Heavy, on purpose.

Pick up most tees and you can read the room through them. That's not an accident either — it's a spec. The average t-shirt today is built between 4 and 5.5 ounces of fabric per square yard, roughly 130 to 180 GSM. Lighter cloth is cheaper to buy, cheaper to ship, and easier to print badly on.

Ours start where that range ends.

The tees in NO LOWER are 7.5 ounces — 245 to 255 GSM. The hoodies are 10 ounces, 339 to 340 GSM, a 60/40 cotton-poly fleece with a boxy, drop-shoulder cut. The embroidered Forest hoodie is 8.5 ounces at 288 GSM. Those numbers are on every product page, next to the price, because the weight is most of what you're paying for.

GSM — grams per square meter — is simply how much fabric is actually there. More fabric means a garment that drapes instead of clinging, holds its shape at the collar and cuff, takes a print on a stable surface, and survives the wash without going thin at the stress points. It also means a heavier parcel and a higher blank cost. We chose it anyway. Light feels cheap, and cheap is below the line.

Two honest notes. First: heavy is not the same as indestructible — care instructions are on every piece, and following them is the difference between a five-year hoodie and a two-year one. Second: fits differ across the line — the Forest hoodie is a classic fit where the others are boxy. The size guide gives real measurements for every blank, in plain words, before you buy. Specs are only a standard if they're stated where they can be checked.

Heavy, on purpose. The purpose is the point.
