Whyyy Hanes??? By Crissy Taruc on Jun 11, 2009 - Updated Oct 15, 2011

Hubby's uniform at work is what we called in the Philippines "Gusot Style Barong." It is white in color, long sleeves and he has four pieces of it for the week's work. Barong is somewhat a see through clothing so he is wearing a clean white t-shirt atop of his Barong. I received a call from Fuller Life telling me that they are having Hanes T-shirt on sale. So I went to the store and check what I can buy for hubby. I found this Hanes V-Neck T-shirt perfect for his Barong. It is 100% cotton made, thick in fabric and all sizes are available. I picked the large size for him and bought 4 pieces for him to match the number of his Barong. I got 25% discount (from the sale price) each and I thought I had a best buy. Hanes is a good brand but I am disappointed with this V-Neck T-shirt on the neck part of it. White clothing is really hard to maintain but that's a reality. The neck part of the T-shirt has something like grid lines that easily sagged and that bothers hubby. It loosens its tightness easily and that's not looking good.

I guess I'll still buy Hanes products its just that next time I need to double check the item first if it will conform to our needs and preferences.
