 Cool Tees Rule Forever!

   By wainroy

We all love our dear ol' tees. But we've never really thought enough about how the T-shirt has outlived time in always remaining fashionable. This article provides a mini-history of the T and a reflection on its rule.

The T-shirt trend never fades; it only gets newer and better with passing generations. The clothing for all seasons and all reasons, T-shirts are always the top-notch choice of apparel designers and buyers across all nations today. An interesting survey revealed that adults, especially Americans, wear tees about five times in seven days. And with the fashion biggies like Polo Ralph Lauren or Abercrombie and Fitch bringing out cool to cooler tee designs every year, it is small wonder that the world is in love with tees.

Although T-shirts have been a phenomena worldwide mostly in this century, their existence can be traced back to the 1800s. For those who don't know, T-shirts first came out as a kind of underwear known for their softness. Tees soon won European admiration before moving to conquer the Americans during World War I. US military men took to tees in no time. By the next World War, T-shirts had carved a unique niche into the clothing business, catering to huge demands.

Powerhouse production of the best-styled tees began thereafter. From Marlon Brando to everyday people, T-shirts enamored everyone. Every clothing manufacturer nursed their tee range in an attempt to make it more attractive and 'kewl' in terms of designs, cuts, and materials. Rest assured, by then the world knew that T-shirts were here to stay.

Although statistics suggest that men own more tees than women, T-shirts have become quite a generic garment today. The most popular tees are those with logos on them. Graphic tees are a close second in people's choice, with school/company name-marked T-shirts toeing in as third. Youngsters love to flaunt their heroes on tees, while some like only brightly-colored T-shirts with smart designs on them. Others like to wear it in their original form - plain white and inconspicuous. Many others proclaim their religious beliefs on their Christian T-shirts, adorned with Christian images/messages.

With the Internet bringing everything into easy reach, tee fans can never get enough. Now they can even personalize their tees and order them online. They may have their own face, their pet's photo, their sketches, etc. printed on their tees. Or they can purchase T-shirts graced with their own quotes or humorous anecdotes.
