hold-it™ ortiz t-shirt

I am usually an XS or S at Aritzia. This shirt is a nice basic white tee, but it is tight. I wish I would have ordered a medium so I could have tried on both. I am keeping the small, but it is definitely pretty tight not super comfy, but a good basic to have. I wish Aritzia still carried the Wilfred free Dawson tee because that’s the best tee of all time.

Quality is great, but the fabric is quite thick and the fit is quite snug and compressive, feels kinda restrictive. Definitely holds up to the “Hold It” name!! I don’t see anything particularly wrong with it, but it just isn’t quite what I was looking for (a soft plain baby tee). It’s just not the most comfortable, and it sliiiightly gives uniboob if you’re larger chested. If you’re looking for a fitted tee that snatches you, this is probably perfect, akin to the Contour but less soft. Might be exchanging this for a homestretch tee instead.

Such a great material. It’s firm but comfy at the same time and allows you to breathe.

I loveeee this t-shirt! It has a very flattering fit, slightly more narrow than other t shirts. The quality and thickness is perfect and gives it a nice structure to hold its shape. Overall would definitely buy again in other colours. Buy it!!

like the thick material, very comfortable as well,

I wasn’t expecting the fabric to be as thick as it was but it’s super nice quality. I am normally a small or medium in tops depending on the fit. I decided to order a large because I didn’t want it to be skin tight or just too snug. It fit perfect! For reference I am 5’4 150lbs. I have a small torso and hold most of my weight in my legs. If you are looking for a slimmer fit I would order your normal size but if you want it a tad looser order a size up

Wanted to love it but it is horrible for any water or sweat, I was so embarrassed at the wet strip across my stomach after carrying my newborn. Do not love the material and wish I could get my money back

I love the green. She shirt is snug (as described). I am always a small, but needed to size up to a medium in this. Well made, thicker fabric. For size reference: I have a very lean torso and arms. 34 B chest. 5’6 and 118 lbs.

Perfect t-shirt for everyday wear! Super comfortable and flattering on.

Honestly I size down in these. Only for a more snatched look. And I love it. The quality is amazing. It’s super thick and shaping.

I think it’s depends on your body type but this shirt just fit me very weirdly. I sized up to a medium I’m usually a small, and I fit into brandy tops but the shoulders on this were so narrow and the way it fit makes me think that it would only fit someone who’s very slim or built narrow. I am curvy so boxy fits don’t always work, this defo didn’t. Also the material was really weird since the shirt seems to be looser like it was super stretchy and thick but not fitted so idk. I’d definitely size up and I’d recommend to ppl with narrow shoulders/flat chest.

it fits norma size, its super comfy. love that its not ribbed. however does stretch over time!

A little too tight on the shoulder/arm area. Upper area a bit suffocating. Elastic around that area straining.

This is a cute staple to have. The material is thick and it’s really comfortable . I ordered a medium which is my size and the shoulders were too small the length was good. So I ordered a large and it fits perfectly.

It’s so comfy and cozy. It can be dressed up or down!

Absolutely love this shirt in the cropped version of this but the hip length does not fit at all like the photos, I looked like a box. The shirt did not lay on my body the way the photos look and I have a similar body type as the model. The matte pearl color is more tan than what it looks like in the photo as well, almost looked like a completely different shirt. The material however, is AMAZING I love it. It could have just been the shirt that I ordered because no one else is complaining about this but I was not satisfied with what I had received in the mail.

Tight fit, compression fit, especially in the bust and shoulder area. Thicker fabric

Nice shirt and good fabric I'm usually a small or medium in Aritzia Tees... this one I could have gone with a Large. I'm 5'6 and 133 lbs.

As other reviewers have mentioned, they are a bit tight across the shoulders. However, the fabric is very thick and feels high quality; I got heather cloud white and it isn't see-through at all! It hits right at the hip and has the perfect fit other than the shoulders ( I'm about 135 lbs and I'm usually a size medium for reference).

Thicker fabric feels expensive without actually costing too much. Love how it sits, perfect for lower waisted sweats or jeans. Sized down for more of a baby tee feel so sleeves are a little small around the shoulder so keep that in mind if u do the same.

I am 5"11 and 165 lbs, I haven't been able to find baby tees that don't turn into extreme crop tops till this shirt. It sits at a mid-length so it's perfect with any pants. I own a medium that fits like your typical tight baby tee and an XL that is more of an oversized baby tee fit

Very disappointed when I received these items...but I guess I should have realized when I saw the models that model them! The t-shirt is wonderful...soft, stretchy, thick fabric, nice length in the sleeve, a true crew neck...it looks great on from the chest up. So if you are built like a "model", this is definitely a perfect addition to your wardrobe. If only it would fit the average figure!
However, I usually wear a medium in most clothing, but to be on the safe side, I ordered a large. I needn't have bothered..the large fits like a small!
Now I recall why I don't normally shop at Aritzia; the sizes are completely unrealistic, and made for ultra-slim women.

I love the material and general fit of this shirt. It's a thicker material that I can tell will withstand more than average amount of wears. However, the fit in my shoulders is too tight. I'm between a small and medium, but with broader shoulders, a medium is still too tight.

