In general, men’s fashion isn’t spoken about much.
Magazines like Vogue and Fashion Weekly aim themselves at women’s runway items, meaning that if you are a guy who wants to be on trend, it can be a bit tougher to get it right!
If you are looking for the upcoming popular items in 2024 to buy, then look no further than the humble t-shirt. As is the way with fashion, no simple tee will do, and here, you will see the different types that can get you on trend, as well as turn heads.
Graphic T-Shirts
It is a t-shirt type that never goes out of style.
Graphic t-shirts or graphic tees are always on trend and, in 2024, it seems that t-shirts that have a more abstract theme are showcasing themselves on the runways. So, if you have any t-shirts with odd wording or designs on them in the back of your wardrobe, now is the time to dig them out!
Knitted
Looking at this subheading, you may be puzzled as to how a knitted t-shirt is different from a jumper.
Good question! The difference is the material. T-shirts tend to be made from cotton, bamboo, and so on, whereas knitted t-shirts are made from very finely woven wool. Usually, it is merino wool. Much like the heavy T-shirts, which will be discussed later, this means you won’t have to wear multiple layers on cold winter days. They also look sharp, so you can be sure to look your best when wearing them.
Heavyweight T-Shirts
Both men’s and women’s fashion has gone far beyond being fast, with an emphasis on sustainability and longevity. So, it makes sense that many t-shirts that are coming out this year for men are designed to be well made, as well as long-lasting. This has led to a rise in t-shirts being made from thick cotton, which means that come winter, you won’t have to pile on hoodies or jumpers. These thick T-shirts will keep you warm and last longer at the same time, saving you money and keeping you bang on trend!
Sustainable
Over the last 5 years, more and more companies have turned their heads towards sustainability. This is across everything from plastic water bottles, all the way to t-shirts.
This does not mean that these shirts are bland or boring to look at. Quite the contrary. It is also great to see men’s fashion adopting this approach. After all, as many as 2 billion t-shirts are sold every year, and even if they are all made from cotton, that’s still a lot of water as well as a huge environmental footprint. So, if you want to get your hands on a t-shirt that won’t harm the planet or your bank account, 2024 is the year for you! Even high fashion labels like Vogue are pushing sustainable t-shirts for men this year!
Performance T-Shirts
Remember in times gone by when performance clothing was only for people who ran marathons?
Luckily, over the last ten years, times have changed, and now, men’s t-shirts that are designed around performance and ventilation are in style. This means that if you are a chap who is often running late, you can run to catch the bus/train or whatever without breaking into a noticeable sweat. Of course, these T-shirts don’t look boring. Designers have created an array of different styles and fabric cuts so that these tees are as much about the look as they are about the performance they give you.
