You’re a not-so-secret agent for change. To the question “Do you think you can change the world?”, you reply: “How soon can we start?”

To you, anything is possible. (Invisible cape included with purchase.)

Definitely not fast fashion. Minimalist, gender-neutral designs on stain-hiding, made-to-last tees decrease cost-per-wear, making it easier to “Buy less, but better.”

Writing great stories. Each Character Tee is sewn by our fair trade certified partner JOYYA, in Kolkata India. Above and beyond honourable jobs, JOYYA provides a supportive community and life-changing resources for courageous women living in Sonagachi.  Meet Our Makers.

Not sure what size to order?

illustration of how to measure chest and length of a t-shirt to choose correct sizing

Simply measure against a similar item that currently fits your child and compare with the measurements in our size chart.

All measurements are taken with garments lying flat.

Lay the chosen garment on a flat surface, smooth out any wrinkles.

Chest: Measure across chest from side seam to side seam just below the armpit.

Length: Measure from the point where the shoulder seam meets the neckline ribbing, straight down to the bottom of the shirt.

  

Children's T-shirts

Our children's t-shirts are a standard fit. If your child prefers loose-fitting shirts, we recommend choosing the next size up.

Author t-shirts are cut by hand and sewn in small batches in Kolkata, India by our friends at Joyya (formerly Freeset).

While there may be slight measurement variances between shirts, finished shirts are tested to ensure any differences are minor and will not affect fit.

Shrinkage
A new shirt can be expected to experience 3% shrinkage after normal washing and drying.

Wear + Care
To help your clothes (and our planet) enjoy a longer, better life, we recommend washing printed and dark items in cold water, hanging to dry or drying on a cool setting.
