FAQs

What does 170 GSM mean?

GSM stands for Grams per Square Meter. 170 GSM indicates a medium-weight cotton fabric that is durable and opaque, providing a quality feel without being too heavy.

Is this T-shirt considered oversized?

No, it features a regular, tailored fit. It is designed to be well-fitted through the body and sleeves.

How should I choose my size?

The shirt follows a standard regular fit. If you are between sizes or prefer a slightly looser feel, you may consider sizing up.

Does the collar lose its shape?

The shirt is finished with a 1x1 rib at the neck to minimize stretching, though proper care and air drying are recommended to ensure it lasts.

Is this suitable for wearing under a blazer?

Yes, its clean lines and tailored fit make it an ideal base layer for layering under blazers, cardigans, or jackets.

Troubleshooting

The fabric feels slightly stiff after washing.

Use a gentle fabric softener or ensure the shirt is hung dry with proper ventilation to allow the fibers to relax.

Minor shrinkage observed after laundering.

Always wash in cold or warm water (not hot) and avoid the tumble dryer to maintain the garment's original size.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-quality, durable 170 GSM cotton weight
  • Tailored aesthetic suitable for smart-casual layering
  • Reinforced 1x1 rib neckline for longevity
  • Consistent, structured fit through the body

Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your ARKET T-shirt maintains its fit and fabric quality, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Washing: Machine wash at 40 degrees Celsius using a mild detergent.
  2. Drying: Air dry is recommended to preserve the cotton fibers and prevent shrinkage. Avoid high-heat tumble drying.
  3. Ironing: Use a medium-heat iron to smooth out wrinkles; avoid ironing directly over the rib-knit collar to prevent flattening the texture.
  4. Storage: Fold the shirt rather than hanging it for long periods to prevent shoulder stretching from hangers.
  5. Compatibility: This item pairs best with tailored trousers, denim, or chinos due to its refined "regular" cut.
