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.

Pleeeease bring back the Organic Tees!

Probably one of my favorite products at Athleta. I bought one in gray and immediately bought another one in white. I like to wear this for outdoor activities because it is loose and breathable. The fabric does not feel like a polyester on your skin.

I own in multiple colors and the 2 necklines and I was looking forward to purchasing and seeing other colors pop up. The other tee shirts are not the same. This is my Favorite t-shirt fit and feel. Please don't discontinue.
