FAQs
Q: What makes a raglan sleeve different from a standard t-shirt sleeve?
A: Standard sleeves have a seam that sits right on the top of the shoulder bone. A raglan sleeve extends in one continuous piece from the collar down to the armpit. This creates a sporty two-tone look while giving children extra shoulder flexibility and freedom of movement during active play.
Q: Will the contrasting colors bleed into the main body in the wash?
A: No. We utilize high-grade, color-fast cotton yarns across all our solid and melange fabrics. Washing the garment in cold water inside out will preserve the crisp contrast between the torso and the raglan sleeves.
Q: How does the sizing compare to our adult baseball top range?
A: The KRT01S is patterned specifically for kids (ages 1-2 up to 13-14) using the exact same contrast color block style as our adult range. This makes it effortless to build matching parent-child collections, youth team uniforms, or family lifestyle apparel lines.
