There’s nothing wrong with wearing Hanes but if you’re looking for something more luxe, then The Row’s got a tissue-thin version you’re guaranteed to love but it will set you back a few hundred. They’re useful all year long.  In winter wear one as a layering piece under something like a flannel shirt which you can remove if it gets too warm.
