Cropped T Shirts That Don't Need Tailoring

The cropped fit has been having a moment in menswear for long enough now that calling it a trend feels slightly embarrassing. It's just a silhouette that works, particularly if you're wearing anything with a higher rise or want your proportions to do something more considered than a boxy tee tucked in badly ever managed. The problem is that most cropped tees require a tailor's intervention to sit right, and most men are not going to that trouble for a t-shirt. These ones are cut to land in the right place out of the box. We've been looking specifically at hem lengths that work with relaxed trousers and shorts without veering into anything costume-like, and at fabrics that hold their shape rather than curling at the hem after two washes. The fit through the shoulder matters as much as the length. Get that wrong and the whole thing collapses. These get it right.
