Anyone know of a good brand for V-neck T-shirts?  My latest ones by Fruit of the Loom don't seem to have a deep enough V in them and they pop out from under my shirt.  Have worn others before that didn't do this... So I'm looking for a different brand to pick up since I need some new ones for my service uniform and also for my trops when I finally snag a set of those.

I have an extensive collection of Hanes t-shirts and am very satisfied with them.

I have found both Hanes and Fruit of the Loom are very good brands.  I have never experienced the Fruit of the Loom "V" cut being too shallow so as to show when wearing the service dress shirt with the collar open.  Both Hanes and Fruit of the Loom can usually be found at decent prices in your local Wal*Mart or similar establishment.

If you're looking for specialty undershirts, UnderArmour makes some pretty good stuff -- great for the field, PT, etc.  For extreme comfort (at a price), Banana Republic has some excellent V-necks with a blend of cashmere with the cotton -- of course, you'll also realize you're paying $20-$35 for an undershirt.   ;D

Seriously though, for everyday use and good general purpose wear, a Hanes v-neck will do you good.

Maybe it is because I have a tree trunk for a neck then (17-17.5)... But I have had other undershirts that didn't show.

I want to try the UnderArmour Loosegear t-shirt and the Coldgear longsleeve one for BDU wear but they are expensive and I've heard that some people are allergic to them.  Christmas is coming though.  I don't think I need expensive undershirts for blues though, a three pack from Wally World or Target should do fine.  And whats this field and PT thing... I ain't never heard of that.  ;D
