Heavy-Wash vs Regular Cotton Tee — What’s the Real Difference?
When buying a T-shirt, most people overlook one key detail: the fabric weight and the finishing process.
Advantages of a Heavy-Wash Tee:
- 230g+ cotton gives the tee a more structured silhouette
- High-temperature wash + vintage fading creates richer, more premium colors
- Softer handfeel, more comfortable to wear
- Gets more “vintage-looking” the longer you wear it
Common Issues with Regular Cotton Tees:
- Lose shape after a few washes
- Prints crack easily
- Thin fabric, lacking style
A Vintage-Wash Tee is simply “the shirt that looks better the more you wear it.”
