Let me start by saying, this isn't just another basic tee - it's an Armani Exchange tee, and that comes with certain expectations. The first thing you'll notice is that silky-soft fabric. It feels premium against your skin, like that perfect middle ground between sturdy and buttery soft.

Now about the fit - listen up because this is crucial! The 'size up' comments aren't kidding. I'm usually a medium in most brands, but this tee hugged my arms and chest like it was trying to prove a point. If you're into that fitted, muscle-tee look (and let's be honest, who isn't at the gym?), it's fantastic. But if you prefer breathing room, definitely go one size larger.

The logo placement is subtle yet recognizable - exactly what you want from a designer tee. I've worn mine to casual Friday at work (paired with a blazer) and out on weekends with jeans, and it held up perfectly through multiple washes without fading.

Here's the real test: After three months of regular wear, the collar hasn't stretched out (hallelujah!) and the seams are still tight. That said, at this price point, I'd expect nothing less from Armani Exchange.

Final verdict? If you catch it on sale and size up wisely, it's absolutely worth adding to your rotation. Just don't make my mistake of waiting too long to exchange if the fit isn't right!
