Light blue dress shirts for sweaty men
I’ve always been a sweaty guy, even in relatively milder weather. Even when I wear undershirts, pit sweat stains show on my shirts. this makes wearing light blue dress shirts annoying because it shows sweat stains much more than other colors. Unfortunately this sucks for me because light blue is one of my favorite colors that matches well with my current suits and sport coats.
Do any similarly sweaty guys here have any experience with the best cotton dress shirt that is resistant to sweat and shows the least stains? Most of my current dress shirts are j.Crew and CT poplin shirts. Not sure if I should branch out to non cotton blends or if there’s a more upscale brand that’s better on this issue.

what kind of undershirts do you wear?
Thin cotton Hanes v necks. I’ve always found it to be a trade off between a thick undershirt which makes me hot and sweat even more, and no undershirt which shows any sweat I’ll generate
Are you wearing antiperspirant or deodorant? Antiperspirant pit stains way more than deodorant and doesn’t even work
I sweat and with normal deodorant I don’t get pit stains
Underfit has these shirts that are 1) mostly made from Lyocell and Tencel and 2) snug so that they don't bunch up. Made a big difference for me.
I recommend trying synthetic undershirts, such as Uniqlo Airism. I also sweat a lot, and I find that avoiding cotton helps a lot.
have you tried applying it at night?
Airism instead of cotton also works for me
I don’t need it. Deodorant is fine
I'm also a very sweaty guy, I put this on every night and I never have any issues with pit stains ever since

I also put on regular deodorant in the morning
Though I still have issues with back sweat
Tackle the source, not the symptom. Thanks all!
