T-Shirts: Everything you need to know
T-shirts are more than just basics - they are a fashion statement. But how do you spell "T-shirt" correctly? Why shouldn't you wear one on a plane? And where do those little holes in the fabric come from? Here you'll find the most important answers: from the best fit for your body type to care tips and the perfect T-shirt weather.
How do you spell “T-shirt” correctly?
The correct spelling is with a hyphen: T-Shirt . The "T" stands for the shape of the shirt, which is reminiscent of the letter. Alternatively, you can also read "Tshirt" or "T Shirt", but this is not the correct German spelling.
At what temperature can you wear a T-shirt?
For many people, the perfect T-shirt weather starts at 18-20 degrees . Those who are not so sensitive to the cold can wear it at 15 degrees with a light jacket.
How much does a T-shirt weigh?
A standard t-shirt weighs between 150 and 200 grams , depending on the material and size. High-quality streetwear t-shirts with thicker fabric have a higher weight. Our BEAHATER t-shirts use a minimum of 240-280 GSM , which ensures a long-lasting, high-quality finish.
Why do small holes appear in T-shirts?
The main reasons are:
- Friction (e.g. from belts or trouser buttons)
- Washing machine (too high spin speed or wrong detergent)
- Inferior fabric quality – which does not happen with our BEAHATER Essentials , as we rely on robust fabrics.
Which T-shirt suits a large belly?
Loose cuts and dark colors flatter the figure. Oversized T-shirts, like our Essential Puff Green Oversized T-Shirt , fit relaxed and look stylish.
Why shouldn't you wear a T-shirt on a plane?
Airplane cabins are often heavily air-conditioned. A T-shirt alone can quickly become too cold. It's better to layer with a hoodie or jacket.
What to do if a T-shirt has shrunk?
Place it in lukewarm water with hair conditioner, leave it for 10 minutes and gently pull it into shape. Our T-shirts are washable up to 30°C to ensure durability and shape stability.
How long does it take for a T-shirt to dry?
Depending on the thickness of the material and the ambient air, it takes about 4-6 hours , usually faster in the fresh air.
What to do about sweat stains on your T-shirt?
Mix baking soda or vinegar with water, rub in and leave for 30 minutes before washing the shirt.
How can I have a T-shirt printed?
There are numerous online providers for individual prints. Or you can go for streetwear with statement prints , like our Real is Rare Steel T-shirt with a unique wash.
Which T-shirt brands are recommended?
In addition to the well-known mainstream brands, more and more people are relying on independent streetwear labels that combine style and quality – like our BEAHATER Blank T-Shirt Black, produced in Portugal.
