I'm a fan of Under Armour, especially since I can get it in a V-Neck. It's held up pretty well, I don't use fabric softener and I hang dry them.

How were you drying the shirts?
Air dry (no heat) in the dryer, if at all. Probably 80% air dry in the dryer and the rest hang or lay dry.

Maybe that is one of the reasons they were shedding.
Its not. The ONLY piece of athletic or synthetic clothing I dry with ANY heat is my Sansabelt pants for hoops. If you don't apply some heat to them, and I dry them on low for only about 15 minutes, they wrinkle like hell. I don't get that, but its what happens with mine. I had to call Sansabelt to find out why they wrinkled -- they said they recommended some heat. I may have made a post about that on here.

In the early 90's I was probably drying the early synthetic clothes with some heat, but that ended way more than 10 years ago. If nothing else, static forced the issue. Plus, around 2002 or so, you could spin them on high in the washer and they'd air dry in 30 minutes or less. My socks are the only things that take longer, for some reason.

I would add that personally, I like to go with sleeves. I used to do sleeveless undershirts but ended up with pit stains in my stripes. As far as the V-neck, when in Rome as they say. I've heard in certain areas they want the v-neck. In my parts, I've never heard it mentioned.
