You’ve Got Questions?

What shirt brand do you print on?

All standard t-shirts are printed on Bella + Canvas brand tees, unless otherwise stated. Our shirts have are trendy with a slim fit, but they run big. 

What size should I order?

Our sizes range from XSmall – 2XLarge. Please see our sizing chart for more details and suggestions for fit. These are unisex tees and run big. Women should order one size down from their regular size for a slimmer fit. Additional sizes and women’s cut tees are available upon request and potentially at additional cost.

What type of printing process is used on your apparel?

All of our shirts are printed by hand and custom made at the time of ordering. We use both screen printing and heat transfer processes.

Will the designs fade?

Some of the prints will fade some after being washed. Black prints tend to fade the most, but will still hold up for lots of wear and washes. Washing instructions are found on the tag of each shirt or keep reading below.

Are there any specific care instructions?

Yes, please follow these tips to take care of the t-shirts:


• Washing: Wash inside out with cold water with similar colors using a gentle cycle.

• Avoid using bleach and do not dry clean.
