I use them as they are with no issues.

I wasn't going to interface these.... is that ok?

I just wanted to check before I started

What do you guys think?

I use all weights of cotton fabric (not tee, polo, golf etc) men's shirts with good results. Never use interfacing of any kind.

I've made several memory quilts with mixed men's shirts. The stretchy polos and tshirts all needed a light interfacing. My problem (and big time consumer) was dealing with the buttons on the polos and the dress shirts.

I use a very lightweight fusible on men's shirts. I also starch well. I try to get them to the "hand" of quilting cottons.
