4 way test for softness, weight, and quality
in a search for a soft heavy tee, i bought and compared these 4, all new, unwashed, XL, & 100 % cotton:

240 grams

326 grams
Pro Club Heavy Weight

RN # 100418
$8.75 ($5.25 + $3.50 shipping + no tax)
291 grams
Softness (new unwashed): 1st (tie) Joes & Gildan, 3rd (tie) Champ & ProClub
Shoulder width (widest to narrowest): Champ, Gildan, Joes, ProClub
Length (longest to shortest): Gildan = Champ, Joes = ProClub
Width at bottom (widest to narrowest): Champ, Gildan, Joes = ProClub
bottom line - all appeared to be of similar and high quality, the lighter/thinner Joes & Gildan seem softer as new, the Champion certainly the largest cut ... all winners at this point , with Gildan being the bargain
