True 100 percent comfortable cotton as advertized. Thats exqctly what I was looking for. The weight was almost a half pond per square yard, and they shrink wonderfuuly into the classic fit that I was looking for. I liked the first two sets of these Gildans so much that I rounded-out my collection in other colors. Now I have plenty of fresh looking 100 cotton midweight shirts. They are so comfortable that I use them for pajamas, and they are so inexpensive that they can be easily discarded or sent to the rag bucketwhen they get old, stretched-out, and oily. Obviously, you have to order about 1.5 sizes or 2 sizes larger to compensate for shrinkage. When they shrink, they become more dense and act more like a midweight fabric, and become more solid. If you ask me, people should know all of these things before they invest in 100 percent cotton apparel. About the only negative thing I can say is that 100 percent cotton is not comfortable when it gets wet, so unless you are scuba diving with these, or something like that, then I would go with a synthetic. But for indoor and most outdoor things, these are perfect and economical. Very comfortable with this purchase. Minnesota Murph
