What this women's T-shirt is like
It is a Bella + Canvas 6400, the women's pattern from the same house as the unisex and with the same weight of 142 gsm. The fabric depends on the colour: in black, navy and white it is combed, ring-spun cotton; the anthracite is a heather and carries 52% cotton and 48% polyester, which is what gives it that speckled grey. What changes from the unisex is the cut: crew neck, narrower shoulder, side seam and a length meant to stop at the hip. It is a relaxed cut, not a fitted one; if you want it to hug, take one size down.
Read more about this women's t-shirt
The print goes straight onto the garment with water-based inks, on pre-washed fabric, exactly as on the unisex one. What is not the same is the canvas: the cut is shorter and narrower, so the same drawing takes up proportionally more chest and reads bigger than it does on the unisex T-shirt of the same design.
Inside out, at 30 °C, no bleach, and keep the iron off the print. It runs from S to 2XL. It is a fine 142 gsm knit, so in white and in light colours count on it being slightly sheer. The measurements in the table below are those of this garment laid flat, not those of the unisex pattern: the other one's do not apply.

The drawing on «Polifemo»
The cyclops' head seen head on: a single eye under a brow ridge running from temple to temple, matted locks in wedges over the forehead, a broad nose and a beard resolved into parallel strands.
Where this drawing comes from
The eye sits centred over the bridge of the nose, not in the middle of the forehead. That is how the Greeks painted it, and it is what separates a cyclops from a cartoon monster.
The women's pattern is shorter in the chest and the head takes up proportionally more room: here Polyphemus reads large, almost point-blank. If you liked it on the unisex and wanted it more contained, this one is not that; what it gives is the opposite, a face that fills the whole front.
«Odyssey», book IX. The face follows the iconographic type of the cyclops in archaic Greek pottery —the Proto-Attic skyphos from Eleusis, c. 670 BC, and the Aristonothos amphora—, where the eye sits centred over the bridge of the nose and the beard is arranged in locks.
Sizes: measurements, where each one is made and what it costs
Measurements of the garment, not of your body. Take one that fits you the way you like, lay it flat and measure: the width from seam to seam below the sleeve, and the length from the highest point of the shoulder down to the hem. These are the ones the factory itself publishes, in centimetres.
| Size | Length | Width | Made in | Price |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| S | 64,1 | 47 | Spain | 33.95 € |
| M | 66 | 50,8 | Spain | 33.95 € |
| L | 68 | 55,9 | Spain | 33.95 € |
| XL | 69,8 | 61 | Spain | 33.95 € |
| 2XL | 71,8 | 66 | Spain | 35.95 € |
Manufacturing tolerance: ±2 cm, as with any cotton garment.
Sizes 2XL cost more because they use more fabric and the factory charges us more for them: we would rather say so here and stock them than not have them. The regular sizes all cost the same.
«Made in» comes from the warehouse Printful declares for that exact size, not from an estimate of ours.
