FAQs
Answers to the questions we hear most. If yours isn't below, drop us a line and get in touch.
Sizing & Fit
How do your sizes run?
Our t-shirts are oversized/boxy, true to a modern streetwear cut. Shorts run true to size, with the Retro shorts being cut tight and short. Every product page has a full size chart with measurements in cm and inches. If you're between sizes and prefer a looser fit, size up.
What size is the model wearing?
The model wears size L, is 5ft 7" (170 cm), 13.5 stone (86 kg). Each product page shows the model's stats so you can calibrate against your own build.
Where can I find the full size guide?
Full measurements sit on every product page under "Size Chart," and there's a consolidated size guide linked in the footer.

Can I exchange for a different size?

Who pays for return shipping?
Return shipping is at the customer's expense unless the item is faulty or the wrong item was sent. In those cases, please contact us first and we'll cover it.
Product Care
How do I wash my BIG gear?
Cold wash, inside out, with similar colours. Air dry to keep prints crisp and prevent shrinkage. Avoid ironing directly onto printed graphics.
Will the print fade over time?
Not if you look after it. Cold wash, inside out, and air dry. That's the trick. Prints on our tees are built to last hundreds of washes if treated properly.
Orders & Payment
What payment methods do you accept?
All major cards (Visa, Mastercard, Amex), Shop Pay, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and Klarna for pay-in-three instalments on orders over £50.
Can I use more than one discount code?
Only one discount code per order. Our automatic promotions (like the current free towel with shorts) apply on top of eligible codes though. No need to enter anything.
I haven't received my order confirmation email, what should I do?
Check your spam/junk folder first. If it's not there, contact us with the email you used at checkout and we'll re-send it.

What does Before I Go mean?

Who writes the poems on your garments?
