T-shirt PIT BULL PALMS graphite

Pitbull West Coast t-shirt Palms represents the special Summer Games collection and at the same time the series Medium Weight 170 Basic.

This is a typically holiday design with a large company logo printed on the front against a backdrop of exotic palms.

The t-shirt is made of high-grade cotton, resistant to losing its shape and hard-wearing. It also has a good fabric weight (170 gsm) and a silk binding at the neck, protecting the skin from chafing. Jacquard brand labels are sewn in at the hem and on the sleeve.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (Q&A):

✅ What fabric are Pitbull t-shirts made of? 

As standard, Pit Bull West Coast t-shirts are made of 100% high-grade cotton and this applies to most of this brand's most popular product series. Some t-shirts may contain a blend of technically advanced synthetic fibres with a specific job to do - in other words, responsible for particular properties of a given t-shirt. The marking spandex means that, besides cotton, the t-shirt also contains a small blend of spandex (usually 5%), also known as elastane or lycra. It is a polyurethane fibre famous for its exceptional stretch and resistance to being pulled out of shape. It can stretch a very long way and then return to its original shape without any trouble. Pit Bull t-shirts with added spandex are therefore highly stretchy, which is why the company uses it above all in close-fitting products - slim fit. The stretch means that such t-shirts and tank tops sit well on any figure, not only a typically athletic one. Besides cotton, some t-shirts also contain a substantial (about 30%) blend of sorona, which makes the fabric very soft, stretchy and durable. The thinnest of Pit Bull's summer t-shirts may contain a blend of polyester in the form of a fabric with COOLMAX®, which instantly absorbs sweat from the skin and carries it through channels to the outside of the fabric, where it evaporates quickly.

Of course, in the description and specification of every product at Sklep TMK you will find information on what fabric it is made of. The composition of Pit Bull t-shirts you can also recognise easily by the name of the series it represents, which you can read about below.  

✅ What do the Pit Bull t-shirt series mean? How do you read their markings?

Every Pit Bull West Coast t-shirt represents not only a given collection, such as spring-summer, but also a specific product series with its own particular features. The name of the series tells you, concisely and clearly, what fabric, thickness and cut a given t-shirt has. The number in the series name is the fabric weight of the product (gsm) - in plain terms the weight and "thickness" of the fabric, given in g/m2 (grams per square metre). It is 120-140 for very light t-shirts (Light Weight), 160-170 for standard ones (Medium Weight), 190 for thick t-shirts and 210 for the thickest ones (Heavy Weight). The marking Regular denotes a series of t-shirts with a street character, usually with large, bold prints of the kind that defined Pit Bull's style in the first decades of its existence. The largest series today, in turn, Basic denotes simple t-shirts - with smaller prints, classic logos, or outright minimalist. The vast majority of the t-shirts have a regular cut and are made of pure, high-grade cotton. The additional series marking Slim Fit Spandex denotes a t-shirt in a close-fitting cut, made of a fabric containing a blend of modern spandex fibres, which improve stretch, fit to the body and moisture management. Finally, the marking Washed denotes a fabric with a deliberate washed or aged effect (for example Denim Washed, Garment Washed). 
  

✅ How do I choose the right size? 

At Sklep TMK we measure the clothing ourselves before putting it up for sale, which is why the measurements given in our tables may differ slightly from the manufacturer's figures. The values we give are the measurements of the product laid flat, not of a person! That is why it is best to compare them with your "old" piece of clothing, also laid flat on a table or the floor. Just check in our size table whether the length of a given product is measured from the neck or from the shoulder. The circumference is always measured at chest height. Deviations of about 1-2 cm are possible, because most products are stretchy.

✅ How do you wash a Pit Bull t-shirt so that it keeps its look?

We recommend washing the t-shirt inside out at up to 30°C, without using strong bleach. Do not iron directly over the prints and do not tumble dry unless the manufacturer allows it. Following the instructions on the label will keep the colour, the fit and the durability of the prints for a long time.
