Apparently these are not your typical tees. There are 30 100% cotton threads in each strand of ringspun yarn in their Fine Cotton tees. Megablend tees are designed for active pastimes and the superweight is, apparently, going to make the standard heavy duty t-shirts you have feel like tofu. The science of Magpul T-shirts Over the years, we’ve used a lot of different T-shirt blanks to print our Magpul branded tees. We’ve been dedicated to the search for “the perfect T-shirt”, but have never been entirely happy with anything we found. In the end, we realized that the only way to get everything we wanted was to solve it like we solve other problems…by making our own. Magpul Engineered T-s. The quality, comfort, and value that you expect from Magpul. The Fine Cotton T-Shirt has been designed and engineered from the fiber to finished garment to be the softest, most comfortable, mid-weight T-Shirt available. Using 100% ring spun cotton and preshrunk, these T’s are constructed with a cut-n-sew pattern exclusive to Magpul. This method of construction features a side seam that controls twisting and torque and is finished off with our own rib collar and custom neck tape. The Megablend T-shirt, in a similar weight to our Fine Cotton model, offers a more athletic look and feel, with its soft breathable blend of 50% cotton, 38% Poly, and 12% Rayon. Preshrunk and constructed with Magpul’s own Cut-N-Sew pattern engineering, this tough T will hold up to plenty of abuse and repeated wash cycles. We finish it off with our own rib collar and custom neck tape. The Superweight T-Shirt, as the name implies, is our heaviest construction. Using our standard Cut-N-Sew pattern engineering, this 100% ring spun cotton T weighs in at a whopping 7.5 oz. and is perfect when warmth, concealment, and durability are desired. As with all the Magpul T’s the Superweight is finished with our own rib collar and custom neck tape. www.magpul.com/tshirts Why you can trust RECOIL Since our founding in 2012, RECOIL remains the premier firearms lifestyle publication for the modern shooting enthusiast.
