I'm a firm believer that no man over forty should wear a t-shirt with any kind of print on the front (or back). Old Guys Do Not Rule.
So, I'm looking for a plain white (or natural cotton colour), nicely fitted (but not skinny), decent quality, t-shirt. I've tried some from Uniqlo but they're really nosey.
Where might a gentleman source such a garment?
Sunspel.

It sounds like the only person who is going to see it is your mum.
Ask her.
So, I recently went through this after losing a lot of weight and having to buy new clothes. I went to a bunch of different shops looking at plain white, grey and black t-shirts. My favourite by far were Gap Stretch V-neck T-Shirts. I think they do 3 for £20 or something.

Will you be tucking it in to your chinos?
These, brilliant. Looks like you'll need to get them in store though.
Ooh I love a singletrack clothes thread!
They say don't ever meet your guitar hero, i.e they now shop at gap 😃
V-neck T-Shirts.
No.
Will you be tucking it in to your underpants?

You're doing it wrong.
Are we talking string here?
+1 for Sunspel.
Also consider John Smedley - full price can be speedy but they also have an outlet; Crombie (NOT Abercrombie) do a very limited range of block colours inc white but they have suspended all business at present.
Nickc spot on. V neck t shirts are dreadful.

How dare you....
Sunspel - £70 for a plain white t shirt!

Is the OP Simon Cowell?
See, you're stuck.
You're at an awkward age where you feel you need to dress in an appropriate way. Not too young, not yet ready for old age. Your dislike of T shirts with slogans is a revealing sign; it reveals an anxiety, a troubling distance betwixt your youth and the years yet to come.
You need to start wearing shorts.
All the time.
In addition, you would do well to learn the art of not giving a ****; a life skill which takes years to master.

Well I wouldn't want to get a chill on my kidneys now, would I?
Is the OP Simon Cowell?
You're half right.
And no v-necks.

All the time.
WooHaa! This is the answer to eternal youth.
Fair play to ya!
If you're going to buy any T shirts, get black ones, and don't discount supermarket clothing. Sainsburys and Tesco do a good range in hard wearing stuff for not much.

This is so true; it's just liberating!
Uniqlo Supima are amazing value and quality, currently £9.90 for 2 Uniqlo
Try finisterre, very plain with minimal logos and actually well sourced responsible company if you care about any of that. Patagonia, howies some of the banana industries stuff?
Or go for the one with a 30 year guarantee including mending if you get a hole in it. Pricey but long life

Hmmm. Pasta sauce?
White t-shirt? What are you, the Fonz? 🙄
Anyway, Gildan Hammer. Lovely heavyweight material. Loads of colours, even white.
no man over
fortytwenty should wear a t-shirtwith any kind of print on the front
Just throwing in my worthless opinion 🙂
Edit: And I know I'm alone in this view, before you pile in!
Err, what do you wear then?

Yeah, but cooler.

Other tops apart from t-shirts are available 🙂
I’ve tried some from Uniqlo but they’re really nosey.
What does ‘nosey’ mean in this context?
It was 'boxy', but autocorrect disagreed.

C'mon - don't be so coy. Are you a Fred Perry man?

Your point?!

I didn't know you were in an open prison. 🙂

Nah, this boxy number will be tucked right into those cargo pants. Possibly accompanied by some sort of 'approach' shoe I'm going to stab at a pair of Merrells.
Looking good!
👌

Yeah, pretty much most of nearly 66 years, and counting.
Currently wearing a pair of black Route One cargo shorts, and a black tee shirt bearing the phrase ‘SAME AS IT EVER WAS’ in large white letters.
At forty-odd years of age, one would think a man had gone well past the point of giving a shit what anybody else thinks, but maybe that’s just me; my mum stopped buying my clothes for me after I left school.
Hollister. Decent price, fit well. Regular fit or muscle fit.

I don't give a shit, which is why I just want a plain white t-shirt.
Haha...why don't you get a tank top too?!?
