What this premium T-shirt is like

It is a Bella + Canvas 3001 in combed, ring-spun cotton, 142 gsm. That is fine fabric: the T-shirt you wear on its own in summer and under something the rest of the year, the one that does not bulk up under a shirt. The cut is unisex and straight, with a side seam and shoulder-to-shoulder taping, which is what keeps the neck from going wavy after ten washes.

Read more about this camiseta premium

The drawing goes on one side only, on the chest, printed straight onto the fabric with water-based inks. It is not a vinyl stuck on top: you cannot feel it when you run your hand over it, it does not crackle when you fold it and it has no edge for it to start peeling from. In exchange the ink lives inside the cotton and ages with it, so after many washes it loses a shade of black, like any well-made printed T-shirt.

Inside out, at 30 °C, no bleach, and never iron over the print. Of the whole catalogue this is the piece that will go through the washing machine most often, and that is why it is the one that gains most from those three rules. Being a light fabric, it can be slightly sheer in white and in light colours: if you want more body, the same design is there on a sweatshirt.

The drawing on «El telar de Penélope»

A warp-weighted vertical loom: the two uprights, the top beam with the shroud already woven, the warp hanging from the shed rod, the clay weights keeping it taut and the shuttle lying across it with a loose thread. The thread that was undone at night.

Where this drawing comes from

What identifies the device is the clay weights hanging at the bottom: without them the warp is not taut and this would not be a Greek loom but a modern frame.

«Odyssey», books II and XIX: the cloth for Laertes, woven by day and unwoven in the dark for three years. The device is the vertical warp-weighted loom that Aegean archaeology documents, the same one painted on the Attic black-figure lekythos at the Metropolitan (c. 550-530 BC) attributed to the Amasis Painter, the most complete ancient depiction of a loom at work.

What you ask us before buying

What are the little weights hanging along the bottom?
Clay weights. It is a warp-weighted vertical loom, the one Aegean archaeology documents, and they are what keeps the warp taut. Without those weights the device would be neither Greek nor ancient: it would be a modern frame with threads hanging off it.
How does this T-shirt run?
It is a straight unisex cut, not fitted. If you like it snug, take your size; if you want it loose, go up one. The measurements in the table are of the garment laid flat, not of your body: the way to get it right is to measure a T-shirt of your own that already fits the way you want.
Does the print peel off?
There is nothing to peel off: the ink is printed straight onto the cotton, water-based, so there is no edge that can lift. What it does do over the years is lighten a touch. Washing it inside out at 30 °C is what holds that back most.
How long does it really take?
De 3 a 4 working days, printing and shipping included — the same lead time the rest of the site gives, because there is only one. The piece is made in the European Union, and that is where the lead time comes from. Above, over the button, you have the exact date for this one. The table below says where each size is made.
How much is shipping?
The page itself says so, above the button, before you pay and for whichever destination you pick in the dropdown. To Spain it is 4.29 €. The amount comes from the same rate the checkout charges, not from a separate list.
Can it be returned?
Yes. You have 14 days to withdraw without giving reasons — it is not a personalised product, so the right of withdrawal covers you — and 3 years of legal guarantee. If it arrives faulty or badly printed, we redo it or give you your money back. How it is made.
