We made one of the world’s first T-shirts and have been perfecting it for over 100 years. Our Classic T-shirt is handmade in the Sunspel factory in Long Eaton, England, using the finest, extra-long staple Supima cotton that can be traced to its Californian farm of origin.
The fabric - a unique Sunspel development - is lightweight, durable and exceptionally smooth against the skin. With a classic fit, it is essential to every wardrobe. We believe it is the perfect T-shirt.

The History of the Classic T-Shirt

Sunspel played a pivotal role in the birth of this universal wardrobe staple; making what was previously considered a simple undergarment out of the finest cotton we created the world’s first luxury T-shirt. Made in England since 1908 using long-staple cotton for unparalleled softness, lightness and comfort, our crew neck T-shirt has a classic fit and only the most essential of details, making it the perfect day-to-day wardrobe foundation.
