Been doing that for a lot of years, never had an issue.
Shirt doesn't get it as clean and clear as a microfiber cloth. I have a few very large microfibers that I keep around the house and at least one in the car.
Also, shirt can and will scratch the screen, maybe not noticeable at first but over time it will do damage.
Eh it gets it clean enough for my purposes (no fingerprints). And I always have a screen protector on my devices so if anything it's damaging that. I've had a smart phone since an old-school Blackberry World Edition from shit...2007? Though I guess my first touch screen one was a Blackberry Storm a year later. Regardless, never had any issues whatsoever. That's obviously anecdotal but still.
I think I got ny first blackberry around the same time. Still have my 9700 around here somewhere and last time I checked it still worked. Maybe I notice it more but the shirts I wear don't clean my glasses or my phone very well, all they do is move the oils around and it isn't as clear as it can be.
I've stopped worrying about screen protectors with the latest editions of gorilla glass.
