Frequently Asked Questions


  • Yes, slightly. It is 100% cotton. Expect about 2-3% shrinkage after the first wash. We recommend buying your true size, but if you are between sizes, go up-not down.

  • It might feel slightly stiff right out of the bag due to the natural starch used in the printing process. It softens significantly after the first wash.

  • Yes. Saturated hand-block dyes (especially blacks, indigos, and reds) release excess colour for the first few washes. You must wash this item separately or with like colours for the first 3 washes to avoid ruining your other clothes.

  • No. The heat will fade the black dye and shrink the cotton instantly. Always air dry in the shade to keep the print crisp and the size accurate.
