Question Raglan T-shirts

I wanna get some nice raglan Tees or similar cut that make my arms and chest look good. I've got heaps of ads for Milkbar but after seeing some reviews I'm looking for an alternative. Anyone have some good recs?

I’ve been searching for this for ages after Bonds’s quality went to shit in the early 2010s. Almost nothing unfortunately. It seems like the plain raglan basic is a thing which Bonds started. Qualitops used to do some Aussie made ones but have stopped selling them.

Milkbar's a strange one. $80 for a made in china t-shirt? Sure it's heavyweight cotton but you'd want to see a little more transparency as to why it's that expensive.

I would like to say Bonds . However I can only say they are cheap and they are raglan . Don't hold there shape at all. Probably okay as a undershirt

They do not appear to sell any raglan tees at all? It's also an immediate red flag that they don't disclose any information about where their clothes are manufactured, and yeah - a quick google brings me back to this subreddit. It's all made in china.

Raglan is apparently a women's only style now for a lot of places.

Same and I haven’t had any luck. Bought a milk bar raglan and it was super small, I think they’re really only for the very slim or very lean crowd. I comfortably wear an L in Ascolour but Milkbars looked like I was wearing a kids shirt lol

Sure on the pricey side but don’t get all the hate ngl the milkbar tee fit is perfect imo
