Frequently Asked
What is single-stitch construction?
Single-stitch refers to one line of stitching on the hem and collar, common in vintage tees. It has a distinct look and different drape than modern double-stitch.
How do I know if a tee is truly heavyweight?
Ask for GSM. 200-240 is standard, 260+ is entering heavyweight territory. Fabric weight alone doesn't guarantee quality, but it's a useful starting metric.
