Valet introduces us to Ribbed Tee, makers of 50/50 poly cotton undershirts that take inspiration from Towncraft 50/50 undershirts.

Ribbed Tee’s founder, Mike Schwartz, recently introduced their Retro Fit V-neck that’s made in the US from a soft, loose knit 50/50 jersey material and feels really broken in out of the packing. The fit’s trimmed without being clingy and features a generously cut collar that’s easy to hide under your button down.

As for the factory, it’s a two-story building that’s “tucked away in an unmarked alley with a large gate.”
