BEHIND THE SCENES

It's Always a White Tee Summer

It's getting to be that time in the year when your T-shirt rotation feels either suddenly overplayed — or suddenly lacking. Enter the official Highsnobiety ranking of the 17 best white tees in existence, in which we review and nit-pick our go-to favorites, including standbys from Lady White, Jjjjoud, Fruit of the Loom, Skims, CDLP, and more. (Of course, you know we have thoughts on the Merz B. Schwanen...)

For our esteemed newsletter readers, Highsnobiety News Director Jake Silbert has a bonus pick: His personal favorite white tee is technically the Jungmaven muscle tee — for when it's simply too hot to bother with sleeves at all. "The trick isn't just the cut — I size up to get a nice loose fit with an extended body that I can tuck in — but the fabric," Jake explains. "Jungmaven uses hemp and hemp blends that are soft even before washing. Bonus: their dyes fade nicely over time so, if you should stray from white tees, it's easy to attain a nice lived-in look." A pro tip from a pro tee-wearer. Your shirt rotation will thank us!

(More recently, Perro also designed Jay-Z's anniversary shows in NYC). But for a piece of Perron that you can actually incorporate into your home, there's always those beautiful Knoll couches...

GOOD POINT

"The best way to wear cargos is to keep them cargo-free, treating the extra space as the concept of an object rather than an actual physical object."

— Highsnobiety style writer Chris Erik Thomas on how to do cargo shorts correctly

SHOPPER SELECT

Running Shorts That Also Go Swimming

"Equal parts elastic, durable, lightweight, and easy on the eyes, Nike's 5-inchers aren't limited to the track or treadmill," attests Highsnobiety Shopping Editor Max Migowski. "Due to its sweat-attuned moisture absorption capabilities, the briefs in question are great for the pool too, and will effortlessly hold their own as the bottom half of a hot day's outfit." After all, you're not still trying to wear full-on chinos or, egad, denim in this heat, are you?
