What this T-shirt is like

It is a Gildan 64000 Softstyle in ring-spun cotton, 150 gsm. A touch more body than the premium one and a slightly less fine hand, because the yarn is not combed: this is the everyday T-shirt, the one that goes in the wash every week without a second thought. Straight unisex cut, with shoulder-to-shoulder taping.

Read more about this t-shirt

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.

Inside out, at 30 °C, no bleach, and never iron over the print.

The drawing on «Reader, I married him»

An open book with the wedding ring laid on the right-hand page, on top of the lines that surround it. Reading and marrying, both things in the same drawing.

Where this drawing comes from

The ring sits on top of the text, covering lines. The sentence is said to the reader and not to the character: the novel has spent four hundred pages talking straight to you.

A ring on top of a text, covering lines: on the chest the block of type acts as background and the circle is the only thing that reads from a distance. It is the most literary design in the catalogue and the one that most rewards coming closer, because until you are a metre away you cannot see that what is covered are words.

Charlotte Brontë, «Jane Eyre. An Autobiography» (Smith, Elder & Co., 1847), chapter XXXVIII, which opens with «Reader, I married him». The novel speaks to the reader in the second person from the very first chapter, and that line is where the device closes.

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.

Measurements in centimetres, where it is made and the price of each size
Size LengthWidth Made in Price
S 71,1 45,7 Spain 23.95 €
M 73,7 50,8 Spain 23.95 €
L 76,2 55,9 Spain 23.95 €
XL 78,7 61 Spain 23.95 €
2XL 81,3 66 Spain 25.95 €
3XL 83,8 71,1 Spain 23.95 €

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.

What you ask us before buying

Who is being spoken to?
To the reader, not to the character. The novel has spent four hundred pages talking straight to you, and in that line it says it to your face. That is why the ring sits on top of the text, covering lines: it comes in front of what you were reading.
How is it different from the premium one?
In the yarn and in the weight. This one is a Gildan 64000 at 150 gsm with ring-spun cotton; the premium one is a Bella + Canvas 3001 at 142 gsm with COMBED cotton, which is one finishing step more and gives a finer, smoother fabric. This one has more body and costs nine euros less; that one drapes better and you can feel it. Both carry the same drawing and are printed the same way.
How does it run?
Straight cut and unisex. If you are torn between two sizes and want it loose, take the bigger one. The size chart further down is the manufacturer's, not an estimate of ours.
How long does it really take?
3 to 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.
Why do some sizes cost more?
Because they use more fabric and the factory charges us more. We would rather stock the large sizes and say so in the table than not have them. The regular sizes all cost the same.
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.
Where does the drawing on «Reader, I married him»?
Charlotte Brontë, «Jane Eyre. An Autobiography» (Smith, Elder & Co., 1847), chapter XXXVIII, which opens with «Reader, I married him». The novel speaks to the reader in the second person from the very first chapter, and that line is where the device closes. It is in the public domain: the drawing is ours, the material it starts from belongs to everyone.

How to get it right without trying it on: take a garment of yours of the same kind that fits you the way you like, lay it flat and measure the width from armpit to armpit, and the length from shoulder to hem. Find the closest size in the table. It is more reliable than your usual size, which changes with every brand.
