FAQs
What does 170 GSM mean?
GSM stands for Grams per Square Meter. 170 GSM indicates a medium-weight fabric that offers a balance between breathability and durability.
How does the regular fit feel?
It is designed to be tailored through the body with shorter, fitted sleeves, resulting in a cleaner, less voluminous silhouette than oversized or boxy shirts.
Is the fabric prone to pilling?
Because it uses high-quality long-staple cotton, it is significantly more resistant to pilling than shirts made from shorter, lower-quality fibers, provided it is washed correctly.
Can this be worn as an undershirt?
Yes, its tailored fit makes it an excellent choice for layering, though it is substantial enough to be worn on its own.
What is the benefit of the 1x1 rib neckline?
The 1x1 ribbing provides extra elasticity and strength, ensuring the neckline stays snug and does not warp or sag after multiple wears.
Troubleshooting
Visible shrinking after washing
Always wash in cool water and avoid using a tumble dryer; stretch the garment gently back to shape while damp and lay it flat to dry.
Neckline losing shape
Avoid stretching the neck opening while putting the shirt on or taking it off; ensure the garment is folded neatly when not in use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your ARKET T-shirt maintains its shape and color, follow these care guidelines:
- Washing: Machine wash at a gentle cycle with like colors. Using a mesh laundry bag can further protect the cotton fibers from friction.
- Drying: Avoid high-heat tumble drying, which can cause shrinkage and damage the long-staple fibers; air drying is recommended.
- Compatibility: This T-shirt is designed for a regular fit and pairs well with straight-leg denim, chinos, or layered under structured knitwear.
- Storage: Fold the shirt rather than hanging it for long periods to prevent shoulder bumps or fabric stretching at the hanger points.
