The Reality of Shipping (Read This Before You Complain)
Look, we know you’re used to massive e-commerce empires delivering your packages via teleporters within twelve minutes of ordering. We don’t do that. We make custom apparel on demand, which means your shirt doesn’t even exist until you type in your credit card number.
Here is exactly how shipping works around here, laid out transparently so you don’t have to flood our customer service inbox in 48 hours wondering where your order is.

Before Production: We hold orders for at least 24 hours before manually releasing them to our production partners. Consider it a brief cooling-off period for your enthusiastic clicking finger. Changed your mind? You have 24 hours after placing your order to submit a cancellation request through your customer account. That skips the unnecessary email ping-pong and saves your time and ours, because neither of us needs a six-message correspondence about a t-shirt. We review cancellation requests; submitting one does not automatically cancel your order. Production does not necessarily begin exactly 24 hours after checkout. Please allow for this hold in addition to the production and transit estimates below.

Separate Packages: Items in your order may be made and shipped by different production partners. They may arrive in separate packages on different days, with tracking provided for each shipment when available.

The Base Rates:
  • Shipping Cost: Shipping is calculated at checkout.
  • The Golden Ticket: Free standard shipping on orders of US$75 or more to Canada and the United States. We suggest adding that extra shirt you were on the fence about instead of handing your hard-earned cash over to a mail carrier.
  • How Long Will It Actually Take?
    • Fulfillment (2–5 Business Days): Because we use specialized print-on-demand printing networks to craft each item manually, it takes a few days to print, cure, pack, and label your garment.
    • Transit (3–7 Business Days): Once the shipping carrier physically wrenches your package out of our production facility's hands, it usually takes about a week to arrive at your doorstep.
    • The Grand Total: After your order is released to production, expect roughly 5 to 12 business days for production and delivery, in addition to the initial hold described above. If you need a shirt for a birthday party this weekend, you should have ordered it two weeks ago.
    Tracking and Lost Packages:
    Every single order comes with tracking. The second your shipping label is printed, a tracking number will be sent straight to your email. If the tracking says your package was delivered but you don't see it, go look behind your bushes or ask your neighbor if they stole it before you email us. Once a package leaves our facility, we are at the mercy of the postal system just like you are.
