FAQs

What does GOTS-certified mean?

GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard) certification means the textile has been manufactured adhering to strict environmental and social criteria, ensuring it's made from certified organic fibres and produced in an environmentally responsible and socially responsible manner.

Is this shirt suitable for all seasons?

The 100% organic cotton makes it breathable for warmer weather and suitable for layering in cooler months. However, for very cold climates, it would likely require heavier layering.

How do I find the right size?

Refer to the brand's specific size chart, paying attention to measurements for bust, waist, and length. The product description mentions a 'regular fit', which generally allows for some ease.

Can I machine dry this shirt?

Yes, it is recommended to tumble dry on a low heat setting. For best longevity and to minimize potential shrinkage, air drying is often preferred.

How durable are the stripes?

The shirt features yarn-dyed stripes, meaning the yarn is colored before the fabric is woven. This method typically results in more durable and colorfast stripes compared to printing.

What is the fit like?

The shirt has a 'regular fit', which means it is designed to be neither too tight nor too loose, offering a comfortable and classic silhouette.

Troubleshooting

Shirt feels stiff after washing.

Ensure you are using a mild detergent and washing in cold water. Tumble drying on low heat or air drying can also help maintain softness.

Stripes appear faded.

Verify that you are washing the garment inside out and avoiding harsh detergents or bleach. Stick to the recommended cold wash cycle.

Shirt seems to have shrunk more than expected.

Check that the care label instructions were followed precisely. Avoid high heat in washing and drying cycles, as this can exacerbate shrinkage in cotton fabrics.
