No twisting after washing
Every other long-sleeve I own spirals at the sides eventually. This one cannot, because there is no seam to spiral.

Tubular jersey is knitted as a continuous cylinder on a circular machine and cut to length, which means the body has no side seams — nothing to twist, and nothing to press against the ribs. It also means one machine width equals one garment width, so a tubular garment cannot be graded freely; each size needs its own machine set-up, which is why almost nobody does it any more. The cotton is a long-staple combed yarn at 280g, heavy enough to hang straight from the shoulder rather than clinging.

280g is substantial. I would call it a light sweater rather than a t-shirt.
