What if you don't have something left in stock? When will you make more?
✄ If an item is out of stock, please reach out to us via the contact form below and ask us when it will be back. Often we will have some more ready to be printed and can adjust the listing very quickly to enable you to purchase.
✄ We can also offer to print a design on a similar tee if there's one that is completely out of stock at the time.
I can't tell what size will fit me best. Can you help?
✄ We totally can! Some of our tee's fit differently to others, so we know it can be confusing. Just send us a quick note saying what tees you are interested in, and your chest measurement or body type, and we'll do our best to guide you in the right direction so that you are truly happy with your new tees!
Will the shirts shrink in the wash?
✄ Most of our tees are preshrunk, and will not shrink with normal machine washing in cold water, and regular dryer.
The only tees that will shrink with the first wash are the 100% Organic Cotton ones, and we encourage you to order a size up for these to account for the shrinkage. If your organic cotton tee does shrink once washed, we cannot exchange or refund it, so please account for the shrinkage when placing your order.
How Sustainable is your company?
✄ We aim to make Kindred Coast as sustainable as we can. We use sustainable fabrics such as organic cotton, recycled water bottles, bamboo, hemp and Tencel lyocell to make our clothing, and choosing to support fair labour here in Canada. We print our designs with eco friendly water based inks, and reuse packaging materials when shipping orders. We don't pack your orders in plastic, rather in recycled paper mailers. We know that it's a work in progress, and are always looking for more ways to improve and do our part.
Thank you for your support and understanding as we grow!
