Artiga has slight edge over Soffe, March 29, 2007
We bought both this brand Soffe and the Artiga to compare. We like Artiga more as far as a somewhat silkier look and feel, but they run a tad small and you may want to order a size larger than you usually wear. Soffe was also excellent quality, but more in the vein of a true cotton t-shirt and runs true to size.

Could have been better, October 17, 2007
I have seen the deterioration in quality of clothing over the past five years. Is it due to moving the manufacturing locations to other countries? I don't know, but I do know that the cut of this tshirt, like two other brands I've tried since 2002, has changed and is far less comfortable to wear. The thickness of the material is also thinner than past purchases. This tshirt's thickness is the equivalent of tshirts I've owned and washed many times. Sure it's soft, but I won't buy any more.

NOT the same shirt!, October 31, 2008
This review is from: Soffe Men's Classic 100% Cotton Short Sleeve T-Shirt (Apparel)
I think some of these older reviews are for a different shirt than I bought; I actually wanted to the shirt that they were reviewing because it's the shirt that you'd get at the BX, and I've loved those since I was in the Air Force.
Unfortunately, the shirts I bought seem to actually be an upgrade over the previous version. These fit larger, and seem to be really abject to any shrinkage. Also, they're much thicker, which is not something I was looking for at all. Hence the three star review.
That being said, just because it's not the shirt I wanted doesn't make it a bad shirt. It's actually a pretty good shirt; tight seems, thick, and un-shrinkable. The sleeves are a little long, though, and it tends to not taper as well as the older model.
Bottom Line: If you're looking for the old black soffee shirt that we wore with our BDU's, this isn't it.
