Dudes --

I'm realizing, a bit too late this year (as summer has already ended in these parts) that I really like wifebeaters (when they're not on a too-skinney or really fat guy). I like how they look, and like how they let me flaunt my assets a little bit while still looking casual. Right now I just have a few holey, ratty, old white ones. This weekend I'm thinking of getting some nice, clean, form-fitting, black ones. My only pet peeve is how after a short while of wearing a freshly laundered one, the ribbed texture gets stretched out, and the shirt starts to look kind of saggy. Got any recommendations for a brand that holds its shape and keeps its tight-against-the-body look?
 
As long as it is not K-Fed looking...keep it up. Look for brands with a bit of lyrca to hold tight to the bod and hold their shape. I like the 2xist brand.
 
Go for it bro, wifebeaters can be super hot if worn in the right way. It sounds like you have a good idea what it should look like. Nice brands such as stated by Chris should do the trick. Make sure you post a pic in your gallery of yourself in one when you get a nice new one. ..|
 
What does "K-fed" looking mean? I'm not familiar with the slang. Is it an abbreviation for cornfed? Well, I AM a midwesterner (for most of my life), so I am, by definition, cornfed. The only thing I'm little self-conscious about is what people think of my musky armpit hair. Then again, my whole arm is pretty hairy, so it just looks like an extension of it. The other great thing about wifebeaters is that they give you motivation to eat healthily and get regular exercise, so you look good in 'em.

Kevin Federline! Britney's husband.
 
I wear a wife-beater under my work shirt every day :D I like 'em
 
Well, gosh darn, I'm not up on the pop culture. I'm assuming that a K-fed look is bad, then (whatever that look is), as I associate with Satan anything having to do with Britney.
 
I've worn them all my life, as undershirts! I don't wear them any other way. When I was a small child, that was the style of undershirt chosen for me by my sainted Sicilian mother. I wore those white "athletic" shirts instead of the regular white t-shirts most little boys wore as undershirts.

My grandfathers (both old Sicilian guys) wore them too.

When I had to wear regular t-shirts for PE class in school, I only wore them for that purpose, preferring instead to wear the "athletic" shirts otherwise.

I wear them to this day, because they are comfortable, don't bunch up under your arms, and if you perspire, they dry quickly. My brand of choice now is Towncraft from JC Penney's (also the brand of tighty whities that I prefer). I don't like to hear them called "wifebeaters."

BTW, my Dave won't wear undershirts, not even in winter. That's okay with me because when he does get cold, he comes looking for Ron's warm Sicilian body...(hehehe!):D
 
I don't like them especially, I'm very fussy about the underwear on my men. t-shirts and jockey shorts, everybody looks good in em, you can't go wrong.
 
I don't have a big problem with the term "wifebeater" -- I think the linkage to a drunken, sloppy domestic abuser has gotten pretty weak in people's minds by now, and I hear girls using the term just as much as guys. In fact, it's the only term I hear these days. I love wearing them on the weekends in hot weather, and also to work out, but I respect that it's a matter of taste. There are two aspects of it that I like -- the old-world Sicilian grandfather effect that you described (especially if you have a bit of chest-carpeting sticking out the top), and the sheer, thuggishly inappropriateness and I-don't-give-a-damnness of using as outerwear. On the right guy, they look sexy as hell, too.

The first link that you posted looks good. The last one looks kind of odd, and maybe a bit to fancy-schmantzig for me. I hate mail-order, though. Once I ordered some underwear online, and ended up getting these really weird, over-the-top catelogues (I'm talking about lycra shirts with lace-up sides, jockstraps with built-in cockrings, crazy see-through bikini briefs---stuff I'm nowhere confident enough in my masculinity to be caught dead wearing) sent to my mailbox on an almost monthly basis, that my roommates would then pick up ("what have YOU been ordering!?")
 
mnost of the good beaters i have are either 2xist or calvin

try those
 
I love tanks tops and wear them almost daily. Check out the Calvin Klein Basics 3-pack. They just re-designed them. They are not ribbed anymore and are cut tighter and shorter and have a squared off neckline. The old ones would stretch out of shape. I talked to a CK rep at Macy's and she showed me the new look and I love them.
 
Thanks for all the tips. Will check out the CKs. Though, I hate the thought of buying namebrand. Not because I can't afford them -- it just seems extravagant to pay premium prices for something like a beater. Though, sometimes you get what you pay for. I often see this guy wearing a black wifebeater, and on the edges, there is a really thin bit of trimming kind of like the Maryland Terps design. It looks really snazzy and a little bit different. This one time, I wanted to ask him where he got it, but didn't want him to think I was coming on to him. If a stranger compliments me on my clothes, I avtomatically think s/he is coming onto me.

Und Bilder, shave my 'pits? I'm assuming your joking :P
 
Check out International Male. If you have the bod, they have the clothes. You might catch a summer clearance, too.
 
I love the look but they are functionally incompatible with my physiology. I'd much prefer some sort of undergarment that protected my pits without exposing too much else.
