Turns out the Germans make one of the best fitted tees we've ever seen. Who knew?
The olive drab Bundeswehr tee looks absolutely fantastic. Order your normal t-shirt size for a just-close-enough, no-nonsense baselayer or go up a size for a more relaxed t-shirt fit.
Whichever way you go, the Bundeswehr is also kind enough to include a little extra length allowing you to neatly tuck in your tee and avoid indecent exposure when crouching or working on all fours.
Also it's six friggen bucks.

Pretty Nice
The shirts have a good, snug fit. The only issue is that some of the shirts are worn out around the neck and on one of the shirts had a quick stitch under one of the arms.

Bundeswehr Olive drab T- Shirts
I'm updating the review I left 5 months ago as I now have 12 of these T's. Yes, they are that good so I bought more. However one thing folks should be aware of is that the sizing can vary considerably between manufacturers. My size is XL which in the German sizing system seems to be 7/44. However I also have some which claimed to be XL which were 6/42 and 8/46. The size can vary considerably, depending on manufacturer even when they are supposedly the same size. In some cases in terms of width more so than length. I have examples from Capilano, Unger, Workstation, GCT, Baumhuter and fecsa. Most are 7/44, two are 8/46 and three are 6/42. Of course some of them may have shrunk in the wash, depending on who washed them and how. Point is that if you are in doubt as to your size I'd suggest getting one size larger unless you want a really tight/snug fit. This is not a criticism as such as Mil-surp items are going to have some variability in them depending on age, manufacturer, use and care etc. Just a suggestion on what to consider based on my use of them. I have a large enough sample now that I will state they are mostly true to size but some variability is possible. They are a still great product and highly recommended. - Peter.
