The verdict
Fit
The Pace tee balances contemporary tailoring with athletic functionality—likely fitted through the shoulders with room for movement in the body. Fit true; expect a versatile silhouette.
Quality
At 88 USD, quality should be solid across mesh construction, stitching, and hardware. 3sixteen's denim pedigree suggests meticulous attention to the details that make gear durable.
Is the price fair?
88 USD is fair value for a well-made technical tee. The purple colorway is distinctive; price is justified if you wear it regularly enough to justify the investment.
Best for
Active shoppers building a rotation of training wear who want contemporary design and appreciate heritage-brand attention to detail even in performance pieces.
Care
Purple technical wear can bleed; wash separately the first time in cool water, then with similarly-colored items. Air-dry to preserve color and elastic integrity.
What owners report about 3sixteen t-shirts
Owners and reviewers treat 3sixteen's tees as dense, heavy shirts built more like the brand's denim than a throwaway basic — Heddels rated the fabric heavy and called the construction clean, filing it as a shirt for years of continuous wear rather than an exciting one. The recurring ownership story is shrinkage: one forum owner reported a tee losing almost three inches of length and two of width after a cold wash and hang dry, far beyond what the brand's size guidance stated, and got little help from customer service. The fit runs slim, and reviewers note small nitpicks like the collar tag crinkling after a wash and overlocked side seams on the cut-and-sewn version.
- Strengths
- Reviewers consistently rate the heavyweight fabric and construction quality as the draw — a plain, hard-wearing shirt expected to last a couple of years of continuous use.
- Watch out for
- First-wash shrinkage is the recurring complaint — owners report losing more length and width than the brand's own guidance states, and customer service reportedly would not exchange a shrunken shirt.
- Sizing
- The cut is slim to begin with and owners report substantial first-wash shrinkage, so size up if between sizes and wash cold and hang dry.
