We did not find any shrinkage after washing with warm water and tumbling dry on medium heat.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Based on feedback we’ve received, all our tshirts run true to size with the exception of the tank tops (they seem to run a bit larger). All styles are pre-shrunk so there will be minimal shrinkage, if any, after washing. Our best advice is to measure a tshirt you have that fits well and then compare to the sizing charts above for the style you are interested in.
-
Yes, this is completely normal. The DTG digital printing process requires a fabric finish to ensure the water-based inks adhere to the fabric surface (otherwise they would flake off). We recommend washing before wearing following instructions above. It should only take one wash cycle to eliminate the odor.
-
Our printer uses the latest direct-to-garment (DTG) printing technology with high-quality inks that won't fade for a long time if taken care of properly. We recommend the following care steps to best extend the life of your sweatshirt:
• Machine-wash cold, inside-out on a gentle cycle with mild detergent and like colors. Use non-chlorine bleach only when necessary. Do not use fabric softeners or dry-clean the items.
• Tumble-dry on a low cycle, but hang-drying works best.
• Iron inside-out using a cool iron. Do not iron the print.
Follow these instructions carefully to avoid fading and cracking of the print, and shrinking the garment that can occur if you wash or dry it on a high setting. -
