| Best for | Cheap on-trend basics, stocking up on colours, and rotation tees you won't mind replacing. | Soft everyday basics, stocking up cheaply, and convenient one-stop wardrobe restocks. |
| Care | Cold wash and low heat; the light fabric fades and shrinks faster when dried hot. | Cold wash and low heat to slow fading and keep the soft hand. |
H&M's Regular Fit and Target's Goodfellow Every Wear tee are both $10 budget basics, so this is a fit-and-feel call, not a price one. H&M leans trend-driven with multiple cuts and frequent color drops; Goodfellow is garment-washed soft at ~4.5oz with a slightly generous, true-to-size cut aimed at everyday comfort.

Which should you buy?
At the same $10, pick H&M if you want variety, on-trend colors, or a non-regular cut to choose from. Pick the Goodfellow Every Wear if you want a softer, garment-washed feel and a forgiving true-to-size fit for everyday rotation. Both fade and thin within a year, so longevity isn't the tiebreaker here. Decide on whether you value H&M's range or Target's comfort and easy restock.
