Russell Men's and Big Men's Active Fresh Force Recycled Crew Neck Short Sleeve Tee Shirt, up to Size 5XL

Ever since purchasing the first black shirt, I bought 10 more, in different colors. The material is phenomenal. Incredibly comfortable. Much nicer than cotton. It feels like silk. Very affordable! Love it.

So impressed was I at the initial look and feel of the Russell Performance Long Sleeve Crew Neck Tee minutes after receipt that I pulled in on almost immediately. Looking over the silky texture of the interweave of superfine threads in a dark British racing or avocado green and black made me think that hundreds of years ago only royalty could afford the cost of so fine and intricate a weave and definition of color. Modern medicine aside, that's one of the many benefits of living in the 21st century; finer fashions made by hundreds of skilled weavers and designers afforded for hundreds and/or thousands of years only by royalty and wealthy merchants (like watches), is now available at affordable prices to the general public. That's how I felt after trying on the silky soft, dark green and black Russell Performance Long Sleeve Crew Neck Tee. I tried it on in several combinations (a couple shown in the photos) and was frequently complimented for my good taste in tee shirts. Fifty years ago that would have been much more exciting, but I will say that even now as part of a geriatric retirement community the thought that I can still play a fashion plate is very satisfying.
