Product & Quality

  • What materials do you use?
  • Our hoodies and crewneck sweatshirts are made with 80% organic ring-spun combed cotton and 20% recycled polyester. Our T-shirts are made from 100% organic combed ring-spun cotton.
  • What is the backing inside embroidered items?
  • The backing is a stabilizer used during embroidery to ensure durability and clean stitching. It softens over time and can be gently trimmed if excess material remains.
  • What should I do about the black fabric inside my embroidered item?
  • You should generally not remove the black backing entirely, but oftentimes you can simply tear off the excess and leave only the embroidery thread. Other options...
  • ● Option 1: Leave it completely alone - The safest approach is to do nothing, especially if the backing isn't causing a problem. The material will soften over time after a few washes.
  • ● Option 2: Trim the excess backing - If there is a lot of excess material, you can trim it. Use a small, sharp pair of scissors to carefully cut the excess stabilizer, leaving a small border of about 1/4 inch around the edge of the stitching. To avoid accidentally cutting the garment, hold the backing and let the garment fall away from the scissors.
  • How do you verify your claim that you produce quality apparel?
  • Our supplies conduct durability tests on all products we sell to ensure they’ll stand the test of time. We also select suppliers with high-quality products that last many washes, keeping print colors vibrant and the fabric soft.
  • Are your T-Shirts preshrunk?
  • Yes, our T-shirts are preshrunk. Preshrinking is an important step in our process because it prevents significant shrinkage after purchase, ensuring a reliable and consistent fit over time. It also makes our T-Shirts more durable by stabilizing the fabric's fibers before it's made into a garment, preshrinking improves the overall durability of the t-shirt.
  • What is Embroidery material made of?
  • We embroider our products with 100% recycled polyester threads. These threads are also Oeko-TexTM certified, meaning they’re safe for both adult and children’s clothing. Embroidery is generally more durable and produces less waste, as there’s no ink residue.
  • How do I care for my clothing?
  • We recommend washing garments inside out in cold water on a gentle cycle with similar colors. Avoid fabric softeners and bleach. Hang-dry or tumble-dry on low. Iron inside out on a cool setting, avoiding printed areas.
  • How do I pick the right size?
  • Each product page includes a size guide to help you select the best fit.

Brand & Mission

  • What inspired your designs?
  • Our designs are inspired by the truth that you don't need to shout to be seen—your authentic self is powerful enough. This belief shapes every choice we make.
  • We create minimalist aesthetics because true beauty doesn't need embellishment. We choose organic materials to honor the earth that sustains us. We carefully select affirmations that bridge the gap between what you wear and who you want to show up as. Most of all, we're inspired by the courage it takes to choose consciousness over convenience, quality over quantity, and self-love over self-criticism. Every piece reflects these values, creating clothing that serves your transformation, not your insecurities.
  • What is the meaning behind “And So Are You...”?
  • We hope you noticed that our affirmations are usually accompanied by this small reminder that everyone around you is a reflection of yourself. Oftentimes it's easier to acknowledge the qualities in others that you desire to see in yourself. “And So Are You” is a gentle reminder that your light doesn’t need to dim others.

This allows us to avoid overproduction and textile waste, and we’re continuously working toward more sustainable production.
  • We use environmentally friendly materials wherever we can, from our package inserts to our packing. We carefully selected recycled paper and paper stocks from sustainable sources, vegetable-based inks and use manufactures that recycle all waste products).
  • How do you verify your recycled fabric Eco-Friendly claims?
  • We verify recycled material content by collecting valid certificates from our suppliers. We accept both GRS and RCS certificates.
  • Recycled Content must be certified by:
  • ● GRS (Global Recycled Standard): This standard is for products containing recycled materials. It verifies the recycled content and tracks it through the supply chain, also addressing environmental and social criteria in the processing of the recycled material.
  • ● RCS (Recycled Claim Standard): Similar to GRS, RCS also verifies the presence and amount of recycled material in a product but has fewer environmental and social requirements compared to GRS.
