Our Style, Fit & Sizing Recommendations

• This t-shirt features a Regular Fit, offering a traditional profile through the chest and shoulders for a reliable, non-restrictive feel.
• The midweight cotton jersey provides a structured drape that sits comfortably on the body while effectively holding its iconic shape.
  
• Here at the store we recommend taking your usual size for the intended classic look, as the high-quality fabric ensures a stable fit with minimal stretching over time.

Washing & Care Instructions

• Machine wash on a warm, gentle cycle up to 40°C to preserve the cotton fibres and the technical screen-printed graphics.
• Wash the t-shirt inside out to protect the front and back prints from surface abrasion against the machine drum.
• Hang the t-shirt to dry naturally in a shaded area; avoiding high-heat tumble drying will help maintain the fabric's softness and original fit.
• Iron at a medium temperature on the reverse side only, ensuring you avoid direct contact with the printed artwork.
• Avoid the use of bleach or harsh chemical detergents, which can compromise the durability of the cotton and cause uneven fading of the vintage wash.

Our OBEY Design Services T-Shirt FAQs

1. What is the difference between Vintage Black and standard Black?
   Vintage Black has been treated with a specialised wash to give it a slightly grey, sun-faded appearance that feels softer and more "broken-in" from day one.

2. Will the large back print make the shirt feel stiff?
   No, OBEY uses high-quality ink that integrates with the midweight fabric, ensuring the graphic remains flexible and breathable during movement.

3. Does this shirt shrink much after washing?
   Because it is a high-quality midweight cotton, shrinkage is minimal if you follow the recommended 40°C wash and air-dry instructions.

4. Is the fabric heavy enough for winter layering?
   Yes, the midweight construction makes it an excellent base layer under a flannel shirt or a technical jacket during colder months.
