Men’s T-Shirt & Shorts Sets – Lightweight, Breathable, Casual & Active

Fit Guide – Choose the Right T-Shirt & Shorts Combo

Fit isn’t just about size—it’s about how your set moves, drapes, and fits your lifestyle. Whether you're lounging or lifting, our men’s t-shirt and shorts sets are designed with practical comfort and clean style in mind. Choose from three main fit types across our collection:

📏 Regular Fit – Everyday Simplicity

Offered in sets like the Vibrant Vibes Set, our regular fit offers a balanced silhouette—not too tight, not too loose. The tees offer natural drape, and the sweatshorts provide room to move with an adjustable waistband. Ideal for daily wear, quick errands, or relaxed weekends.

🛋 Relaxed Fit – Casual Comfort

If you prefer extra room to breathe, the Raw Edge Set delivers with a looser tee and wide-cut French terry shorts. Designed for lounging, creative layering, or laid-back afternoons, this fit feels broken-in from the first wear.

💪 Athletic Fit – Tailored for Movement

Our Athletic Set features an athletic cut that hugs in the right places without restricting motion. The t-shirt follows your frame, and the shorts offer stretch and breathability—great for workouts, warmups, or active days outdoors.

All sets run true to size with pre-shrunk fabric, so you get consistent comfort every time. Use our size guide to match your preferred fit with your everyday activities.

Fabric Breakdown – Cotton, Poly & Performance Blends Explained

Not all fabrics are created equal—especially when it comes to all-day comfort, layering, and breathability. Our men’s t-shirt and shorts sets feature carefully selected blends for every lifestyle, from pure cotton basics to high-performance materials. Here’s what sets them apart:

🌿 100% Cotton – Natural, Soft & Skin-Friendly

Found in our Essential Set and Vibrant Vibes Set, these t-shirts are crafted from breathable, single jersey cotton. Lightweight and ultra-soft, they regulate temperature and are gentle on sensitive skin. Ideal for everyday layering or solo summer wear.

🌀 Cotton-Poly Blends – Performance Meets Comfort

In active styles like our Tech Set, cotton-poly blends offer the best of both worlds. Cotton provides breathability and softness, while polyester adds stretch, wrinkle-resistance, and moisture-wicking power—great for movement, humidity, or travel.

💪 Interlock & French Terry – Structured & Premium Feel

The Athletic Set and Raw Edge Set use heavyweight interlock and French terry fabrics with added elastane for stretch. These are ideal for streetwear looks, gym wear, or cool-weather layering, offering warmth without bulk.

🏋️ Moisture-Wicking Sleeveless Sets

For training or hot days, the Sleeveless Hoodie Set delivers with breathable, quick-dry interlock fabric. Its cotton-rich blend keeps it soft while elastane ensures it moves with you. Great for workouts, outdoor errands, or layering under jackets.

Each fabric is chosen for a reason—whether it’s cooling comfort, athletic stretch, or vintage texture. Use this guide to pick the right fabric for your day-to-day vibe, climate, or training goals.

Weight & Wearability – From Lightweight Cotton to Heavyweight Sets

Fabric weight isn’t just a number—it directly impacts how your t-shirt & shorts set feels, breathes, and performs. From feather-light cotton to structured heavyweight interlock, we’ve got styles to match every season, activity, and comfort preference.

🪶 Lightweight (4 oz) – Breezy & Summer-Ready

Our Vibrant Vibes and Essential Set feature 4 oz single jersey cotton tees—ultra-light, breathable, and ideal for warm climates or layering under hoodies. Sweatshorts in these sets are 9 oz fleece: soft and balanced for casual wear.

👕 Midweight (9–11 oz) – Everyday Strength

Looking for more structure? Our Raw Edge Set (11 oz French Terry) offers a vintage vibe with added heft. It’s cozy enough for cooler days, yet breathable for transitional weather. Great for lounging, layering, or casual outings with style.

🏋️ Heavyweight (12–14 oz) – Durable & Performance-Driven

When you need real weight and structure, go for the Athletic Set or Sleeveless Hoodie Set. With 12–14 oz heavyweight interlock and 4-way stretch, they’re perfect for athletes, activewear lovers, and anyone who wants a bold silhouette with real substance.

Weight impacts warmth, drape, and wearability. Light sets are perfect for summer and layering. Heavier sets offer year-round structure and sweat-wicking performance—ideal for the gym or the street.

Tech & Training Ready: Moisture-Wicking Active Sets

Not all matching sets are made for movement—but these are. Our men’s performance t-shirt & shorts sets combine stretch, breathability, and moisture control to keep up with every rep, run, and routine. Designed for training and recovery alike, these activewear combos go wherever your energy takes you.

🏃 Lightweight & Quick-Drying for Workouts

Made with polyester or poly-cotton blends, our performance tees are naturally quick-drying, wrinkle-resistant, and lightweight—so you can move comfortably without cling or sweat buildup. These fabrics stay cool even when the pace heats up.

💪 Built-In Flex for Full-Range Motion

Our Athletic Shorts Set and Tech T-Shirt & Shorts Set use blends that include elastane or technical knits. That means you get 4-way stretch for mobility in every direction—ideal for lifting, stretching, or sprinting.

🎒 Gym-Ready Features You’ll Actually Use

With adjustable waistbands, zippered pockets, and breathable cuts, these sets are built for real-world activewear. Store your keys, phone, or headphones securely while you focus on your workout. And the athletic cut stays sharp, even when the sweat starts.

When your training gear moves like this, you won’t want to wear anything else. These sets keep you cool, dry, and on the move—from warmups to cooldowns and everything in between.

