About this item:

This design was drawn and screen printed (silk screened) with pride by skilled illustrators and printers in Ann Arbor, Michigan. Customers are invited to stop by for a free tour and see how the apparel is made.

Unisex Modern Fit Sizing:

The shirt is slightly tapered, providing a less boxy fit than the old style of mass-market t-shirts. Most people wear the same size in these shirts as they do in their other clothing, but going one size larger is recommended if unsure. The shirt is pre-shrunk, but like any high-cotton product, it will still shrink slightly in the wash. The model photos feature the actual shirt on the sales representative, Rich, who is 6' 2", 200 lbs, and wearing a large.

Soft Fabrics:

This shirt is a combed and ringspun, 30/1 fine jersey knit on 100% cotton. It has a high thread-count, tight knit, and a soft, smooth feel. The fabric has been treated with a mineral wash for a vintage, faded effect. These are mid-weight shirts, lighter than mass-market, thick gym class t-shirts, but still substantial and not see-through. It's a nice balance between comfort and durability.

Top Quality Inks and Equipment:

The company uses QCM screen printing inks, manufactured in Pineville, North Carolina. These high-quality inks are vibrant, durable, and highly crack resistant. Some designs are intentionally faded or cracked, but the inks always perform as intended by the printers. The printers use top-of-the-line printing presses and ovens, made by M&R in Roselle, Illinois, to properly cure the inks.

Safe Chemistry:

QCM, the ink manufacturer, has been a leader in the industry, going phthalate-free over ten years ago, much earlier than the curve. Their inks are also CFC-free and rated as carcinogen-free by the state of California.
