Size guide

When in doubt, choose the larger size for a relaxed fit.

Why this t-shirt and not another?

Semi-combed Ringspun cotton is softer and more durable than standard cotton — the fibers are longer and better aligned, resulting in a jersey that retains its shape and color longer. At 190 g/m², it is thick enough not to become transparent after washing, without being heavy to wear. The tubular cut eliminates side seams that cause chafing. And the OEKO-TEX certification guarantees the absence of unwanted substances in the fabric.
