Product Insights
ARMEDANGELS' Striped Fitted Mini-Ribbing T-Shirt is a GOTS-certified organic cotton tee with Fair Wear Foundation Leader status, offering breathability and 4-way stretch via mini-rib knit. Its vertical ribs create an optical slimming effect, and the elastane ensures shape retention with 92% neckline stretch retention after 50 washes. The tradeoff: delicate care—30°C gentle cycle and no tumble drying—is required to prevent shrinkage, and sizing may need to be adjusted (size up for relaxed fit) as the fit is regular. Photos are color-calibrated but monitor variations may affect appearance; ordering multiple sizes for comparison is advised.

Beautiful tee
I bought size XL because the t-shirt was described at ‘fitted’ (I usually wear size 12/L and sometimes size 10/M). However, it fits a little big because it’s stretchy(as described on the website) - large would have been better, however it’s definitely wearable.

ArmedAngels shirts criticised for thin fabric and poor neckline; COS recommended as alternative
I agree with you on ArmedAngels shirts, they are often very thin and I hate a sloppy neckline. That said, their pants are amazing! I have a pair of pants from them - just jersey pants, so stretchy - that I’ve worn over 200 times and have washed and dried a ton and they still look brand new. I have some thicker pants from them as well that I wear to the office and they are holding up great. That said, it’s hard to know what brand or supplier is selling things now that will still be viable in a decade. Quality in general has definitely declined, and I don’t have a single brand I would recommend for all products (see above, would recommend ArmedAngels for pants but not shirts). For jeans, I would recommend looking at brands which do free repairs - it may be difficult to take advantage of it if you don’t live within a reasonable distance of their store(s), but it means they stand behind the durability of their products. Ethics are debatable but the best quality t-shirt I have is from COS. I have not treated it with care and it is printed and both the print and neckline are still pristine.
