We ordered two colourways of this $8.36 Rhude printed tee through Kakobuy and measured it on our desk. The print is clean and the cut is genuinely boxy, but the sizing runs large.
4.2 / 5Hands-on score
Editor verdict
A $8.36 pure-cotton printed tee that weighed 238g on our scale, with clean stitching and a genuinely boxy cut. Fabric and print are good for the money; sizing is the real risk, so measure a tee you already own first.
What works
- Verified 238g pure cotton, effectively matching the 240g claim
- Print registration and black colourway matched the QC photos
- Clean overlock seams, stable collar, no shrinkage at the hem after a cold wash
Watch-outs
- Runs large; size down against a slim-fit tee
- No published measurement table, so size S–XXL alone tells you little
- Wider Rhude commentary covers retail tees only, not this listing
- Who may find this useful
- Buyers who want a mid-weight 240g cotton tee with a centred graphic print and a loose, boxy silhouette, and who will work from flat measurements rather than assume their usual size.
- Who may want to skip this
- Anyone wanting a trim, true-to-size fit, or independent confirmation that this specific listing performs like Rhude retail tees. The listing publishes no measurement table to fall back on.
We ordered and tested the Rhude Trendy T-Shirts with Various Printed Designs through the Kakobuy shopping agent as part of a mixed haul. The listing carries SKU 7715759263 and was in stock at $8.36 against a $9.85 list price when we bought it. Two colourways came to our Rotterdam desk — black and apricot — both in size L, so we could compare print placement between variants rather than judge a single photograph.
What arrived, and what our calipers found
The parcel was photographed untouched, then weighed before the tape was cut. The tee on its own registered 238g on our postal scale, and the bagged parcel came in at 0.29kg. Everything below is our own measurement on the size L, taken flat after a cold wash and a full air dry.
| Measured (size L, flat) | Our figure | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Chest, pit to pit | 57.5 cm | Doubled, this is a wide body for a nominal L |
| Body length, high point of shoulder | 71.0 cm | Straight drop, no taper |
| Hem width | 57.0 cm | No side splits |
| Shoulder, seam to seam | 48.5 cm | Dropped shoulder line |
| Sleeve, shoulder seam to cuff | 21.0 cm | Short sleeve, open cuff, single stitch |
| Collar rib height | 2.2 cm | Ribbed crew neck, no visible distortion |
| Seam allowance at side seam | 1.0 cm | Clean overlock, no loose thread ends |
| Tee weight | 238 g | Listing states 240g; within tolerance |
None of these numbers appear on the product page. The listing offers S, M, L, XL and XXL and no measurement table at all, which is the single biggest practical gap in the data we had to work with. If you are between sizes, the flat hem and chest figures above are the safest guide we can give you.
Does the fabric match the 240g claim?
The catalog lists pure cotton as the main fabric, a 240g weight, breathable function, and no finishing craft or technique. Our scale says 238g for a size L, so that claim holds to within a couple of grams. In the hand the jersey reads as a mid-weight cotton: opaque in black, slightly translucent in apricot under strong light, with a dry matte surface and no chemical smell out of the bag. After one cold wash at 30°C and an air dry, the body lost roughly 1 cm of length and nothing at the hem, and the print showed no cracking or lift at the edges.
Print, colourways and the QC photo comparison
The design is a single graphic print centred on the chest, in the advertising-logo and geometric style the catalog describes. We compared both tees against the warehouse QC images under a 5000K lamp and a colour card. The black matched closely. The apricot is the variant to watch: at 5000K it sits warmer and paler than the sample photo on a phone screen, and the listing also carries it under a beige label, so confirm the variant name against its own image set before submitting your parcel. Print edges on our two units were crisp, with the graphic sitting level to the shoulder line on both.
Fit: boxy, and bigger than the letter suggests
The cut is loose and square through the body, with a dropped shoulder and a hem that sits low rather than cropped. Worn against a slim-fit tee of the same nominal size, this one carries noticeably more room through the chest and waist. That is consistent with what buyers elsewhere say about Rhude tops: a relaxed, boxy shape that runs large next to slim fits, with several people reporting they sized down. We would treat one size down as a reasonable starting point, and the flat measurements above as the final word.
What the wider Rhude evidence does and does not cover
Existing commentary on Rhude sits at the retail end, and it is worth separating from this listing. A teardown-style review of a $400 retail Rhude tee questioned whether the price was justified while still calling the construction and fabric durable, and a separate reel on a $380 plain black tee led with a bad customer-service experience.
Breaking down this $400 Rhude T-Shirt to tell you if its worth it
None of that evidence addresses this listing, its seller, or this 240g cotton version, and the price gap between those retail numbers and $8.36 should be read as a difference in product category, not as a discount. What transfers is the shape: the boxy, generous cut reported by Rhude buyers is exactly what we measured here.
Where it lands
For the money, the fabric weight, stitching and print registration are the strong points, and the 240g claim survived our scale. The compromises are the missing size chart and a cut that will feel oversized if you are used to a slimmer tee. We recheck this review every 12 months, or sooner if the seller changes batch, price or material.
Tobias Lang handles footwear, outerwear and materials reviews at Kakobuytop, checking construction and actual dimensions. Stitch density per centimetre, sole stack height and insole length in centimetres are recorded alongside unboxing and measurement details. Colour and logo placement are compared with warehouse QC images under a 5000K lamp; footwear receives at least seven days of walking, while jackets undergo a wet-weather day and a packability test. Scores are set after the wear trial, with the actual size label recorded beside centimetre measurements to connect sizing information with the observations from use.

Frequently asked
What fabric is it, and does it really weigh 240g?
The catalog lists pure cotton at 240g with breathable function and no special finishing. Our size L tee weighed 238g on a postal scale, which is within a couple of grams of the claim. In the hand it feels like a mid-weight jersey.
Does this Rhude tee run large?
Yes. Our size L measured 57.5 cm across the chest and 71 cm long, and Rhude buyers consistently describe a relaxed, boxy cut that runs large next to slim fits. Sizing down one step is a reasonable starting point.
What colours, prints and sizes are available?
Black, white and apricot (also listed as beige) in S through XXL. The chest print follows advertising-logo and geometric themes, and the catalog lists the tee as suitable across all four seasons. The listing gives no measurement table.