Unique Finishes: Vintage Washes & Bold Garment Dyes

If you’re looking for matching sets with texture, depth, and a worn-in vibe, our garment-dyed and vintage-washed t-shirt & shorts sets bring effortless personality to everyday wear. These aren’t just basic sets—they’re styled for visual appeal and elevated comfort.

🎨 Garment-Dyed for Deep, Lived-In Color

Instead of dyeing fabric rolls, our Premium Raw Edge Set and Sleeveless Hoodie Set are dyed after construction. This gives each piece rich, vintage tones and natural color variation that adds depth and uniqueness to your look.

👕 Vintage-Washed Softness from Day One

Washed-down finishes offer that “already worn, already loved” softness—no break-in needed. These styles feel ultra-soft with a slightly faded aesthetic, making them ideal for laid-back days and casual layering.

✂️ Raw Edge Styling for Streetwear Flair

Designs like the Cropped T-Shirt & Shorts Set feature raw hems on both the tee and shorts, offering a relaxed silhouette with a creative, undone edge. Perfect for creators, stylists, or anyone wanting a unique look without loud graphics.

These sets don’t just look vintage—they feel authentically worn-in and styled for a lived-in aesthetic that keeps getting better with time.

Everyday Versatility: Wear It Anywhere, Anytime

Comfort shouldn’t mean compromise. Our men’s t-shirt and shorts sets are built to flex between home, errands, and social settings—giving you easy outfits that look put-together without the effort.

🛋 Lounging at Home? Done.

🛍️ Stepping Out? Still Styled.

The Vibrant Vibes Set gives you bold color options and a regular fit that works with sneakers, slides, or low-tops. Whether it’s groceries, brunch, or a walk around the block—just throw it on and go.

🔁 From Weekday to Weekend, No Switch Needed

Each matching set is designed to move seamlessly through your day. Breathable fabrics, clean silhouettes, and consistent sizing mean fewer wardrobe changes—and more time doing what matters.

Versatility is in the details: comfortable waists, neutral and bold tones, and premium construction that lets you style up or down without needing a closet change.

Functional Features: Drawstrings, Pockets & Raw Edges

Sometimes it’s the details that make all the difference. Our men’s t-shirt and shorts sets are built with functional features that improve comfort, movement, and everyday wearability—without compromising on clean design.

🪢 Adjustable Waistbands for a Perfect Fit

Every set includes drawstring shorts with elasticized waistbands—giving you a secure yet flexible fit. Whether you're lounging or on the go, the waistband adjusts to your body, not the other way around.

👖 Deep Side Pockets & Secure Storage

Function meets utility with deep side pockets across all sets. Need more security? The Performance Set includes zippered pockets to keep your essentials locked in while you're on the move.

✂️ Raw Edge Hems & Distinct Streetwear Touches

Our Cropped Set features a raw-edge finish on both the t-shirt and shorts for a laid-back, vintage-inspired look. This detail adds texture and flair while keeping the fit clean and breathable.

Each design choice—from waistband flexibility to pocket depth—is made to support real-life movement. Style doesn’t have to sacrifice function—and with these sets, it doesn’t.

🧼 Washing Guide: Maintain Fit, Color & Softness

With the right care, your men’s t-shirt and shorts sets will stay soft, vibrant, and ready for whatever the day brings. Whether it's cotton, French terry, or performance blends—these simple care tips help your gear last longer and feel better.

🧺 Machine Wash Cold, Always

Cold water protects fabric fibers, colors, and printability. It prevents shrinkage, preserves garment-dyed finishes, and keeps your tees and shorts fitting true after every wash.

🔁 Turn Inside Out Before Washing

This small step protects the outer surface, especially for vintage-washed or printed sets. It minimizes friction and fading while keeping the inner fabric as soft as day one.

💨 Tumble Dry Low or Hang Dry

High heat can stiffen cotton and weaken elastane. To maintain softness and stretch, tumble dry low or hang your sets to air dry. It’s better for longevity—and for the planet.

🚫 Avoid Bleach & Harsh Detergents

Stick to mild, color-safe detergents. Harsh chemicals break down fibers and dull colors. Garment-dyed and pigment-washed sets especially need gentle care to maintain their unique finish.

Wash smart and wear longer—because good clothes deserve good care.

Responsible Fabric, Built for Repeat Wear

At Upstanding Apparel, we believe long-lasting clothes are better for your wardrobe and the planet. Our men’s t-shirt & shorts sets are made to be worn, washed, and re-worn—without falling apart or fading out. Here's how we make sustainable style happen.

🍃 Durable Construction = Less Waste

Our sets are built to last through repeated washes, with strong seams, quality cotton, and reinforced details. That means fewer replacements, lower consumption, and less textile waste over time.

🌱 Cotton First, With Low-Impact Alternatives

We prioritize natural cotton in most styles—soft, breathable, and biodegradable. When we use polyester blends for performance or stretch, it’s to add function without excess bulk or waste.

📦 Smarter Packaging & Supply Chain

Our packaging is kept minimal and recyclable, reducing unnecessary waste. We also work with partners who prioritize ethical sourcing and efficient production to reduce environmental impact at every stage.

🔁 Wash-Friendly = Longer Life

All sets are made to resist shrinkage, color fading, and pilling—so you get more wears per wash. Proper care keeps them rotation-ready, reducing the need for constant replacements.

Better design. Smarter care. Longer wear. That’s sustainable style you can count on.

One Set, Many Lifestyles: Who Our Matching Sets Serve

Not all men dress the same—and that’s the point. Our matching t-shirt and shorts sets are built to fit into different lifestyles, routines, and personal styles. Whether you're hitting the gym, working from home, or building a brand, we’ve got a set that fits.

🏋️ For the Athlete or Gym-Goer
