Men's Short Sleeve T-Shirts & Vests

Short sleeve T-shirts and vests are the default layer in most men's wardrobes — worn alone through summer, underneath everything else the rest of the year. The range covers crew necks and V-necks, plain basics in black, white, grey and navy alongside graphic prints, striped and logo styles, plus sleeveless vests and gym tops for training and warmer days.

Sleeve length is worth a thought, even on a short sleeve. A standard cut finishes around mid-bicep, which suits most builds. Shorter sleeves sit higher on the arm and read more fitted; longer ones reach towards the elbow and work better on a relaxed or oversized cut. It's a small difference that changes how a tee looks more than the body fit does.

Fabric weight decides the rest. Lightweight cotton jersey drapes closer and layers neatly under a shirt or jacket; heavier cotton holds its shape and stands up worn alone. Continental brands often run shorter in the body than UK equivalents, so check the measurements if you're between sizes. Wear with jeans, joggers or shorts. Browse all men's T-shirts and vests.
