Check out Wonder Looper: wonderlooper.c...
btw this video isn't sponsored and I didn't even get a free shirt, I just think this is a very cool project!
Note I'm 6 feet and 188-ish pounds, I'm wearing a Medium at 2:44. I normally wear Large, you can see the Medium is pretty fitted on me.
Bahzad is 163-ish pounds and in a Medium at the 2:55 mark.
At 12oz per square yard, the t-shirt is a double heavyweight shirt because it's twice as thick as a heavyweight shirt from anyone else. The hoodie is just under 21oz.
00:00 Intro
00:56 All about the world's heaviest t-shirt
04:05 How brands lie about fabric weight
04:50 The world's heaviest hoodie
06:11 how to wash heavyweight tees and hoodies
07:13 What's next for Wonder Looper?

I love the idea and the guy seems really cool. $125 for a t shirt and $342 for the hoodie just prices me out, though. I'd be willing to go something like $80/$150

Try Freenote Cloth. $75 Tee that's even thicker then the Wonderlooper tee. And they have a sweatshirt that's $150 and it's also thicker then Wonderlooper sweatshirt.

I got the 701 gsm crewneck and French terry is just OK of a fabric. It's used in a lot of sportswear, but it's not super soft nor very warm. The Strike Gold loopwheeled sweater is much softer, also very heavy. Slightly less than this one, but cheaper. I am a bit disappointed, but I do like the colour. Still wearing it for longer to make my final decision

That's the thing. Yeah, these are heavy AF, but are they soft, comfortable? I can understand wanting sturdy denim, waxed cotton jackets, leather jackets; but when it comes to knitwear, comfort should always come first.

Is there a video where you sort of lay out your philosophy about clothing? Or like a primer on what you look for in your fashion selections. I look at selvedge denim and its high price tag, and none of it really makes sense to me. And I don’t really “get” the appeal of a heavy tee shirt or hoodie, at least not to the extent that I get leather jackets and footwear.

@Stridewise Жыл бұрын

Good idea, i've been thinking about doing a video like that! i like lighter clothes in the winter but when it's not warm, i definitely appreciate the 'protected' kind of filling you get from thicker clothes. kinda makes you feel very ready for the world, like you have a little layer of armor! i definitely get that it's not for everyone though

Why do we need thick cotton fabrics? Polyester has come a long way. Polyester fabrics are softer and more comfortable than they were years ago. They don’t fade and can last for years. Polyester/cotton blends are preferred for workwear when it comes down to durability.

Seems like a bit of a stunt to me. Too heavy for most. You put a t-shirt on for the warmer weather. Samurai, The Flat Head, Studio D'Artisan do great 'heavyweight' tees which are still breathable and comfortable, and half the price This just seems like it'll be too much to me. Maybe not, I'll have to try one on.

Big fan of Stridewise here but why are you saying this is the "World's Heaviest Tee" when other companies make heavier garments? Freenote Cloth has a t-shirt and sweatshirt that are both heavier and cheaper. Merz B. Schwanen has been making a tee for years that's heavier too. Your at least the second heritage clothing channel that has made this claim but it's incorrect. I really do enjoy your videos but it is frustrating to see you make this erroneous claim to your viewership.

Glad to hear they worked well for your long torso.
