Men's T-shirts

A T-shirt that loses its shape after a few washes. A neckline that stretches and gapes. Colors that fade too quickly. You've probably already experienced this disappointment with T-shirts that don't live up to their promises. This problem often stems from a T-shirt made with poor-quality fibers or a fabric that is too lightweight.

Men's T-shirts deserve better, though. Worn almost every day, they form the basis of your wardrobe. A good T-shirt should remain comfortable and retain its shape and color over time. It should also suit your body shape and expectations: round neck or V-neck, short sleeves or long sleeves, plain colors or bolder shades such as pink or khaki.

At SERGE BLANCO, every men's T-shirt is designed in France with this requirement in mind. The brand offers a complete range, with sizes available from S to 6XL, to suit all body types. There are two lines: the Play collection, which is affordable and more urban, and the classic collection, which is positioned at the premium end of the market. Cotton remains at the heart of the designs, crafted into soft jersey for everyday comfort. Many colors are available, with a base of timeless colors (black, white, and blue), complemented each season by trendy shades such as pink, ecru, and brown. From plain to printed versions, the diversity allows every man to put together a wardrobe that suits him.

Round neck or V-neck: two styles, two uses

The crew neck remains the classic choice for men's T-shirts. Its ribbed edge keeps the neckline in place and prevents it from losing its shape. This neckline goes with everything: under a jacket, with jeans, etc. In practical terms, a crew neck T-shirt with a 1 to 2 cm thick ribbed edge is more resistant to repeated washing than a thin finish.

The V-neck adds a different touch. It reveals the neck, visually lengthens the silhouette, and slims the face. This neckline works particularly well worn alone in summer or under a blazer for a more formal look. Men with short necks or round faces appreciate it for its lengthening effect. To choose the right V-neck T-shirt, make sure the V doesn't go too low: 3 to 4 inches below the collarbone is a good depth.

Having both types of collars in your wardrobe gives you more options for everyday wear.

Short sleeves or long sleeves: adapting to every season

The short-sleeved T-shirt is an essential item for sunny days. Lightweight and breathable, it can be worn on its own when temperatures rise. Paired with Bermuda shorts or jeans, it makes for a simple and effective summer outfit. Short-sleeved T-shirts in light colors (white, ecru, pale pink, pale yellow, etc.) are particularly popular from June to August. A light-colored T-shirt reflects the sun's rays and limits the feeling of heat, unlike dark colors, which absorb more.

Long sleeves take over in mid-season. Long-sleeved T-shirts work very well for layering: under a sweatshirt for a casual look, or under an open overshirt to play with textures and colors. By choosing a slightly fitted long-sleeved T-shirt, you can avoid bulkiness under your outer layers.

The range of short-sleeved T-shirts for men is available all year round at SERGE BLANCO, conceived and designed in France to meet the expectations of every man.

Fitted or straight cut: how to choose?

The cut directly influences the comfort and look of your T-shirt. A fitted cut hugs the body, emphasizes the silhouette, and gives a more modern look. It is suitable for slimmer or more athletic physiques. To test whether a fitted T-shirt suits you, pinch the fabric at the hips: you should be able to grab about 3 to 5 cm of fabric, no more.

The regular fit (also known as straight fit) offers more comfort. It does not cling to the body, allows air to circulate, and provides total freedom of movement. This fit remains the preferred choice for men seeking maximum comfort. The straight-fit T-shirt falls naturally along the chest without showing any folds in the stomach when you sit down.

To find your ideal size, refer to the size guide. At SERGE BLANCO, sizes range from S to 6XL (including large sizes such as XL, XXL, XXXL, 4XL, and 5XL), allowing every man to find the garment that suits him. A T-shirt in the right size does not pull at the armholes and retains a clean fit. Tip: measure a T-shirt you already own that fits you well, then compare it with the size guide to avoid mistakes.

Materials and finishes for a T-shirt that lasts

Jersey cotton: lightness and comfort for everyday wear

Cotton jersey is the standard fabric for men's T-shirts. Its knitted mesh gives it a natural flexibility that moves with the body without constricting. Breathable, it wicks away moisture and remains comfortable even when temperatures rise. This mesh structure explains why a jersey T-shirt returns to its original shape after stretching, unlike a woven fabric, which becomes distorted.

