100% cotton T-shirts made of heavy weight fabric. The early 90s absolutely spoiled me on this, it used to be much more typical for T-shirts to be cotton and have a good weight to them rather than the tissue paper polyester T-shirts that are so common now.
Which are the places you buy your Tshirts etc. from? I found buying Merch/Band-Shirts (men's) a good source for heavy weight 100% cotton T's and Longsleeves. Hoodies too sometimes if you're lucky, but it can be extremely difficult to find the same quality in Hoodies. I always start sweating like crazy in synthetic kind, feeling so uncomfortable I can't think straight. Same for jogging pants and gym wear.
Honestly I get most of my stuff secondhand, the shirt I’m wearing right now came from a vintage shop. If anyone knows any brands that makes good, heavy tees still I would love to know as well.
