FAQs
Q: How is the fit of the Premium Heavy T-shirt different from the Core Boxy Tee? A: While the Core Boxy Tee (MBT01) features an exaggerated, oversized streetwear silhouette with dropped shoulders, the Premium Heavy Tee offers a more classic, relaxed unisex fit. It drapes naturally against the body rather than hanging boxy, giving you a clean, upscale streetwear aesthetic without the extra-baggy proportions.
Q: What makes 240gsm cotton "premium"? A: GSM stands for grams per square meter. At 240gsm, this fabric is significantly heavier than standard t-shirts, giving it a substantial, high-end feel. Because it is combed to remove shorter fibers and impurities, the result is a remarkably smooth, soft-to-the-touch finish that feels incredibly luxurious on the skin.
Q: Does the heavier weight make this shirt better for printing and embroidery? A: Absolutely. The robust 240gsm fabric acts as an incredibly stable canvas that won't warp, pucker, or stretch under heavy ink layers or dense embroidery stitch counts. It is the absolute gold standard for premium streetwear brands looking for high-definition retail-ready prints.
