MATERIAL

Comfort Colors 1717 — our premium tee

The fabric
A heavyweight 6.1 oz/yd² (207 g/m²) tee in 100% ring-spun US cotton, spun at 32 singles — finer yarn than our everyday tee, and more of it. No polyester, no blends. You feel the difference the moment you pick it up: this one has body. It hangs instead of clinging. Preshrunk and soft-washed, so it arrives already broken in rather than asking you to earn it.

Garment-dyed, which is the whole point
Most tees are made from fabric that was dyed first, then cut and sewn. This one is sewn first, then dropped into the dye as a finished shirt. That's slower, costs more, and it's why the colour sits in the cotton rather than on top of it — soft, slightly faded, the depth you normally only get from a shirt you've owned for a decade.

It also means no two are identical. Small variations in tone are how garment-dyeing works, not a fault.

How it's built
The body is knitted as one continuous tube — no side seams anywhere. Most heavy tees are cut from two panels and stitched down each side to force a shape. This one isn't shaped at all, and that's deliberate: the unstructured drape is exactly what makes an old t-shirt feel like an old t-shirt. Relaxed, roomy, slightly boxy. If you want it closer to the body, size down.

Twill-taped neck and shoulders, a 7/8" (2.2 cm) topstitched ribbed collar, double-needle stitching at the armholes, sleeves and hem. The heavy stuff is built heavy.

The tag stays in
Unlike our everyday tee, this one has a soft woven twill label sewn into the neck rather than a tear-away. It's flat and it's fabric, not plastic — but if you cut every tag out on principle, better you know before it arrives.

Where it comes from
US-grown cotton, sewn in the same family of OEKO-TEX certified, Fair Labor Association–partnered factories as the rest of our range, using low-impact dyes. Then it comes to us, and we print it after you order it. Never before. No warehouse, no unsold stock, no rush.

This is the heavy one — the one you keep. If you'd rather have light, easy and everyday, that's our other tee. Same art, different weight class.

WASHING INSTRUCTIONS

CARE

Turn it inside out before washing — the print will thank you. Cold water, gentle cycle, mild detergent. No bleach, ever.

Air dry if you can. If you're using a dryer, keep it low and don't throw it in with your heaviest stuff.

Treat it well and it'll last. That's the whole point.

SHIPPING & RETURNS

SHIPPING

Every tee is printed to order — no warehouse, no shortcuts, nothing sitting in a box waiting for someone to want it.

No customs charges. Nothing extra to pay when it lands, wherever you are.

Orders usually leave us within 3–4 working days. You'll get tracking the moment yours ships.

Shipping is calculated at checkout.

My name's not Jeff and this isn't Amazon — but it's worth the wait.

RETURNS

If something's not right, we'll sort it. No scripts, no runaround — email wecare@viricotton.com and a human answers.

If it's our fault — wrong item, a printing fault, damaged on the way — we fix it at our cost. Replacement or refund, your call. Don't pay to send anything back before you've spoken to us.

If you've changed your mind — if you're in the UK or the EU you have a legal right to cancel within 14 days of receiving your order, without giving a reason. You then have a further 14 days to send it back.

Two honest things about that. Return postage is at your own cost — we don't provide a prepaid label. And the shirt needs to come back unworn and unwashed; if it comes back in a state we couldn't reasonably resell, we may reduce the refund to reflect that.

We'll refund within 14 days of you telling us you're cancelling — including the standard delivery you originally paid — though we may hold off until the shirt is back with us, or you've shown us proof it's on its way.

To cancel, just email wecare@viricotton.com with your order number and tell us you're cancelling. That's enough. There's no form to fill in and no hoop to jump through.

Ordering from outside the UK and EU? We apply the same 14-day window as our own policy. We'd rather be consistent than clever.

If it goes wrong later — your statutory rights don't expire when the 14 days do. If a print cracks or a seam gives out in normal wear, tell us and we'll put it right.

Still not sure about something? Just ask — wecare@viricotton.com. I read every single one personally. No bots, no scripts.

100% satisfaction. That's not a policy — it's just how we do things.

WHY VIRI?

  • NOT FOR EVERYONE. INTENTIONALLY.

