Customers find the undershirt effective, with no sweat marks under the arms and good sweat protection. The undershirt receives positive feedback for its sizing and value for money, though opinions on comfort and fit are mixed – while some find it soft and well-fitting, others describe it as feeling like wearing diapers under their armpits and running large.

9-inch Diameter Sweat rings? PLEASE READ
This is my review of the Thompson Tee Regular Crewneck shirt in the large fitment.It was a week before my interview and instead of preparing myself mentally, I was dreading the future event immensely…I’ve been a sweaty person most of my adult life and I ONLY sweat under my armpits. It does not matter if its 10 degrees outside or if I’m in the driest place on Earth my pits will always be super saturated. I’ve noticed over the years that around certain people, like my immediate family and really close friends, I do not sweat around them. But again, this is never 100% I would say its about 30/70, 70 being the chance that I will sweat around really close ones. Unfortunately, if we are doing anything in public is supersoak time. And By the way, when I mean I sweat under my pits, I don’t mean those little 2×1 sweat pits, I’m talking I’m talking sweat rings with the diameter of like 8 or 9 inches! Sometimes more!!So if you can relate to this then please listen!I ordered the shirt as a last ditch effort, subconsciously KNOWING it would not work for me because I sweat A LOT. I received the package very fast in fact, a few days earlier than expected. When I opened it I was shocked at how thick and dare I say: Diapery the hydro-shield was. I felt let down because during inspection (holding it up to a light), it looked like a thick piece of cotton that you can see through. And we all know that no amount of cotton can stop our sweaty armpits.Later that night, when my wife and I had to go to Wal-Mart, I curiously slipped on the Thompson Tee and wore a lime green shirt over it. By now, you understand that I can sweat through that in less than a minute…but I wanted to put it to the test before I wore it to my interview. I checked my pits every ten minutes or so and nothing at all every time.It did not make and detectable noise for me to hear. And it felt like a warm towel under my armpits because it absorbed the sweat really well. The shirt manufacturer states that the sweat absorbed will evaporate with the natural bellow-like movement your arms create when moving them. It isn’t like you have to go around flapping like a bird, instead its the natural movements for example: moving your arms walking, lifting things up, any action that sways your arms up down or side to side, etc. Success!, a whole trip without sweat marks on my outer shirt I was SOLD, I turned the shirt inside out and allowed the shirt to dry so I could use it during the interview.The next morning, and I’m getting ready for my interview. I had full faith in my Thompson Tee and wore a ultra light blue long sleeve polo( a shirt my wife bought me that I never wore). I was nerve wracked but this time it was not because of my sweating it was because of the actual interview. FAILURE, I looked down late in my 2 hour interview and my heart sank. The sweat had made its way under the hydroshield and I had sweat marks in the midsection of my ribs. That only made me more nervous and the remaining time I was no longer looked confident as I had to hold my arms kinda like a t-rex to try and hide my sweat. After I got done with the interview I sprinted to my truck. I was honestly devastated but I was intent on making my purchase worth it so I tried to figure out what went wrong. I believe it was the fact that it was long sleeve. I would highly recommend not wearing a long sleeve shirt if you have hyperhidrosis like me and plan on sitting down for 2 hours of an intense nerve wracking event.That being said I actually got the job. When I went to orientation I knew they would throw me in a blue uniform and put me to work so I wore my thompson tee and a white nike dry fit over it. The uniform had not came in yet so they handed me a grey shirt. I went to the bathroom and decided to just put the grey shirt over both the thompson tee and the nike dry fit. I worked from 7am til 4:13pm that day and NOT A SINGLE SWEAT MARK!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I was so excited I wore the three shirt all day until 9pm and still nothing!! I was amazed at how adding a thin breathable shirt like a nike dryfit over my thompson tee completely fixed all my problems. The thing is that your armpits get so sweaty because there is usually always pressure on your shirt in that area. I admit the sweat leaked under the hydroshield just as it did during the interview but working all day and not sitting down stressed out helped alot and I believe another shirt is all you need to stop that under the hydroshield sweat because you dont have a lot of friction on your ribs the whole day. It worked for me and it will work for you too buy one and test it out I’m only 19 years old and I would spend my last $25 dollars on this shirt if I had to. I’ve used it approximately 6 times already and it works every time. I plan on using my first check to buy 5 of them for the work week!Don’t live your life wearing only black shirts like I did, I’m speaking from the heart IT WORKS.-Stevan**** UPDATE****Here is an update over a year after this review! I’ve since acquired 3 more Thompson tees and wear them every day I work. I still work for the same company which supplies us with a blue uniform shirt, a color that I could not ever wear during my adult life before Thompson tee. I also still have my very first Thompson tee and it works the same as it did the first day I wore it. A year ago I told y’all that perphaps wearing a long sleeve shirt would hinder the Thompson tee. I found that to be false as I mainly wear a long sleeve shirt at work and have never seen a drop of sweat on it. I also stated that I stated that wearing a thin shirt over the Thompson would full proof it. That indeed is still true but I’ve found the MOST effective way to use the tee shirt is to avoid wearing tight t shirts over it. I’m not saying you have to wear a oversized shirt, just not a tight one. I found evaporation of sweat gathered by the Thompson tee is most effective outside where air is circulating through wind and the sun is drying out the sweat. But do not worry as I’ve worn it inside all day plenty of times and still no sweat. Keep in mind that the sweat does seep under the padding of the Thompson tee but it will not show on the outer shirt as long as there isn’t continuous pressure in that area for a long time. Just the contact of it against the Thompson tee will not make the outer shirt wet.

