Quick answer

The Varsity Logo T-shirt in Onyx 4X is cut in a relaxed fit, so it gives you room through the body and shoulders without looking boxy. If you normally take a 4X and prefer an easy, casual drape, start with your usual size.

Why the shoulder line matters most in a 4X tee

In extended sizes, the shoulder seam is the first place a tee either feels right or feels restrictive. A relaxed fit like this one is designed to sit slightly away from the body, which gives your arms room to move without pulling the logo print across your chest.

The trade-off is that a relaxed shoulder can feel loose if you are between sizes or prefer a closer cut. If you want a trimmer line, consider sizing down only if you already know you like a fitted tee; otherwise, the intended relaxed look is the safer choice.

How the cotton blend behaves after washing

Cotton-blend tees generally hold their shape well, but heat is the enemy of any cotton garment. Washing cold and drying low or hanging to dry helps preserve both the fit and the Onyx black color.

Because the catalog does not list an exact fiber ratio, treat this tee as you would any soft cotton apparel: turn it inside out before washing to protect the varsity logo print, and avoid ironing directly over the graphic.

Extended size fit and care questions, answered

Does the 4X run true to size?

The tee is designed as a relaxed fit, so it should feel easy rather than snug at your usual 4X. If you are between sizes and want a closer fit, size down; if you want the intended drape, stay with 4X. Use your normal size as the baseline, then adjust only for how relaxed you want the body to feel.

Will the shoulders feel tight?

A relaxed fit is cut to give the shoulder and upper arm room to move. Check that the seam sits near the edge of your shoulder, not pulling inward; if it pulls, the size is too small for the intended fit. Try the tee on with a normal reach-forward motion to confirm the shoulder seam stays put.

How should I wash the Onyx 4X tee?

Turn it inside out, wash cold with like colors, and tumble dry low or hang dry. Avoid bleach and do not iron directly on the logo print. Cold wash and low heat protect both the black color and the relaxed fit.

Can I put it in the dryer?

Low heat is acceptable, but high heat can shrink cotton blends and fade black. If you want to preserve the fit longest, hang it to dry. When in doubt, air-dry to keep the 4X length and width consistent.

What if I need a different size?

The catalog lists this style in 4X only for the Onyx colorway. If 4X is not your size, check the Moonbeam colorway or other Varsity Logo styles for additional size options. Confirm the size label before ordering, since availability varies by colorway.
