The stripe is a versatile and classic pattern to wear, and the best striped shirts are ones that Amazon reviewers love — that also happen to fit your unique look. Stripes can range from bold and colorful to simple and elegant, and striped shirts come in a bunch of different styles. Choose between tanks, tees, sweaters, and more depending on your needs and preferences.

When it comes to choosing your ideal striped shirt, tanks, and crop tops are ideal choices for warm weather, while long-sleeve shirts, sweaters, and sweatshirts are musts when temperatures drop. T-shirts are a wardrobe staple — wear them on their own or layered with other pieces. And button-downs are perfect for a slightly dressier look. With each of these styles you’ll be able to choose from different necklines (such as V-neck, crewneck, and turtleneck) and sleeve lengths. Sleeveless or short-sleeve shirts will help you stay cool, while 3/4 and long sleeve options are warmer overall.

Be sure that you also pay attention to the fabric that the shirt is made from and choose one that feels right to you: Cotton is soft and breathable, synthetics like polyester and semi-synthetics like rayon and modal can wick moisture, and spandex gives clothing just a bit of extra stretch.

There are an overwhelming number of striped shirts to choose from on Amazon, so to help you out, I narrowed it down to these top nine shirts, which all have stellar reviews on the site. They’re also all under $30 — so go ahead, pick up a few options and rock those stripes.

We only recommend products we love and that we think you will, too. We may receive a portion of sales from products purchased from this article, which was written by our Commerce team.
