Great quality tshirt

This shirt runs bigger than most basic tees since it's more of a boxy fit. I went a size down to an XS (I'm 127 lbs, 5'4", 34c), and it's a perfect fit. It still is loose and not too short. I have the pretty shade of green and just purchased the white with the fine grayish stripe. This one pairs gre...

Pleeeease bring back the Organic Tees!

The boxy cropped fit of this essential tee is just not a good look for my 5'7" broad shouldered LONG torso HOURGLASS athletic figure.

This is the only shirt that I like wearing in the warmer months! The length is perfect and the fabric is so soft! I wear these shirts every week. I recently visited your store in KC on the plaza specifically to buy more of these shirts. I left with only one item, but I was planning to leave with at least two of these shirts and more!

As many others have said- this is the best top! I have lots of colors in long and short sleeve. I love them! Please bring this style back, and don't change the fit!

If you discontinue, I will never shop at Athleta again!

Please BRING THESE BACK. Do not change them, just restock. I don't even care if you only carry just black, white, and navy. I own the crew neck, v neck, and the long sleeve and they're the best. I will never forgive you for this, Athleta!! And while I am here, bring back the original salutation legging design as well.

This tee is so perfectly fitted. It's loose and breezy and yet slenderizing. I noticed that it's not in stock. Please bring it back I need the 10% elastane to slip over my injured shoulder. LOVE this tee.

Please bring back this style. I own this in several colors and it's the BEST t-shirt. The material, the length and the fact that it's not thin makes it divine. Really hoping this is restocked before Summer 2026.