A cotton jersey T-shirt can be recognized by its soft feel and light weight. It is easy to wash, dries quickly, and requires little maintenance. Some collections incorporate blends of natural fibers for additional properties. A T-shirt containing a small percentage of fibers such as linen or bamboo gains in freshness without losing strength.

Details that reveal quality

A quality T-shirt is not judged solely on its material. The finishing touches make all the difference in terms of durability. Look at the seams: tone-on-tone, even, and sturdy seams are a sign of careful workmanship. The neckline should be reinforced to prevent it from stretching out. On a well-designed T-shirt, the inner band at the collar prevents rubbing and prolongs the life of the neckline.

At SERGE BLANCO, certain models feature distinctive elements: a badge on the left chest, a slanted pocket, or contrasting finishes. These details add character without overloading the garment. The design, conceived in France, guarantees special attention to every detail. A T-shirt with double topstitching on the shoulders is more resistant to repeated stress when you put on and take off the garment.

Caring for your T-shirt to make it last longer

Proper care significantly extends the life of your T-shirts. Wash at a maximum temperature of 30°C, which is sufficient to clean the cotton without damaging it. Avoid tumble drying, which weakens the fibers. The heat from the dryer shrinks the cotton fibers: your T-shirt can lose up to half a size after several cycles.

Drying flat or on a hanger is still the best option. Turn your T-shirt inside out before putting it in the washing machine: this will preserve the colors and protect any prints. Well-cared-for clothes stay looking good for longer. For printed T-shirts, avoid ironing directly on the print: iron on the reverse side or use a thin cloth between the iron and the fabric.

Colors and styles for a complete wardrobe

The essentials: black, white, blue

These three colors form the basis of any man's wardrobe. They transcend seasons, go with everything, and never go out of style.

The black T-shirt offers absolute versatility. It slims the figure, can be worn from morning to night, and goes just as well with jeans as it does with chinos. Black T-shirts also hide sweat marks better than lighter colors, which is a practical advantage in everyday life. A white T-shirt brings freshness and brightness. A high-quality white T-shirt is opaque enough not to show through: check the fabric in the light before buying. Blue, whether navy or lighter shades, is a less formal alternative.

Having several copies of these basics ensures that you always have a suitable men's T-shirt on hand.

Trendy colors and distinctive shades

Beyond the basics, color allows you to express your style. Each season brings new shades: pink, khaki, ecru, brown, or other colors depending on the trends.

A colorful T-shirt can instantly change the look of an outfit. Sometimes all it takes is a pink or khaki T-shirt to break out of the routine. Pink, long reserved for women, is now establishing itself as a bold masculine color. These colors work particularly well with neutral bottoms such as raw denim jeans, beige or navy blue chinos. To harmonize your outfit, choose a T-shirt in a shade that matches one of your accessories (bracelet, belt, sneakers).

Plain, printed, or limited edition T-shirts—there's something for everyone.

A plain T-shirt is a safe choice. With no pattern, it goes with any outfit and is suitable for any occasion. High-quality cotton and a cut that suits your body shape are very important. You can recognize a high-quality plain T-shirt by the absence of lint after the first few washes and its ability to retain its original color.

Printed T-shirts allow you to express your personality. A graphic design or subtle print adds character to a simple look. For a durable printed T-shirt, choose screen printing or embroidered designs, which are more resistant to washing than heat transfers.

The brand also develops special editions in partnership with sports clubs (such as Stade Toulousain, Rugby Club Toulonnais, Toulouse Football Club, Section Paloise, and many others). These limited-edition garments appeal to men who want to show their attachment to a club while wearing a quality item. A gift idea for rugby or soccer enthusiasts.

At SERGE BLANCO, men's T-shirts are designed with the same high standards as the rest of the collections. From the choice of cotton to the finishing touches, every detail counts to bring you a garment that will accompany you every day, season after season. Each T-shirt bears the same attention to detail that makes the difference between a basic item and a piece that will stand the test of time.
