Dickies Men's Big & Tall Heavyweight Crew Neck Short Sleeve Tee Big-Tall

My boyfriend loves the Dickies brand (I think he has gone through 20 pairs of Dickies pants), wears the same thing every day, and I was looking for a little cherry-on-top birthday gift for him in March. I impulsively ordered this tee, and when I received it, I was taken aback by how thick and sturdy this shirt is. It is the perfect kind of durable cotton – soft, not even remotely see-through, and keeps him cool at his fast-paced coffee shop job. He also looks SO GREAT in it! It fits him like a dream, with the sleeve and torso hems falling in the best places.I have now ordered two (plus a long sleeve) and I will surely be back to buy more of his now-favorite shirt.

These are my favorite pocket tees. There are 3 different weights. Heavyweight is the best. Light is more like and undershirt to me and mediumweight is ok for warmer weather. These tees last and don't shrink at all. I wear these daily to work and they are comfortable. I get the tall because I tuck mine in and the added length keeps them from pulling out. Normally I am a Carhart wearer, but these tees are more affordable and to me a better fit and adequate for the price difference.

I have trouble finding shirts that are true to size (I'm a 4xl) but Dickies 4xl is true to size always! The shirt material is very good. It's not thin, it's not fading quickly or shrinking. And you can't beat the price!

I love the quality of this shirt. The fabric is heavy, but breathable. It hasn't shrunk in the wash at all. My only complaint is that the XL shirts I ordered are the same size as the 2X shirts I'm replacing. If I had it to do over I would have ordered a size smaller.

Dickies heavyweight crewneck, short sleeve shirts are higher quality. Well-made, cotton shirt with a pocket. Always very comfortable.

Very good quality shirts and at a good price, fit perfect.

Good quality shirt made out of a heavy, durable material, very happy with it

I really like the shirt quailty. Soft and nice for a t-shirt. But this last time I ordered a 4XLT (in handsome Smoke Blue color). The other times I've ordered 3XLT shirts from Dickies. (BTW, I mostly wear Carhartt loose fit heavyweight pocket T's, and I might mention them later for comparison.) I'm not actually 'tall'. Probably just under 6 feet. I like the extra length of "Tall" shirts for added belly coverage when I'm in stretched postilions/movements, such as reaching way up. Or for the back, when bending way forward. I don't love the little slot for a pen provided in the front pocket. I notice my phone fits in my front pocket with Carhartt, but not so with Dickies because of the 'pen pocket' they create. I've learned to ignore that largely irrelevant difference. I typically would never want to carry my phone in my front pocket anyway. (but flipping a smart phone backwards and discreetly running the superior rear camera which just peeks out over the top of the pocket could be strategic or handy, and that just won't work with my large cased phone in my Dickies shirts. But I can see how some people would prefer the Dickies pocket configuration. The weight of the cotton material is 6.75 oz. (same as C brand I mentioned)Now for the only reason I was actually motivated to write this review...The neck hole on this 4XLT Dickies is ENORMOUS! It's as if they think you go from a normal neck in a 3XLT, to a Jurassic tree trunk sized neck in a 4XLT. Have you ever seen the funny news clip on YT where the giggling female reporter jokes "Every day is neck day!" when they show a mugshot of a guy with an incredibly wide neck? HE might fit into a Dickies 4XLT correctly. The truth is, you can be a big guy, or even a very big guy, and still have a relatively normal sized neck! And frankly if your neck is as wide as a beer barrel, you probably could quickly and easily (naturally, without trying) stretch into fitting a previously NORMAL neck-size shirt. But doing the opposite is impossible. If you have a normal neck, you will be hopeless to ever correctly fit into your Dickies 4XLT shirt.My Dickies 4XLT shirt dangles about the neck. It feels like a low-cut blouse (I assume) due to the way it drapes low upon my chest. I'm like Jessica Lange in 1976 "King Kong" with her loose fitting blouses. ...Speaking of Kong, his neck would probably would fit perfectly in a 4XLT Dickies. I mean, ONLY the neck part would fit him right. It has put me off Dickies so much I'm not sure when or if I will buy another Dickies shirt. ...meanwhile, there is Carhartt who has never served me a floppy necked shirt, even in 4XLT sizes. And with Carhartt, I fit quite comfortably into a 'measly' 2XL (regular, not even 'tall' is required) loose fit heavyweight cotton T. (Carhartt product K87) But I also buy about as many 3XL and 3XLT as I do 2XL in Carhartt, just for added super-comfy loose wearing. I can even wear a 4XLT in Carhartt, still without encountering neck fitting problems. Carhartt assumes your neck is normal human sized, I guess. Giant neck openings are a known problem for some companies. Check reviews for Duluth heavyweight "long tail" shirts. Lots and lots of complaints in reviews about enormous necks which "would fit over a barrel" are what caught my eye and made me laugh. I went ahead bought some, and after looking sent them back before even wearing them because the necks were indeed HUGE! (Duluth kept half of the total money on my entirely pristine still-sealed return of 4 shirts, so Duluth makes decent money on RETURNS, which explains a lot) So bad, and such a known flaw of that brand, that I won't try them again. I noticed tons of those scathing reviews had disappeared but were already replaced with new ones when I came back to look again.They don't let them pile up. Again, I mention other brands similar t-shirt offerings so it gives more useful and robust perspective to my Dickies review. BTW, Duluth is the heaviest weight cotton of all.I wear a 3XL motorcycle helmet. I arrived at that size 3 different times, when buying a new helmet. And I just put on my Dickies 4XLT shirt without touching my head as I slipped it on! That amazing (but disappointing) feat is what brought me to my PC to write this. I measured the circumference of my Dickies 4XLT neck hole. It's a whopping 30 inches new with zero stretching. That's how big it will be to start, and of course it will stretch to become even larger over time and normal wear.in conclusion, I can highly recommend Dickies for any size from 3XLT to smaller. Comfortable, attractive, nice. Don't buy 4XLT unless you know what you're getting into.I gave this 4XLT Dickies shirt a 3-star review based on the mammoth neck hole. I'd give all my other smaller Dickies shirts a 5-star review.