REAL & Fully THOUGHT-OUT review…..
If you want a REAL & THOUGHT-OUT review that isn’t just thrown at you by a bitter person read on…..If you actually work at a fast physical pace and don’t want to ever have to deal with underarm sweat even having hyperhidrosis or not, this is the best thing you can buy.I think that’s what a review should reflect: If you are looking for a solution to pit sweating that isn’t from a doctor than this is the best thing any can find.If there is anything anyone dislikes about how well this undershirt does it’s job, I honestly mean no offense, but they need to Seek Medical Attention Immediately for any number of possible medical issues. What I mean by that is if this doesn’t completely hide your exterior sweat issues then I can vouch for the fact that there are not other options besides seeing a doctor. I have hyperhidrosis (already seen a doctor for it) and I ruined my entire wardrobe out of denial and stupidity, plus having to try other cheaper attempts at a medical solution before my insurance will cover Botox.I sweat so severely that I’ve tried absorbing pads meant for under the armpit, I’ve tried other solutions like panty liners and I’ve tried other under shirts with similar padding. In the past I’ve picked shirts meant to show as little sweat as possible so when I’m at work I don’t look disgusting because I have so much sweat under my arms.I can honestly tell you after trying this product on my busiest hottest most active days… It. Didn’t. Show. Anything.I won’t lie, I’m a little upset reading negative reviews because none of them seem to focus on the entire point of the shirt: the fact that it actually works and it does its job as well as promised.Now, if I was being pessimistic I would consider saying something like ‘it makes you sweat more because it’s so thick and makes you hotter’. HOWEVER, all undershirts will have that effect and ‘WHO CARES?’ because no one will SEE the sweat and it WICKS it right up under your armpits. As a matter of fact at the end of my sweatiest day this month my armpits felt drier than the rest of my torso and back because of the absorbent material under the arms.Because of this shirt I have finally felt for the first time in a year-and-a-half that I am not wasting my money rebuilding my whole stock of completely ruined shirts. I actually spent hundreds of dollars on new dress shirts because I finally feel like I won’t ruin them in 2 wears anymore.Sizing was spot-on for standard t-shirt fitting. I’ll read negative reviews and again I’m not out to bash those who haven’t actually thought it through. But, based on a standard shirt bought at a standard store it fits bout spot on and anyone who still thinks it should be skin tight is missing the point of the product (not just to soak up sweat but to help wick up and ‘air out’ your pits). So it’s good size wise as long as you don’t base your sizing on somewhere like Abercrombie & Fitch or some store that uses different sizing as a sales technique because you have the opportunity to try it out in the store so you think everything else is sized wrong. Now I feel I should address reviews who complain about how it didn’t actually evaporate the moisture that it wicked up, yet still wicked it up and still never saw it on the outside. First of all, if you’re sweating A LOT consider the science of fluids. Water isn’t normally capable of evaporating as fast as some ppl sweat. Second, I looked closer at the ones I saw saying this and they were wearing things like a jacket for 2 hours or have on something skin tight and not breathable. No rocket scientist needed here to figure out why the moisture couldn’t evaporate, not the products fault, but perhaps user’s miss interpretation of this product’s technology. Also, for those who want the length of the arms to be shorter cut you’re kinda missing the point of the shirt again and don’t seem to realize how far down your arm the sweat will run or spread to.Something to keep in mind for sizing is that you may want your undershirt to be a size smaller than the shirt you wear on the top layer so it is not as easily seen underneath that shirt or cause extra wrinkles under a dress shirt. Not a bash on the product though.Lastly, as far as it holding up in the washer I haven’t had a single problem with it and I have washed my first two shirts five times with a little bit of detergent, vinegar water, and dish soap each time. Now, it’s just an opinion, but I think that anyone who complains about it getting holes after one wash or not holding up in the washing machine should consider actually using that setting labeled ‘gentle’ or consider getting a new washing machine. Bottom line is it holds up just as well as any shirt I have, and better than ones that cost twice as much.”This is what all undershirts should be like.”

