Ask Tug: looking for a long sleeve crew neck undershirt or long sleeve v-neck undershirt?

This is pretty funny (at least I think so). A reader wrote in inquiring about where he could find a long sleeve v-neck undershirt and I emailed him back with some recommendations. The funny thing is that I just realized I pointed him to a bunch of long sleeve crewneck undershirts instead of long sleeve v-neck undershirts! Damn.

Hell, since I went to the trouble, here’s a list of options for long sleeve crewneck undershirts:

There are 3 online stores that carry a large selection of men’s undershirts. You’ll find that they all sell roughly the same brands and styles of undershirts. The sites are:

Emporio Armani: Modal Long Sleeve Crew Neck Tee – $36.00

Micro Modal Long Sleeve Crew by Calvin Klein – $36.00

2xist Long Sleeve Crew – Cotton – $25.00 (Freshpair.com)
2xist Long Sleeve Crew – Cotton – $25.00 (hisroom.com)

C-in2 Long Sleeve Crew Neck T-Shirt – Pima Cotton

If you want real high end, you can try out this one (although it’s silk)
Zimmerli Pure Silk Long Sleeve T-Shirt – $155.99

There are also “waffle” style long-sleeve undershirts available on those same sites if you’re in to that kind of undershirt.

Options for long sleeve v-neck undershirts:

Actually, there is only one long sleeve v-neck shirt that I know of (that could possibly double as an undershirt), but it’s pink. It’s the long sleeve v-neck from C-IN2 (available on freshpair.com).

The only other ones I know about aren’t really v-necks, they are the Henley undershirts with buttons.

I have one other suggestion – American Apparel offers a lot of “unisex” lightweight shirts. I recall seeing some long sleeve Rib and long sleeve jersey v-neck shirts (women modeling). May seem kinda silly, but hell, they [women] wear our shirts.