It’s the perfect top. Stretchy and slim fitting. I love that’s it’s not cropped nor too long. It’s the perfect staple for anyone’s closet. I have it in black but hope to try the other colors too.

This top is great quality, it snatches the waist and feels so seamless! Great alternative for Skims and still such amazing quality. Not overpriced, they could probably charge more for Aritzia. Have this in multiple colors and goes with everything!

I absolutely LOVE this t-shirt! I love it so much that I just purchased the white and black as well. It's PERFECT with pencil skirts, denim/blazer and dress pants. Washes beautifully. Will purchase a few extras - they are that good!

If there's one thing that stands out about this t-shirt, it's the durability. Constructed from a stiff, thick cotton, this garment promises to endure regular wear and washes with hardly a change in quality. Its robustness is its primary asset, making it a potentially long-lasting addition to the wardrobe.

The t-shirt comes in a tight fit, which, coupled with the rigidity of the material, makes it feel ultra-structured. While this may appeal to some, it does compromise on comfort. The thickness of the cotton restricts movement and is not particularly pleasant for extended wear.

While I appreciate the structure and the range of colors, the main drawback of this t-shirt is the material. The thickness of the cotton, while contributing to durability, detracts significantly from the comfort and wearability of the shirt. A more flexible or softer material would greatly enhance the overall experience of wearing this garment.

In light of these factors, I find it difficult to recommend this t-shirt. Its impressive durability and color range are overshadowed by the lack of comfort, primarily due to the stiff, thick material. Therefore, this t-shirt may only appeal to those who prioritize long-lasting quality over daily wear comfort.

Really happy with it, fits great. It’s a thicker material than I thought, but not rigid. Almost remind me of shapewear, but comfy. Only thing is the arms fit quite tight.

My favorite tees for this summer. Perfect length can pair with pants or skirts. I bought 3 different colors, and wear it almost everyday.

I initially took a size L because everyone said it was small (I’m usually a M) but it was way too big. Then, I took my true size and I felt like it could be tighter while still being comfortable. My right size was finally S, so I recommend sizing down unlike other comments .

I wanted to like this top because the fabric is so comfortable, but the fit on my body was super strange. In a medium, the arms dug into my shoulders. In a large, the creases on the top of the shirt lifted almost an inch above my natural shoulder. It's way more structured than it looks in photos, if you're like me and your shoulders aren't as wide as your hips it doesn't have the best fit.

I ordered my usual size and it was too tight on my arms and underarms/side of my chest it was uncomfortable and the texture was not was i expecting, it was thick, unfortunately had to return the shirt. beautiful color tho

the t shirt itself fits true to size. however, when you lift your arms the sleeves crunch up and is very uncomfortable. i feel like they cut the shoulder seam to short so its up higher than your shoulders making it uncomfortable when lifting arms; had to return.

I’ll still wear this shirt for sure, but I ordered an xs and was surprised by how boxy it was. It’s not form fitting at all and I would size down BUT the armpits are crazy tight. I would go for the the Sunday best bliss hip tee shirt instead.

Love the fabric and the thickness and quality!

Perfect fit, I will recommend this t-shirt

Cute top, but the sleeves are super tight while the rest is flowier, not proportionate.

I tried small (usual size) and medium because half the reviews said to size up. I think they both fit me and weren't cutting off my circulation, but the medium was a lot more flattering. It only hugged my chest area whereas the small was also hugging my stomach and there was a lot of bunching that didn't look great. Also both sizes were not cropped!! summer staple! will def get in more colours!!

I am so disappointed in the quality of the shirts that I bought… it’s si bad. People been talking about how aritzia is good but i am so disappointed in the things that I got, I wish i could still return the two top that I got.

Shirt fits great everywhere except my arms. Very tight on my arms so if your arms aren’t slender I’d pass.

Ordered a small in heather white was recommended. Should have ordered a medium just to give a bit more room as material doesnt have as much give as the TNA ribbed tshirts. Which i also get in a medium. Im 5’2” and weigh 117lbs. Otherwise cute tshirt

I bought this top in every colour! It’s amazing. The perfect basic tee. It’s form fitting and makes me look snatched. Perfect dupe for the $80 skims teeshirts. I’m usually between a medium or large and got all of them in a medium. They fit tight to the body which is exactly how I want them to fit. Maybe size down if you’re going for the same look. The fabric is very high quality and thick. I’m obsessed with these tops highly recommend.

This shirt is flattering, super form fitting and I love how the shirt is longer. I would even compare this to the skims t-shirt. The material is almost identical and for literally half the price. I will be buying more colours. I would size up, I’m usually a M but I bought a L cause it hugs you in.

The shirt is fitted. I would definitely recommend. The thing I dislike about the shirt is if you get a stain especially on the white. It's hard to get rid of it. But over it's a great fitted shirt.

I've been looking for a nice, fitted t-shirt that's not see through and I think I found it! Don't love the TNA logo on the bottom as I feel like it classes it down a bit, but it's not too prominent. Definitely would see a darker bra and/or nipples through the fabric. Arms are a bit tight on me but I have bigger arms. Still feels good!
