On a list of wardrobe essentials—the stuff every stylish man needs to own—there should always be a black T-shirt. It is the foundation of any casual look, a garment that’ll work with everything else. Whether you wear it on its own with shorts and sandals, accessorized with some bold aviators, or layered purposefully under a suit jacket with matching trousers, there are few situations where a black T-shirt doesn’t come in handy.
We’ve said the same thing about white tees and colorful options, sure, but the black T-shirt sits above ’em in the sartorial hierarchy. It is the most flattering; there’s no need to worry too much about lumps and sags peering through. And it doesn’t stain as easily as its lighter-hued brethren. There’s also a variety, from loose and heavy styles with pockets to fitted, soft pieces with cashmere blends. All you must do is pick the one that works best for you, because not all black T-shirts are equal. Here are 20 of the best to check out right now.
