Full details

FAQs

What does 170 GSM mean?

GSM stands for Grams per Square Meter. It is a measurement of the fabric's weight and density. 170 GSM is considered a medium weight, ideal for a durable, non-transparent T-shirt.

Is this shirt considered true to size?

Yes, it follows a standard regular fit, but it is intentionally tailored through the body and neckline for a cleaner look.

Can I tumble dry this T-shirt?

While machine washing is fine, it is highly recommended to air dry the shirt to prevent excessive shrinkage of the cotton fibers.

What material is used in this garment?

The shirt is made from 100% long-staple cotton, chosen for its strength and softness.

Does the neckline lose its shape easily?

The shirt features a 1x1 rib-knit collar, which is designed to be more resistant to stretching and sagging over time.

Troubleshooting

The fabric feels slightly stiff after washing.

Use a gentle fabric softener or ensure you are not overloading the washing machine to allow for proper rinsing.

The shirt has developed small wrinkles after drying.

Use a garment steamer or a cool iron to lightly press the fabric while it is still slightly damp.

Minor shrinkage observed after the first wash.

Always wash in cold water and reshape the garment while wet before hanging it to air dry.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable medium-weight fabric that isn't too thin or too heavy
  • Tailored cut provides a polished silhouette
  • High-quality cotton material feels soft and premium
  • Excellent for versatile layering

Cons

  • Regular fit may feel restrictive for those who prefer an oversized style
  • Shorter sleeve length may not suit all body types
  • Cotton requires careful washing to prevent shrinking

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your ARKET T-shirt maintains its tailored shape and soft feel, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Washing: Machine wash at a cool temperature (usually 30-40 degrees Celsius) with like colors to prevent fading.
  2. Drying: Air drying is recommended to preserve the fiber integrity of the long-staple cotton. Avoid high-heat tumble drying, as this can lead to shrinkage.
  3. Ironing: Use a medium-heat iron if necessary to touch up the collar or press out wrinkles.
  4. Storage: Fold the shirt rather than hanging it for long periods to prevent the shoulders from stretching out.
