plain tee

Unadorned cotton top

A plain tee is a t-shirt without graphics, logos, or text—just solid-colored fabric.

The term distinguishes basic shirts from those with prints or designs: I prefer plain tees over branded stuff.

Plain tees serve as wardrobe staples, layering pieces, or canvases for personal styling.
