Neckline Quality

The neckline is where cheap tees fail first. In QC photos, examine the ribbing width where the collar meets the body. Quality tees have a 1.5-2cm ribbed band that lies flat. Cheap versions show a narrow, wavy edge that will bacon-neck after a few washes. The ribbing should also look dense, not stretched or gappy.

Print and Graphic Checks

For printed tees, QC photos should show the graphic at multiple angles. Check for these issues:

• Print placement is centered and level
• Colors match the reference without obvious tint shifts
• No cracking or peeling at graphic edges
• Texture is smooth, not bubbled or rough
• Back print aligns with front placement

Sleeve and Body Proportions

Sleeve length relative to body length is a subtle but important fit indicator. Standard streetwear tees in 2026 run with sleeves that hit mid-bicep and a body that ends mid-fly. If sleeves look cap-length or body looks elongated, the cut may be off. Spreadsheet Notes sometimes mention "cropped" or "elongated" — read carefully.

Fabric Transparency

Hold warehouse photos up to your screen brightness max. If you can see light through the fabric in the photo, the tee will likely be see-through in daylight. This is common with sub-180gsm cotton.
