Memorial Day weekend is here—and with it, an avalanche of sales. The markdowns are tempting, but not all deals are actually worth your time. That’s where I come in. If you buy one thing this weekend, make it this $25 white T-shirt from Gap.

It’s part of Gap’s Memorial Day promotion, where summer staples are 50 percent off—including the Organic Cotton Vintagesoft T-Shirt, which comes in just about every color imaginable. But the white version? That’s the real gem. I own two and wear them constantly. As someone who’s tested a lot of T-shirts in my job, I can confidently say: this is the best one on the market.

It’s 100 percent cotton, lightweight and breathable, and the cut is Goldilocks-level perfect—not too tight, not too loose, and just cropped enough to style tucked or untucked. It’s even slightly sheer in that intentional, model-off-duty way: your black bra might peek through, but your nude one won’t. It’s the kind of basic you’ll want to build your whole summer wardrobe around—and right now, it’s half off.
