$60 and up. Luxury basics, heritage brands, or made-in-small-batch labels. What you're paying for: premium long-staple cotton, precise construction, maybe organic or recycled materials, and a brand story.

Do you need it? No. But if you're a true minimalist with a capsule wardrobe, a $70 tee that lasts five years might be cheaper per wear than a $20 tee that dies in six months. That math works.

For oversized fits, this tier offers the best drapes—fabric that hangs beautifully, not just big and boxy. If you're tall or have a longer torso, you'll appreciate the extra length.
