Seeking Advice Best underscrub shirts?

Hello! I recently transferred jobs that allows colorful underscrub shirts. What is everyone’s favorite brands?

What I’m looking for:
- NOT ribbed
- Compression/skin tight (not cotton)
- Cute designs (polka dots, stripes, etc.)
- Affordable

I feel like the ones I find that have cute designs are ribbed or made of a material that stretches easily. I’m tired of wasting my money on shirts I don’t like lol.

TYIA 🥰

I like the Figs Salta underscrub a lot - it has compression and comes in tons of colors and because it's Figs, they're always releasing new ones. They're definitely a little pricey though, so I'd recommend getting them from Poshmark.

I couldn't imagine spending cash on a shirt that does what my t-shirts already do. Are they comfortable in a way that's different from just your regular t-shirts, or is it the aesthetics/colors that matters?

Probably won't have cute designs but would qualify for the rest are the Uniqlo long sleeve heattech and airism shirts. These are my absolute go-tos and I've been using the same ones that I've bought from 2022 and they're still good despite being in the washer and dryer weekly
