Full details

FAQs
What does 'dry fleece' mean?
Dry fleece refers to a type of fleece fabric that has a less fluffy, matte finish compared to traditional fleece, often contributing to a more structured or vintage appearance. It's designed to feel substantial and durable.
Is the worn-out look intentional?
Yes, the worn-out details and the masking tape artwork with a dirty effect are intentional design elements meant to create an avant-garde, deconstructed aesthetic.
How do I determine the correct size?
This hoodie has an oversized fit. Refer to the brand's sizing chart for specific measurements. Generally, consider your usual size for the intended oversized look or size down if you prefer a less voluminous fit.
What is the main material of the hoodie?
The main material is 100% cotton. The pocket lining is also 100% cotton.
Can I machine wash this hoodie?
Yes, it is recommended to machine wash cold, inside out, on a gentle cycle with like colors. Avoid bleach and harsh detergents.
What should I do if the drawstring is uneven?
Ensure the drawstring is threaded evenly through the hood. If it has been pulled unevenly, carefully adjust it back through the eyelets.
Where was this hoodie made?
This hoodie is made in Portugal.
Troubleshooting
Graphic print appears to be fading unevenly.
This is an intended design feature ('dirty effect' and worn-out details). Ensure you are following the care instructions precisely to maintain the intended aesthetic.
Hoodie feels stiffer than expected.
The 'dry fleece' material can feel different from standard fleece. Washing it according to the care instructions may soften the fabric over time.
Zipper is difficult to move.
Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to align the zipper tracks. If the issue persists, consult a professional tailor for repair.
Elasticated cuffs/waistline losing elasticity.
Avoid high heat during drying. Tumble dry on low or opt for hang drying. Excessive heat can degrade elastic components over time.
