Quick answer

For a lightweight, everyday layer that shows off your coffee pride, choose the Fellowversary Graphic Tee. If you want a cozy, stain-hiding sweatshirt for cooler days, the Fellow Logo Black Crew is your pick.

Fabric and weight: tees vs. crewnecks

The biggest difference between these two pieces comes down to fabric and intended season. The Fellowversary Graphic Tee is made from 100% ringspun cotton, giving it a soft, breathable feel that works well on its own or under a jacket. The Fellow Logo Black Crew uses a 50/50 cotton-polyester fleece blend, which adds warmth and a bit of stretch while resisting wrinkles and shrinking.

If you run warm or live in a mild climate, the tee will get more wear. If you tend to feel chilly in the morning, the crewneck's fleece lining will keep you comfortable while you brew.

Stain resistance and care

Coffee spills happen, and the logo crew's jet black color is a practical choice for hiding accidental splashes. The graphic tee's vintage black shade also does a decent job, but the lighter print may show stains more visibly.

Both pieces require similar care: machine wash cold inside out with like colors, and only non-chlorine bleach when needed. The crewneck's poly blend dries faster and resists shrinking better than the all-cotton tee, which may need a bit more attention to avoid distortion.

Style and fit notes

Both items are unisex, so sizing can vary from your usual gender-specific sizes. The tee is a classic crew-neck style with a screen-printed design that celebrates the Stagg EKG kettle. The crewneck features a subtle logo in the corner, making it a more understated option for everyday wear.

If you're between sizes, consider the fabric: cotton tees often shrink slightly, while the poly-cotton fleece crewneck is more forgiving. When in doubt, check the size chart and think about how you like your fit—slimmer or more relaxed.

How to choose: decision rules

  • Choose the Graphic Tee if...: You want a lightweight, breathable layer that's perfect for warmer weather or layering. The 100% cotton fabric is soft and casual, and the unique Stagg EKG artwork is a conversation starter. If you're between sizes, size up for a relaxed fit, as cotton can shrink.
  • Choose the Logo Crew if...: You need a cozy, warm sweatshirt for cooler days. The fleece blend provides insulation, and the dark color hides coffee spills, so you can wear it without worrying about stains. The poly-cotton blend is more shrink-resistant, so you can stick with your usual size.
  • If you want both...: Consider owning both pieces to cover all seasons. The tee works for spring and summer, while the crewneck carries you through fall and winter. They also make great gifts for coffee lovers. Check the size chart for each item separately, as the tee and crewneck may fit differently due to their fabric compositions.
