L.L. Bean is a good suggestion. They did carry a t-shirt called "Saturday T.-shirt" which was a shorter t-shirt. Not so short that you're stomach is exposed, but a good length with shorts, jeans, etc. Despite being long wasted, they weren't too short on me. I'm 5'8". They wash well and last forever. I have them in all sorts of colors, so I didn't need to order them last summer. Hopefully, they are still carrying that style. Target stopped carrying the Cherokee t-shirts and replaced them with the Mossimo brand. Don't care for the Mossimo since it has too much elasticity in the fabric makeup. Feels like it has a bit of lycra or something which makes it feel like it is too fitted for me. I like roomier t-shirts, not bigger men's type shirts, just not clingy. The Cherokee was more of a brushed cotton, which washed & dried without a wrinkle. So disappointed that Target stopped carrying the Cherokee tee;( I do like a bit longer t-shirt for the gym, not covering my butt, however, not riding up, exposing my back while exercising. I usually buy separate workout wear for that very reason.

Knits like t-shirts are hard to sew without stablizers. Get yourself some tear away stablizer. It will hold the neckline stable to sew it. It makes it so it won't stretch out of shape. Cut your neckline and iron on a stablizer strip so it's on each side of your stitching line--about an inch strip will do. Take your neck band and sew it together. If you are making it much larger you will have to use new banding material or it won't fit around the opening without stretching it out of shape. If you can't find the right color use a contrasting one. OR-- you can use the existing one like bias tape so it won't matter if it's stretched. Put the seam at center back on the wrong side and pin or baste, then sew on the band. Tear away the stablizer. Turn it to the right side and under 1/4 inch and baste by hand on the right side over the stitching of the side of the band already sewn. Then machine sew it.

If you are looking for just one shirt, I have had good luck with etsy vendors. Both having them print the shirt and me buying a shirt and having them print an iron on design (I guess the design isn't as durable that way, but I can control the size and fit of the shirt better when I buy it myself and the total cost has been cheaper this way.). I just go off of reviews when I buy on etsy.

I love t-shirts. I prefer fitted vnecks, but can appreciate the comfort of a regular oversized tshirt too. I like funny t-shirts or just cutesy ones. I wouldn't wear any with vulgarity, political or religious messages, or anything like that. But I have lots of holiday ones, like my Thanksgiving "strut your stuffing" shirt, my "I got a rock" or "HalloQUEEN" shirts, or my absolutely ENDLESS christmas ones. I recently got several Breast Cancer related shirts,as my sister,who is closest to me in age at 39 years old, recently got diagnosed with it and as she lives far away, asked that me and our other sister and our brothers wear them in support. The ones I got are pink, v-neck, and say "Save the Boo-Bees. It very cute. Sorry its just kinda thrown over my stove. I had just opened the package and took a picture of it to show her it arrived. I get some tshirts as gifts. Mostly from my truck drivers. Here is a couple gardening shirts one of the truckers gave to me. I am forever out in my flower garden at work. And I guess they thought of me when they saw them. They are wrinkled because I let them sit in the dryer so sorry.....but aren't they CUTE!?!?! Otherwise, I wear solid,light colored, fitted t-shirts. Simple and comfy.
