Caring for the blend. The organic cotton and TENCEL™ blend likes it gentle. Cold water and a low or line dry keep it soft and holding its shape, and skipping bleach and softener protects the fibers. We left out chemical wrinkle finishes, so a low iron or a quick smooth out of the dryer is all it needs. In warm climates these get worn hard and washed often, and gentle care is what keeps them looking new.
A grandmother's tip: for a fresh stain, cold water and a little sun go a long way before anything stronger.

Finding your size
The quick way, order by age. Between sizes? Size up. Organic cotton softens beautifully with washing.
| Size | Age | Chest | Length |
|---|---|---|---|
| XXS | 3-4 | 12.5" | 15.5" |
| XS | 4-5 | 13.5" | 16.5" |
| S | 6-7 | 14.5" | 17.5" |
| M | 8-9 | 15.5" | 19" |
| L | 10-12 | 16.5" | 20" |
| XL | 14-16 | 17.5" | 21.5" |
The sure way, measure a shirt that fits. Lay it flat: chest armpit to armpit, length shoulder seam to hem.
On our labels
Most brands add several labels to a garment: brand, size, content, care, and country of origin. Each one adds a little stiffness and a little to irritate against the skin.
We print our brand and product content directly onto the garment, so there is no brand tag at all. The care label and the import-detail tag are both designed to tear away easily, so your child can have fully tagless comfort whenever you prefer.
The result is a garment that puts as little as possible between your child's skin and the fabric.
- Brand and content printed directly on the garment, no brand tag
- Care and import tags tear away easily for tagless comfort
