"Is 200 GSM always better? My friend says premium tees are heavy."

Look, I've had this conversation at the counter more times than I can count. There's this idea that heavy equals luxury. It's not that simple. A 200 GSM tee can feel amazing—structured, durable, premium. But if you're wearing it in the wrong context, it's just uncomfortable.

I've seen $80 tees with sloppy seams and $20 tees that outlast them. GSM is just one number. You gotta look at the whole shirt: stitching, collar, fabric feel. Don't let a big number fool you.

Here's a quick way to tell: pick up the tee and hold it up to the light. If you can see through it easily, it's probably under 150 GSM. If it feels like a light sweater, you're in the 200s. Use your hands, not just the tag.
