Graphic tees range from budget to premium, and fit doesn't always correlate with price. But there are real cost considerations:

• Oversized tees often use more fabric, so they can be pricier—but they also offer more coverage and often last longer if the fabric is substantial.
• Regular fit tees are more common and easier to find on sale, but they may show wear faster if the fabric is thin.
• Think about cost per wear. If you'll wear a tee once a week for years, a higher upfront cost is justified. If it's a seasonal trend piece, go cheaper.
• Don't forget care costs: oversized tees take more space in the wash and dry slower, but that's minor. The real cost is if you shrink or stain a favorite—so follow care instructions.
