When you order this shirt, you will receive the actual shirt pictured. It is hand-dyed by Shelly with professional procion fiber-reactive dyes that resist fading. The dark lines in this shirt look more navy blue than black in person. This tee has a weathered vintage-fade look due to the dye technique.
The shirt is a Gildan 5000 Heavy Cotton 5.3oz tee, made with 100% ring-spun US cotton that is ethically grown and harvested. It has a tear-away label, no side seams, and reinforced shoulders for scratch-free wear.
SIZING:
To ensure your best fit, lay your favorite t-shirt flat and measure its width from armpit to armpit, then compare that width to the size chart to select your size, rounding up. This t-shirt has a unisex, true-to-size fit. Size down for a fitted look or size up for an oversized look. I find these Gildans to be the most consistent in sizing all the way through their size range, including plus sizes.
CARE:
After dying, this shirt has been hand-rinsed cold, soaked hot, hand-rinsed hot, machine-washed hot, and dried. While this process should remove any stray dye, we recommend that for the first few washes, wash it separately or use a . I personally use color catcher sheets in every load of laundry, regardless of whether it's tie dye or not. You'd be shocked at how much dye seeps out of jeans and other clothing in the wash!
Wash cold with like colors and dry on low heat. Do not bleach. Do not dry clean. Ironing is not recommended.
