The internet is filled with roundups of the best white T-shirts, and I love that for us, but that’s not the only T-shirt color in the sea. I wear a T-shirt multiple times a week, and only sometimes is it a white one. There are an overwhelming number of T-shirt colors available to choose from in this world, but I can confidently say that the six hues that I’ve highlighted below are the most useful and timeless. (And yes, one of the colors is white.) I humbly consider myself to be a T-shirt expert, so what else is there to do than share the best tees in the most essential colors with you?
Below, you’ll find what I consider to be the top five T-shirts in the most important colors to own. For the sake of consistency, I kept it to all short-sleeve tees. Aside from that, you’ll find a variety of price points and options from both mainstream and more under-the-radar brands. Scroll on to add your next tee to cart.
