Because there are so many ways that you can go wrong, shopping for good tee-shirts can be just as hard as it can be boring. While some are too thin and border on being see-through, others seem designed to make you crazy when it comes to the length of the arms or the length of the entire tee. I can’t even begin to tell you how many times a tee shirt that seemed like a good idea in theory has nearly driven me crazy because of disappearing length acts after a machine wash or sleeves made so tiny they may as well be called side straps.

This layered kangaroo pocket tee can solve a few of those common tee shirt issues. The elbow length sleeve with button and strap accouterments means added length without always having to push up long sleeves and in the event that it gets a little chilly outside, the kangaroo pocket can keep your hands warm without the added bulk you a hoodie. The banded hem gives added length, extending the shirt to a hip covering 31″ long, and the scoop neck design features an inset to add extra coverage without the extra material of a camisole.

While I am skeptical about insets in general and concerned over what constant tugging on the kangaroo pocket could do to the shape of the shirt, I am generally pleased with what this shirt has to offer. It comes in rose or heather gray with a white inset, or black with a gray inset and can be purchased for 19.99.
