Frequently Asked Questions

Is this screen print or will the graphic hold up?

Superior to standard screen printing. The DTFlex ink bonds with the cotton fibers and remains flexible through stretching and washing. It won't crack or flake, maintaining a solid matte appearance. The print is built to last through regular wardrobe rotation.

Is this a heavyweight boxy shape or fit like a gym shirt? I'm not skinny and have things to hide.

Boxy and relaxed throughout. The heavyweight cotton creates structure that hides undershirts and provides coverage. It doesn't taper at the waist or cling to your sides. The fit is straightforward and comfortable, designed for all body types without compromise.

How would a lazy person wash and dry this? Asking for a friend.

Pre-shrunk cotton requires minimal care. Wash cold and tumble dry on low to medium heat. The garment-dye process locks in color, so it won't bleed. The heavyweight fabric softens with repeated washing. Standard laundry practices work fine—no delicate cycles needed.

Does this have that 'washed/faded' vintage look, or is it just a flat, solid color?

Pigment-dye process creates texture and depth immediately. The color has natural highs and lows rather than a flat, uniform appearance. It looks vintage and lived-in from day one, not stiff or new. The matte finish and subtle color variation give it authentic character.
