The $39 "Absurdly Soft" T-Shirts You Probably Need

You probably have plenty of T-shirts, but do you have "absurdly soft" T-shirts? If not, you're missing out. San Francisco–based brand Marine Layer, known for its comfy tees, has now upgraded them for a new capsule collection with Lost & Found, inspired by '70s surf culture.
"When we started in 2009, I spent over a year developing a perfectly broken-in, absurdly soft fabric to capture that feeling," founder and CEO Mike Natenshon told Who What Wear. "It's a custom blend of Supima cotton and MicroModal that didn't really exist at the time. I also played with in-between sizing to give people more options for finding the perfect fit. … The care and attention to detail that we put into our tees make them something that you'll want to wear every day (and not look like everyone else)."
