About the original
The Hanes Men's X-Temp Thermal Long-Sleeve Crew is a waffle-knit base layer made from a 60% cotton, 40% polyester blend, with rib-knit cuffs and flat seams meant to sit flat under other layers. Its X-Temp finish, Hanes' moisture-wicking treatment, is built to move sweat off the skin as body heat rises. Hanes traces to the P.H. Hanes Knitting Company, which began producing knit underwear in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, in 1902, and its waffle thermals are a stock cold-weather item across US retailers. Supreme has re-released this crew across eleven fall/winter seasons since 2015, adding a matching thermal pant in 2018. The Supreme version is the same X-Temp waffle-knit top.
