Where do you guys get your shirts. The problem I'm having is that 2 months after buying a cotton shirt they end up getting holes in the chest and shoulder region where the bar constantly touches.
Can you guys recommend any stores that sell durable shirts between 2 and 3xl.

What are you doing to do this? I've used some of the same shirts for years with 0 holes produced.

I've got so many powerlifting shirts that I have to hunt for a non-powerlifting t-shirt to wear on non training days.*Mods/CS will not, nor can they change your username, so don't ask*

I buy mine from mark's work warehouse (not sure if that exists in the usa). They aren't massive holes but they are visible. Idk maybe its the way I wash it or something. I was thinking of getting some durable sythetic shirts but they just don't feel right.
I'm a starving student right now so I can't really afford to buy a new shirt every month.

Well, the obvioud answer is Ed Hardy t-shirts. Buy a new one for each training sessions. I think it was Arnold that says "If you don't look fresh, your gains will never be optimal." Maybe it was Jesus. I don't know.
"Every normal man must be tempted at times to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin to slit throats."

I still wear my Slayer shirt that I bought five years ago, even though it has holes in both armpits and small punctures all over the front. If it's that much of an issue that you have to be the prettiest girl at the ball then go to Wal-Mart and buy a pack of shirts for ten bucks. I heard from that Michael Jordan commercial that Hanes shirts are tagless, so maybe they'll boost your bench by 20 pounds.

Are you guys rubbing yourselves up and down the bar like a cat in heat trying to leave a scent?

Its hard being a fat guy, every time I squat I hear tearing noises in my shorts. Thats why I like lifting in my singlet.