    Most tees blend in. That's fine — they're not for us either. Viri is for the ones who notice things others walk past. Who'd rather start a conversation than avoid one. Who wear their worldview without needing to explain it.

    It takes a certain kind of person to wear a certain kind of tee.

  • ART ON COTTON. NOTHING MORE, NOTHING LESS.

    No polyester. No blends. No hollow sustainability speech. Just 100% cotton and designs that actually mean something — made by people who care what goes on them. Every piece is printed when you order it. No warehouse. No waste. No rush.

    Worth the wait.

  • INDEPENDENT. STILL.

    No billion-dollar parent company. No trend forecasts. No algorithm telling us what to make next. Just two people making art-driven tees with grit, soul, and a quiet refusal to be boring. If it doesn't feel right, it doesn't get made.

    Deadpan with a pulse.

Cotton that holds its shape. Designs that hold their nerve. Every piece is printed when you order it — no warehouse, no waste, no cutting corners.

We're not chasing trends. We're making art for people who'd rather start a conversation than blend into one.

Sehr gute Grammatur des Shirts und der Print sieht auch sehr gut aus.

Bass Cat

Great quality, thick shirt and screen print. Wish I had ordered the XL instead of XXL. I will know better for next time.

Statement Made - Premium

Should consider changing your tag line from "wear weird" to "guarantee a convo". Wore Octopus Knight into a bar. From halfway across the room, a bartender shouts "I love your shirt", runs over and proceeds to show me the octopus tattoo down her left arm. Next day, wore Black Lab to a HS Vball game, where my daughter cheers and she's like "where did you get that"; only to have the rest of her cheer line say some version of "OMG, I love your shirt". So yea, you're going to get noticed

Shirt was great! Length was right, fit was good, sleeves could have been slightly more tight.

I love the last laugh. It’s a good T-shirt for anytime of the year not only Halloween. I love when you do two tone colors but when you do full on color, you rock it. Received it last week and have already worn it twice. That should tell you how much I love it.

I love the shirt and I love the print. The print on the shirt is very well proportioned with the shirt and has a high level of detail. I got the premium shirt and it was worth it. It is very soft on my skin and I love wearing it!

Dream Beyond Limitations - Premium

I am that crazy cat lady and I work as a personal trainer at a private gym so my work friends love the clean and jerk kitten. I don't know if you are planning on putting this print on a lighter color tee shirt but if you do I am getting another one.

FAQs

Will I be charged customs or import fees?

No. Every tee is printed to order and sent to you with no customs charges — nothing extra to pay when it arrives, wherever you are.

How long will it take to get my tees?

Every tee is printed to order — no warehouse, no shortcuts. Orders usually leave us within 3–4 working days, and you'll get tracking as soon as yours does. How long it takes after that depends where you are. Shipping is calculated at checkout.

How do I return or replace something?

If something's not right, we'll sort it — email wecare@viricotton.com and a human answers.

If it's our mistake, we cover everything. If you've simply changed your mind and you're in the UK or EU, you can cancel within 14 days of delivery without giving a reason, then send it back within another 14 days — return postage is at your own cost, as we don't provide a prepaid label. Send it back unworn and unwashed and we'll refund within 14 days, including the standard delivery you paid.

Full detail is on our Shipping & Returns page. Or just ask.

What size should I get?

Sizing can be tricky — so we've put a size guide at the top of every product page with exact shirt measurements, in inches and centimetres. No guessing, no surprises.

Based on customer feedback, if you're after a more relaxed or oversized fit, size up.

Still unsure? Drop us an email at wecare@viricotton.com — we're happy to help you find the right fit.

What's the difference between Everyday and Premium tees?

Both are 100% cotton. Both are worth wearing. The difference is in the feel.

Everyday tees are printed on Gildan Softstyle — lightweight, smooth, and built for daily wear. Soft ring-spun cotton, modern classic fit, comfortable from the first wear.

Premium tees are printed on Comfort Colors 1717 — heavier, garment-dyed for that broken-in feel straight out of the bag. Rich colours, relaxed fit, and barely any shrinkage. The kind of tee that gets better with every wash.

Neither is wrong. It just depends on what you're after.

Still got questions?
