Holey T shirts!

Maybe it is my granite works tops . We had a new kitchen extension and a larger worktop area . Plus an island all with granite worktops . This was about 8 years ago and the height is about level with my belly button .

Ziplok

I have the same problem. It didn’t used to happen but in the last decade or so, it’s very common, which makes me discount the idea of zips and buttons on jeans and trousers being the culprit, as I’ve worn jeans and trousers for years. I wonder if it’s more to do with the quality of the cotton used and the manufacturing process?

Yep.

So called present day cotton tee shirt fabric just seens to get thinner. and thinner. Cheap and poor quality

Also l think the weaving proceess is based around one continuous thread?

This is really weird. Two of my favourite but older tee shirts both have holes in exactly the same place you describe Sealady. When I went to put them on this summer there they were. I wondered about moths as they are all cotton. No new work tops. Only those T shirts - so far. New pair of jeans so perhaps it’s them. Interesting post.

I also have this problem - cheap t-shirts, expensive t-shirts, t-shirts I never wear in the car (seatbelt etc) also I don’t cook so never have the problem of standing over the island prepping etc.

I do have a granite island and worktops but as I’m only 5ft tall my stomach comes below the worktop and the holes are well below that.

It’s a mystery! And an expensive one!

I don't have granite worktops. I still believe it's the pullers on the zips of our trousers, which are at waist height.
