I'd say this is something you local guys know how to decide best. If you want some input: T-Shirts are ubiquitous, but they are also most useful. Long-sleeves and hoodies aren't going to be worn much in summer or even inside, around the year. But they could be a refreshing change from the norm. In general though I'd probably like to suggest to opt for less of higher quality than more of lesser quality, i.e. a better t-shirt over a lower-quality hoodie. > There are different Material options: > a) Hemp and Organic Cotton - super soft and comfortable > b) Plastic Bottles and Cotton - Yep, you'd be surprised at how soft Plastic > Bottles can be!

If you care about my opinion: Fairtrade organic all the way, so the first two sound good. The only question I have on the recycled plastic is how breathable the resulting fabric is. Cotton and hemp are great (but they soak up moisture/sweat too), while nylon shirts are really not too great in terms of breathability and daily use (they are good for sports though). So where do the plastic bottles slot in in that spectrum?
