We will not charge any additional shipping, and our team will let you know of the split shipping to provide tracking information.

How do your shirts fit? 

They fit great! Our tees are cut for a youthful shape. Most of our garments fit a little snug to flatter almost any body type. If you're not sure what size to get or if you're in-between sizes, we recommend you purchase one size up. Our awesome staff members are happy to answer any questions you might have on sizing, fit, available inventory, and more while you shop! 

Do you carry sizes larger than 3X?

We understand that people come in all shapes and sizes.  In our brick-and-mortar shops we carry most of our Men’s/Unisex items up to 3X (Crocker Park carries up to 2X due to limited storage). We have added sizes 4X and 5X in our top sellers in Men’s/Unisex Tees and Hoodies available for purchase on our website. If you find a shirt you love but can’t find your size, our staff would love to help you! 

Will my new shirts shrink after I wash them?

We print our designs on a variety of materials ranging from 100% Cotton, 50/50 polyester/cotton blend and 50/25/25 (50% Polyester / 25% Cotton / 25% Rayon) construction.  We do not offer pre-shrunk items. We recommend washing in cool water and hang dry, but that is not necessary, tumble dry on low will help prevent shrinkage.

Where is your glassware from?

All of our glassware is PRINTED in the USA and most of it is MADE in the USA as well - you can find additional information in each product description. For glassware not made in the USA we work with a California-based supplier that ensures that all of their products are safe and compliant, they rigorously test their items to the highest standards to exceed the requirements of FDA, CPSIA, Cal Prop 65 and other regulations applicable to drinkware.
