FAQs

What material is the hoodie made from?

The hoodie is crafted from 100% Cotton, specifically a heavyweight (500gsm) brushed back fleece.

What does '500gsm' mean?

GSM stands for 'Grams per Square Meter'. A 500gsm fabric weight indicates a very thick, dense, and heavy material, contributing to the hoodie's warmth and premium feel.

How should I determine my size?

The hoodie features an oversized and boxy fit with a super cropped body. Refer to the model measurements (188cm and 75kg wearing size M) and consider your preferred level of oversized fit. If you are between sizes or prefer a less cropped look, you might consider sizing up, though the design is intentionally wide and short.

Can I put this hoodie in the dryer?

It is recommended to tumble dry on low heat or, ideally, hang dry to maintain the fit and prevent shrinkage or damage to the fleece. High heat can cause the cotton to shrink and affect the fabric's texture.

How do I care for the embroidered detail and metal bar?

Wash the hoodie inside out on a cold cycle. Avoid ironing directly on these details. When ironing is necessary, use a low setting on the reverse side of the fabric.

What is the fit of this hoodie?

The fit is described as oversized and boxy, with a super cropped body length. It has dropped shoulders and wide sleeves.

What are the pockets like?

The hoodie features side seam welt pockets, which are integrated smoothly into the side of the garment.

Troubleshooting

Pilling or fuzz on the fleece

This can occur with wear and washing. Wash inside out with similar colors on a cold setting. Avoid high heat drying; opt for air drying. A fabric shaver can gently remove small pills.

Hoodie appears to have shrunk

Avoid high heat in the washing machine or dryer. If shrinkage has occurred, try stretching the fabric gently while damp or steaming it. Future washes should use cold water and low/no heat drying.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move

Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to move the zipper up and down. Applying a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth can help.
