    Product Story+

    A white cotton tee with charcoal shoulder paneling, contrast stitching and the circular Fall 2026 house lockup at the chest. The paneling follows the shoulder seam, marking the construction instead of decorating it.

    Materials+

    Cotton jersey with contrast paneling

    Made in small runs and checked against the house standard — seam, print placement, hardware and label — before it is packed and sent. We describe the cloth as it is; weight and handfeel are what you will receive.

    Care & Keeping+

    Made to be worn, not preserved. Cared for as directed below, cotton jersey with contrast paneling will hold its color, hand and line over time.

    • Machine wash cold, inside out
    • Hang dry
    • Do not bleach
    • Warm iron, avoid embroidery

    Wash less than you think. Airing between wears keeps the garment newer than laundering it does.

    • Cotton jersey with contrast paneling
    • Relaxed straight body
    • Charcoal shoulder and sleeve panels
    • Contrast stitch detail along the panel seams
    • Circular FALL 2026 chest lockup

    How should I size this piece?
    US standard sizing. Take your usual size. Size down only if you prefer a trim silhouette. Relaxed straight body. Take your usual size. The charts above give your body measurements and the garment laid flat, both to the half inch.
    Will the color or wash change over time?
    Washed and dyed pieces settle with wear. Follow the care notes and the change stays even — that softening is part of the garment, not a fault.
    When will it arrive?
    Checked against the house standard before dispatch. Sent within 5–7 business days. Flat USD 7 domestic shipping, 5–10 business days after dispatch. International arranged on request.
    Can I return or exchange it?

    Will this be made again?
    Runs are small and finite. When a piece closes, it is held in the record rather than reproduced.
