Product Insights
Le 31's V-Neck T-Shirt in standard fit offers a mid-range cut between Hanes Beefy-T and Uniqlo U, made from organic cotton verified by Good On You with supply chain commitment, at $19.99 CAD — a price typical for conventional cotton. The main tradeoff is that to limit shrinkage to 2-3% (mostly after the first wash), cold water and air drying are required, preserving softness.

Deep Research
How Le 31 compares to other Simons brands
- Since nearly two-thirds of Simons' clothing is designed and developed in-house, Le 31 isn't a generic unbranded tee but part of a deliberate private-label strategy that gives the retailer control over quality and pricing—the reason a 100% organic cotton V-neck can hit a $19.99 CAD price point without sacrificing material integrity.
- At $19.99 CAD, this tee delivers 100% organic cotton jersey—a fabric typically associated with higher price tiers—which is achievable because Simons' direct-to-consumer private-label model strips out wholesale markups; the result is an organic staple at a price comparable to conventional basics from competing retailers.
Behind the organic cotton label
- Beyond this tee, Simons has integrated organic cotton into other categories — a 2024 collection blended Circulose viscose with virgin organic cotton, confirming the brand maintains a supply chain for organic fiber.
- Sustainability directory Good On You identifies Simons as using lower-impact materials including organic cotton, lending third-party backing to the tee's 100% organic content claim.
How to care for 100% organic cotton jerseys
- High-heat tumble drying is the number one cause of extreme shrinkage in organic cotton; laying the tee flat to dry or using a low-heat setting avoids the intense fiber contraction that can make an air-dried shirt feel a full size larger than one that has been machine-dried.
- Washing in cold water limits organic cotton jersey shrinkage to approximately 2–3%, whereas hot water can drive shrinkage up to 8–10%, making the wash temperature the single most impactful variable for maintaining the tee's original chest and length dimensions.
- Using a gentle wash cycle and a mild detergent reduces mechanical stress and fiber-weakening chemical exposure, which helps the organic cotton jersey retain its original softness and structural integrity over repeated washes.
- The vast majority of organic cotton jersey shrinkage occurs during the very first wash as stretched fibers relax back to their natural state; after that initial cycle, the fabric stabilizes and subsequent cold-water washes cause only negligible additional change, so a single careful first wash largely determines the shirt's long-term fit.

Q&A
2 answered- How does the standard fit of this t-shirt compare to other common brands like Uniqlo or Hanes?
- The Le 31 standard fit is a straight cut with slightly fitted sleeves, comparable to a classic regular fit like the Hanes Beefy-T [1], and less boxy than Uniqlo U's fit [1].
- How does the organic cotton jersey feel against the skin compared to regular cotton?
- This shirt is made from ultra comfortable 100% organic cotton jersey, which is typically softer and more breathable than conventional cotton due to less chemical processing. The fabric weight is 160 grams per square meter [1], giving it a medium-weight, smooth feel.
