Cole Buxton Oversized T-Shirt - Black - S

280gsm (grams per square meter) refers to the fabric's density. A higher GSM indicates a thicker, more substantial, and often more durable fabric, contributing to a premium feel and better drape.

The oversized fit is intentionally designed to be larger than a standard fit, with dropped shoulders and a looser body. It's meant to sit away from the body for a relaxed silhouette, unlike a standard fit which follows the body's natural contours more closely.

Due to its 280gsm weight, it's well-suited for cooler weather or as a layering piece. In very hot climates, it might feel warmer than a lightweight t-shirt, but it remains comfortable for general casual wear year-round.

The 'oversized' fit is intentional. Consider your personal preference: if you typically prefer a more standard or fitted look, sizing down might be suitable. However, for the intended relaxed and amplified aesthetic, stick to your usual size.

Garment washing is a process applied after the t-shirt has been constructed. It softens the fabric, can pre-shrink the garment to ensure a consistent fit after subsequent washes, and gives it a slightly lived-in feel from the first wear.

With proper care—washing inside out in cold water, using mild detergent, and avoiding high heat drying or direct ironing on the print—the graphic is designed to maintain its integrity.

Ensure you followed the cold wash and low heat/hang dry instructions. If the garment was washed on a hot cycle or dried on high heat, some shrinkage may occur. Allow the garment to air dry completely.

This can result from washing in hot water, using harsh detergents, or direct ironing on the print. Always wash inside out in cold water, use mild detergent, and avoid ironing directly on the graphic.

Avoid excessive stretching of the neckline. Ensure the t-shirt is not pulled forcefully over the head. Lay flat to dry rather than hanging, which can cause the collar to stretch over time.
