We added this tee to the same six-item basket we run through every agent workflow, ordered it in Cherry Blossom 29 black, size L, and treated it like any other parcel on the bench: tape measure on the left, scale on the right, photo log running. The listing is a single item ID (7718733486) with a very long color dropdown, priced at $6.87 against a $7.28 comparison price. What follows is the product itself — construction, print, measurements and wear — rather than a repeat of the workflow timings, which live on our agent comparison pages.
What arrived, and what the parcel weighed
The tee came folded inside a single poly mailer, no cardboard, no tissue, no hangtag and, notably, no care label printed into the neck seam beyond the brand and size marks. It sat in consolidation for four days alongside the rest of the basket before shipping, so it arrived flat and lightly creased across the chest print. We hung it for 24 hours before measuring; the creases dropped out and the print showed no marking from the fold.
The raw listing carries a weight field of 0.00 kg, which is useless for anyone budgeting shipping. On the bench the size L tee alone came to 213 g, and the mailer with the tee inside weighed 0.29 kg. That is the number to use when you are estimating a consolidated parcel, not the zero in the item data.
The measurement bench: our numbers beside the listing
The listing states a loose fit and a 1–3 cm tolerance but does not publish a measurement chart per colorway. That is the single biggest gap in this product page, so we taped the tee flat and recorded our own set. All figures are from one size L sample in one colorway; treat them as a reference point, not a promise for every option in the dropdown.
| Check | Listing | Our size L sample |
|---|---|---|
| Flat chest, pit to pit | Not stated | 56 cm |
| Body length, neck point to hem | Not stated | 71 cm |
| Raglan sleeve, collar edge to cuff | Not stated | 36 cm |
| Fabric weight | 230 gsm | 219 gsm (10 × 10 cm swatch) |
| Packed weight | 0.00 kg | 0.29 kg with mailer |
| Stated tolerance | 1–3 cm | Consistent with what we measured |
The chest figure is the awkward one on a raglan tee, because there is no shoulder seam to anchor a measurement. We took pit to pit laid flat, then re-took it 2 cm below the armhole to check for a curved side seam, and got 55.5 cm the second time. If you are comparing against a tee you already own, measure yours the same way or the numbers will not line up.
Fabric: what double-yarn cotton at 230 gsm actually felt like
Double-yarn cotton is a knitting description, not a quality grade — two yarns plied before knitting, which usually means a smoother, denser hand than a single-yarn jersey at the same weight. Our swatch came in at 219 gsm against the stated 230 gsm, within the range we would expect from a single-sample cut and a finished-garment measurement, so we have no reason to dispute the claim.
In the hand it reads as a mid-weight tee: opaque under a daylight lamp on the white-base options we inspected in the QC set, with enough body to hold a loose silhouette without collapsing at the hem. It is not a heavyweight streetwear blank, and buyers who expect a stiff, structured tee from a 230 gsm number should recalibrate — this is soft, slightly dry to the touch and drapes rather than stands.
Print and the raglan seam
The graphic is a screen print with a matte finish rather than a glossy plastisol sheen. Under raking light the ink sits in the knit rather than on top of it, with a visible but even edge and no haloing. The important check on a raglan tee is where the print crosses the diagonal seam from collar to underarm: on our sample the ink ran over the seam without a gap or a doubled edge, and the seam itself was flat with no puckering on either side.
We compared the black-base sample against the white-base photos in the same QC set and saw what we would expect: the print reads crisper on black, and the white base shows slightly more texture through the ink. Neither is a defect, but if you are choosing between two colorways from thumbnails alone, the white-base options will look different in person than on a bright screen.
Sizing, colorways and the honest caveat
The dropdown is enormous — the cherry blossom series alone runs roughly 01 through 29, in black, white, grey and burgundy variants, across S to XXL. That is a lot of options resting on a single photograph set, and the reported fit history for this brand is genuinely mixed: some buyers size up at least one, others find the tees true to size or slightly generous, and the same label has been reported to fit differently between drops. Our size L measured like a relaxed large, not an oversized one.
Practical conclusion: pick the colorway, then ask for the measurement chart for that specific option before you pay. A 1–3 cm tolerance is stated, and on a loose-fit tee that is the difference between relaxed and sloppy at the shoulder.
Care, wear and the print's weak point
We cold-washed the tee on a delicate cycle inside out and air-dried it flat, twice, and the print showed no cracking or lifting. Owners of this brand's tees are consistent on one point, though: heat is what kills the graphic, and a tumble dryer will crack and peel it quickly. The absence of a care label makes that advice more important, not less, because nothing on the garment warns you. Treat it as hand-wash or cold delicate, hang dry, and iron inside out if you must.
Ten wears in, the fabric has softened slightly and picked up no pilling at the underarm or hem. The neckline has held its shape through two washes, which is the usual failure point on a tee at this price. The caveat we cannot resolve from one sample is long-term print durability: buyer reports describe these graphics as the first thing to go, and two washes is not enough evidence to overrule that.
Who this suits, and the workflow note
The value case here is straightforward: $6.87 buys a mid-weight, loose-fit raglan tee with a clean print and a silhouette that layers well under an open jacket. What it does not buy is certainty. The listing gives you no per-colorway measurements, no care instructions and no packed weight, so the burden of verification sits with you — and that is exactly the part of the order an agent's QC step is for. We asked for a tape-measure photo against the chest and a close-up of the print at the raglan seam on both services in our basket; those two images are what turned an unverifiable $6.87 into a decision.
Where this tee fell short of a higher score is not the garment in our hands but the information around it: the sizing history, the missing care label and the print's known sensitivity to heat. Order it in a colorway you have seen photographed, in a size you have checked, and it earns its price. Order it blind from a thumbnail and the 1–3 cm tolerance will decide for you.
