Why does my shirt have a vinegar smell?

 

When your new tee or hoodie arrives, you may notice a faint vinegar-like scent or a light off-white residue. This is completely normal and part of the printing process.

Each piece is created using a direct-to-garment (DTG) method, where a gentle pre-treatment is applied to help the ink fully bond to the fabric. This ensures your design remains vibrant and lasting over time.

The scent and any slight residue are temporary and will disappear after the first wash, leaving you with a piece that’s soft, clean, and ready to wear.
