Are these meant to be worn as undershirts or on their own?

They are cut as undershirts: thin cotton, a V-neck that hides under a dress shirt and a straight hem. Some buyers wear them alone on hot days, but others say the thin fabric doesn't look presentable on its own.

How does the classic fit run?

Classic fit is Polo Ralph Lauren's roomier cut, not slim. Buyers describe the armholes as neither too tight nor too loose, so it sits close without binding.

Do they shrink in the wash?

Buyers report barely any shrinking after repeated washing. The bigger complaint is that the cotton stretches out and loses shape over time.

How do they compare with Calvin Klein or Fruit of the Loom V-necks?

Buyers who switched call these more comfortable and breathable than both. The trade-off is thinner fabric that holds its shape less well.

Five cotton V-neck T-shirts in the same classic fit, each with short sleeves, a straight hem and the embroidered Pony at the bottom-left.

Will the V-neck show under a dress shirt?

Buyers say the V-neckline hides well under a buttoned dress shirt, which is the main reason many of them buy it.
