great way to tap into the outdoor look without going full Bear Grylls flanked with mountaineering gear. The North Face and Berghaus' graphic tees showcase their technical roots, while adidas Performance and Columbia's logo tees are a subtler, IYKYK take.

OVERSIZED TEES

Oversized is the fit of the summer, but it’s so much more than sizing up and hoping for the best. Your tee should be loose, but still structured – so look for sleeves that sit above the elbow and shoulder seams that extend a few inches. This keeps your whole outfit in proportion. Oversized tees also drape really well – so opt for heavyweight fabric if you want to emphasise that effect. 4505’s version is built for the gym, but it also looks great at a pub garden.

GRAPHIC TEES

2026 is the summer of saying it with your chest, so long as it's on a graphic tee. They're the ideal vehicle for expressing yourself, whether it’s music, travel… even your favourite beverage. And as always there's a scale – prints can be simple and subtle, all the way up to loud and proud. PRNT's full-scale front-and-back situation is a prime example of the latter.
