Why does it seem like I received one shirt made out of a thinner and softer material than the other shirts I received? Has anyone else experienced this?
Material?

I have three of these now (all in the same size). Each one is a different material! The first was very thin, stretchy, and really a great shirt since it is sized so small. The second was a very thick material with no stretch to it at all! I cannot even get that one on, even though it should fit exactly like the first one I received. The third shirt is wearable, but again is thicker material than the first, at least this one has a bit more stretch to it than the second one!

I would wager a guess that they are ordering these made up using the "most cost effective" material available, which would account for the varied material (which ever one is cheaper to make that day).
I know that I was happy with the first one, so I ordered more to "modify" some of them as I had seen in a video here. As it stands now...I have one to hide in the closet, one to tuck away for "emergency t-shirt needs", and one I can actually wear and enjoy.
So long as they are offering these free with purchase, I may get a few more (they'll make good rags if nothing else), but I wouldn't spend the $15 asking price on them with the materials being so varied from order to order!

Good to know, and I hope the one I'll get in my next order will be a soft material.

Thanks for posting this! I was thinking about getting another one and didn't realize there were so many different shirts being sent out. Appreciated!

I got a second one by accident, and it was the exact same silky material as the one I wrote a review for. It's strange that you got some that weren't all the same material.

No, but I know the feeling
I've ordered things from Hot Topic that claim to have the same cotton/ whatever blend, but one feels heavier. I think it has to do with thread count, but they never advertise that on the sales, or at least I never see it, unless it's sheets or something
