Because taking care of t-shirts is possible
So yes, dear reader, making the tee shirts you buy last longer, is also in your hands. We put effort into the shirts so the printing is excellent and that the material is of good quality and has no defects, of course there's always the one that comes out a little strange, but, once you have bought a shirt, the amount of time it lasts will depend on the care you put into it. We though it would be a good idea to write something about this and give a few pointers that can help you out, weather its with our tee shirts or any others.
Firstly, when you buy a t-shirt, it's always a good idea to wash it the first time on its own, by hand, in cold water, inside out. Why? For two reasons: as they're cotton, regardless of what many people may say, it will shrink, even if it's only by a millimeter or so. This way, the shrinking business will be minimal. Also, for whatever reason, if the printing on the shirt hasn't been done correctly. This may happen once every thousand pieces, and god forbid it happen to you. If it does, however, contact us and we'll change it ;] In subsequent washings, it is imperative that you ALWAYS place it in the washing machine inside out. This will help protect the silk screen printing and lasts much longer.
And when ironing, for goodness sake, do it at the adequate temperature for cotton, and again, inside out. If you use the "Vaporetta de la mamma" over the print, it's likely that you'll not only ruin the picture, but you'll have a nice ink splotch on your iron. How nice!

Oh, and of course, if one day you decide to go to the beach, get in the water, roll about in the sand and sun bate for 5 hours straight, all without taking off your shirt, don't expect it to last more than a day. Yes, man has managed to get to the Moon, but it seems like he's not so interested in making his clothes last ;]
