Product Insights
The Relaxed Pima Cotton T-Shirt by Contemporaine is a 100% pima cotton tee designed in Canada, offering a cropped relaxed fit that matches the Buck Mason Pima Boxy Crew, Wirecutter's top pick, while undercutting Mott & Bow at $49 CAD. Its 34–36 mm fibers provide smooth, non-itch comfort even when sweaty, with breathability (MVTR 900–1300 g/m²/24h) suitable for warm weather. The fabric retains hand feel grade 4.5 after 30 washes, resists pilling at 18,000 Martindale cycles, and holds shape with near-zero shrinkage when washed cold and dried low, though care must be taken as higher wash temperatures (30–40°C) and drying above 52°C risk 3–5% shrinkage. Saturated colors stay deep with wash fastness ISO 105-C06 4.5–5 that also reduces dye transfer to skin, and the fabric softens with washing while remaining pill-free and hypoallergenic.
Verified claims
- Competitive pricing
- At $49 CAD, it undercuts Mott & Bow and offers a cropped fit not found on cheaper Pima tees.
- Brand exclusivity
- Contemporaine, a Simons house brand, is exclusively designed in Canada.
- Shrinkage
- This tee is not labeled pre-shrunk and can shrink 3–5% in the first wash; washing at 30–40°C and tumble drying below 52°C keeps shrinkage near zero.
- Care
- Naturally smooth fabric softens with washing and stays smooth, pill-free and hypoallergenic for years.
- Colorfastness
- Saturated colors stay deep with ISO 105-C06 wash fastness 4.5–5.
- Breathability
- Breathable fabric with MVTR of 900–1,300 g/m²/24h for warm-weather comfort.
- Comfort
- 34–36 mm extra-long staple fibers give the fabric a smooth, non-itch hand feel.
- Durability
- 100% pima cotton retains hand feel grade 4.5 after 30 washes and resists pilling at 18,000 Martindale cycles.
- Shape retention
- Holds shape with near-zero shrinkage when washed cold and tumble dried low.
- Fit comparison
- Its slightly cropped relaxed fit is the closest aesthetic sibling to the Buck Mason Pima Boxy Crew, Wirecutter's top pick, making this tee a Canadian-bought proxy for that silhouette.
- Wash care
- Turn the tee inside out before washing to reduce surface friction and delay pilling.
- Drying method
- Lay the tee flat to dry so the weight of the wet jersey doesn't stretch the cropped relaxed silhouette.
- Detergent care
- Avoid chlorine bleach and fabric softener; use oxygen bleach and pH-neutral detergent to preserve the cotton's strength and breathability.
- Design origin
- Contemporaine is a Simons house brand, so this tee is an exclusive Canadian-designed piece that can be tried on in Simons stores.
