'Covers the middle-aged middle': This super-soft scoop tee is down to only $11

When you find the perfect t-shirt, it’s a treat: The neckline isn’t too high or too low, the material is thin enough to drape properly without being see-through, and it’s designed to fall over your body without hugging too tightly or constricting your arms. Oh, you haven’t found ‘the one’ yet? Meet the Amazon Essentials Relaxed-Fit Scoopneck Swing Tee; according to over 5,000 reviewers who gave it a flawless rating, it’s a winner. With a flowy, flattering cut that doesn't highlight your tummy, this versatile tee is soft, lightweight and comfy.

Reviewers love the top so much, they’re buying multiples.

$9 at Amazon

The Amazon Essentials Scoopneck Swing Tee is crafted from 95% rayon and 5% elastane for a soft and luxurious feel. The jersey gives it a beautiful drape, too. It cleans up like a dream — you can easily toss the top into the wash without worrying about it being destroyed. The t-shirt comes in 21 colors, so there’s plenty of options to choose from. Ahead, see why Amazon reviewers can't get enough of it.

Flattering and stretchy

“I bought five of these tops because I just love them,” wrote an enthusiastic reviewer. “They are so stretchy and comfortable. I’m sure I will order more in different colors.”

"Very flattering body-skimming cut," a shopper shared. "Love the look of it. Reminds me of some designer tunics that I own — but 90% less expensive! Very pleased with these. They also dry very quickly, making them ideal for travel."

Super soft

Others agree that they keep choosing this shirt over the others in their closets. “This shirt is just a tee shirt. BUT! I want to wear it all the time,” they wrote. “The fabric is just thick enough and here's the thing: It feels like the fabric is made from angel hair and baby butts — the nicest, softest thing you can imagine. I am wearing it now. I ordered another one. I don't want to wear anything else.”

Washes well

“WOW, I love these shirts,” writes another five-star reviewer. “I started out ordering just two, ordered two more and then ordered a few more. They are wonderful and wash well. They dry well and for the most part are wrinkle-resistant. I love them and would encourage anyone looking at them to go ahead and place your order. They fit perfectly in the arms and cover a little mid bulge. For the price, they are incredible.”

Hides the tummy

"This is the best shirt ever,” writes a satisfied customer. “This shirt arrived, I tried it on and I left it on to go out to dinner. It fit exactly as I wanted to, hung loosely enough to cover the middle-aged middle, and didn't cling where it shouldn't. My husband immediately said, ‘That's a great shirt.’ I couldn't find anything even remotely close to this in stores. I'm about to go order it in a few more colors because it's PERFECT.”

Another happy shopper said: "I love the material. It's soft and silky feeling and cool to the touch. I sleep in them because it helps with hot flashes, but it's a great basic shirt for layering. It's a little wider in the hip area and slightly long, which helps hide the tummy without looking baggy. The sleeves are a tiny bit tighter than I'd like, but it's not a deal breaker. I'll be buying more."

“They are so stretchy and comfortable," is a common praise from shoppers.
