Cole Buxton Oversized T-Shirt - Black - M

GSM stands for 'grams per square meter,' a unit of measurement for fabric weight. 280gsm indicates a heavier, more substantial cotton fabric compared to standard t-shirts, offering greater durability and a premium feel.

The oversized fit features a looser cut through the body and shoulders, designed to sit away from the body for a relaxed silhouette. A regular fit is more standard and closer to the body.

While made of 100% cotton, the 280gsm weight makes it a heavier fabric. It is breathable but may be warmer than lighter-weight t-shirts, making it more suited for moderate or cooler temperatures, or for specific styling choices.

The t-shirt is pre-shrunk and garment washed to minimize shrinkage. Following the recommended cold wash and low heat/hang dry care instructions will help maintain its original size and shape.

Garment washing involves washing the finished garment before it is sold. This process softens the fabric, gives it a slightly lived-in feel from the first wear, and helps stabilize the size and color, reducing further changes after subsequent washes.

The t-shirt's design is rooted in sportswear codes, and its oversized fit allows for movement. However, the 280gsm fabric weight and 100% cotton composition mean it is best suited for casual wear or light activities rather than intense athletic training where moisture-wicking properties are preferred.

This is unlikely due to the garment wash finish. If it occurs, try tumble drying on a low setting with a couple of dryer balls to soften the fabric.

Avoid direct ironing on the print. Ensure washing and drying instructions are followed, particularly using cold water and low heat for drying.

While the t-shirt is pre-shrunk, excessive heat during washing or drying can still cause minor shrinkage. Stick to cold washes and low/no heat drying.

Ensure the t-shirt is not over-dried in a machine dryer. Lay flat or hang to dry. Reshape the collar gently while damp if needed.
