Strawberry Bandit Heavyweight Essential Tee – True Black
A 200 GSM, 100% cotton unisex tee built for daily wear and long-term shape retention. Cut with a clean modern fit and a fiery red raised chest and back-of-neck print, it layers seamlessly under our 400 GSM French Terry Crewneck or wears confidently on its own.
Why 200 GSM Changes Everything
Most mall-brand basics run at 160–180 GSM — thin enough to show wear within months. At 200 GSM, the Strawberry Bandit Heavyweight Tee holds its structure through repeated washing while remaining soft against the skin. Tradeoff to know: the added fabric weight means it runs slightly warmer than lighter tees, making it ideal for layering in cooler months or air-conditioned environments.

- It's designed specifically for that purpose — a 200 GSM true-black cotton tee that resists fading and holds structure through daily use.
- Who is this tee made for?
- The unisex cut fits adults and older youth. Parents often buy matching tees alongside Strawberry Bandit kids' apparel for a coordinated family wardrobe.