Pricey but definitely worth it
Pricey but definitely worth it. I have tried every trick in the book, from fabrics to products and these are the only ones that stop sweat from showing through my work shirt.

Totally worth it, get 5!
These shirts really work for excessive perspiration – not a pit stain will come through and they dont look any different under a shirt.

Great product, would recommend
I really love those tshirts. I tried them and they actually do work as advertised. Very thin and breathable. There is no single stain from sweat even on the hot days although you can actually feel that you are sweating, but it masks it. I would put more than 5 stars for this functionality is possible.My only concern is that they fit kid of weird on you. Tshirt is the right size but those armpits parts fit really weird and need a lot of improvement. I do think that tshirt of this price could have a bit better fit for the body since they don’t really look well on you if you only wear tshirt

El precio es algo elevado, pero valen realmente la pena. Ya que hace perfecto su función para retener el sudor, la tela es delgada pero muy cómoda, en mi caso por mi peso tuve que pedir en talla grande y me quedaron perfectas ya que no me quedan ajustadas y tampoco muy sueltas y hago uso de un desodorante con piedra de alumbre para evitar malos olores y funciona bien, solo esperando que no afecte a los escudos con el tiempo. Totalmente recomendables y las tallas son de acuerdo a lo que publican. Me esperaré en adquirir más playeras porque tengo que bajar de peso y que ojalá no suban mucho de precio, porque no son económicas.

I bought already 5 of these T-shirts. They get delivered fast and the product is very efficient in retaining sweat and avoiding embarrassing wet marks under the armpit. I personally prefer the crew neck and original fit as the slim fit is made of different material and I found it a little more warm.It take a while to dry after washing due to the pads under the arm but with couple of them in the stock I sort out the issue quickly.Overall I am very satisfied with this product and I also recommend it to friends and family. I will definitely buy it again if needed

Wow. Was skeptical at first considering how many dress shirts I’ve ruined with sweat or how many times I’d have to change halfway through the day. How could a t-shirt fix all of that? Well, this shirt did. I can wear colors again! Who knew! This shirt works better than expected. Much better. I’m a student and wore this shirt under a light grey dress shirt the other day when I had an exam and interview within 20 minutes of each other, so you can imagine how stressed (and therefore sweaty) I was. To my surprise, not a single droplet of sweat showing under my arms. Safe to say I love this new shirt. Not only am I saving dress shirts and am able to wear new colors I’d never dare wear before, my confidence has been boosted considerably since I’m no longer worried about the embarrassing underarm sweat marks.It does fit a tad big. I’m normally an XL, however, a large in this shirt fits me perfectly. Not too tight that its restrictive or uncomfortable, but not too big and baggy that it’s not a good undershirt or that the sleeves bunch or ride up. I’d recommend getting one size smaller than you’d get in a normal t-shirt (you want it to be relatively snug).There are some things to be aware of though. The armpits are padded to absorb sweat, so at first, it may feel like you’ve got a small towel stuffed under your armpits. I got used to that after wearing it only one time – it’s no longer noticeable and feels just like a normal shirt. Since it absorbs the sweat in the armpit pad, I expected that it would also start to smell by the end of the day. Nope! While the pads do absorb sweat (and get wet) there are absolutely no bad orders that get trapped in the material. I would recommend getting more than one or washing after each use, however, since by the end of the day the armpits are very wet on the inside of the shirt and take a while to dry. The last thing you wanna do is put on the shirt again the next day and have wet armpits.Yes, its expensive for a t-shirt, and hopefully in the future, the company is able to reduce their costs as they grow and are able to offer these shirts at a more affordable price, however, I still think it’s 100% worth it. I’m going to be buying 2 or 3 more in the next couple days since I love it so much and it works so well.BUY THIS SHIRT! That’s all I’ve gotta say.
