I wish those shirts were thinner. They absolutely suck to wear in the summer. Especially if they are a dark color. But yeah; for $3? They do make good work shirts.
What you’re looking for is a cotton/polyester blend. You can pick these ands ton of other options up on “blank goods” sellers like ninjablanks. They usually drop the price a ton at 12 pcs. I recommend the Next Level N6210, personally. They’re a little bit more, but super comfortable.
I've considered that too. Pretty soft?
I find the fabric a bit rough compared to most tees, but they’re durable as hell.
Might be worth it.
Someone figured out the trick I've been using for a decade and a half, bravo!
Is there a life hack like this for jeans too by any chance?

That's a weird webshop. I wouldn't trust buying anything from a store that has a bunch of empty categories and broken links. Feels like a scam.
I’ve bought from them like 4 times, although I shared your concerns the first time. I figured the prices were so good it was worth taking a chance. I’ve never had a problem, and I love the clothes.
Scammers usually put a little bit more effort, maybe they're struggling to get things done? Someone has to find out and tell us.
My mother would go to Michael's and buy wreaths and decorate them to hang on the door for different seasons or holidays. It was fun going with her to find things to decorate the wreaths with.
Gildan makes a lot of their shirts in pretty bad sweatshops.
But if you're looking for t-shirts made somewhere more "ethical", prepare to literally pay 10x the price.
For my workout or dirty work shirts I go to thrift stores. There'll be lots of polyester/cotton blend shirts but probably still gonna be more than $3.
From what I can see Gildan shirts are made in Canada. Saying they use "pretty bad sweatshops" is a pretty inflammatory accusation. Please either provide some documentation or take this down.
A little more looking reveals that Glidan was one of the first textile businesses accredited by the Fair Labor Association, a nonprofit created during the Clinton administration to monitor and verify labor practices worldwide.
But you've got a map with dots on it.
An organization funded by the companies it monitors.
Srsly? Not saying you're wrong but could you share your research that led you to that? Wikipedia says it's "a non-profit collaborative effort of universities, civil society organizations, and businesses," founded by a government-created task force that included apparel companies and human rights groups.
Hey, that's convenient: I was just thinking about customizing a T-shirt for a costume and wondering where to get the solid-color shirt itself, and now here you come along with a recommendation. Thanks!
Now I just need to decide whether I'd rather try to figure out heat transfer vinyl or screen printing...
$3 t-shirts? Wow
