This slubbed t-shirt means its thicker than your standard cotton tee. Plus, with details like a slight crop and a ribbed trim, it's anything but basic.

Editor Review: "The Z Supply Modern Slub Tee is my ultimate choice for versatility. While it may come with a slightly higher price tag for a basic, the 100-percent cotton fabric and ribbed trim crew neck make it well worth the investment. It has a solid feel without being overly opaque, making it a staple for work or the weekends. The cropped design adds a touch of modern style, but also has the nostalgic charm of a vintage tee. I can't get enough of the Z Supply and already own three of these fabulous tees."—Isabel McMahon, WH assistant social media editor
