FAQs

What material is the shirt made from?

Can I add my own name and number to the shirt?

Yes, you can add your name and number to this product. Please note that customized items are made to order and are non-refundable unless faulty.

Is the shirt machine washable?

Where is this shirt made?

What is the fit of the shirt?

The shirt features a regular fit.

What are the washing recommendations to maintain the shirt's shape?

For best results, machine wash on a gentle cycle with cool water, use mild detergent, and hang dry or tumble dry on low heat. Avoid high heat during washing and drying.

What does '2 ply Combed Cotton' mean?

Combed cotton is treated by combing out short threads, leaving longer, stronger fibers. '2 ply' means two single yarns are twisted together to create a stronger, smoother thread, enhancing durability and feel.

Troubleshooting

Shirt loses shape after washing

Ensure you are using a gentle wash cycle with cool water and avoiding high heat during tumble drying. Hang drying is recommended for optimal shape retention.

Custom name/number peeling or cracking

Avoid high heat when ironing and always iron on the reverse side. Do not use harsh detergents or bleach.

Fabric feels stiff after washing

This can sometimes happen with heavyweight cotton. A fabric softener can be used sparingly on a subsequent wash, or simply wearing the shirt will soften it over time.
