"Cheetah Smiley" Vintage-Wash Graphic Tee

Stay wild, but keep it classic. Our "Cheetah Smiley" Graphic Tee features a retro-inspired smiley face with a bold cheetah print fill, set against a dreamy Faded Cream backdrop. Printed on a premium American Apparel 1301GD base, this tee offers a sturdy, high-quality feel with a vintage aesthetic that looks like a rare thrift find.

The Quality Details

• Premium American Apparel Base: 6 oz./yd² of 100% cotton and 18 singles for a substantial, heavyweight feel.

• Vintage Aesthetic: Garment-dyed for a lived-in, faded look that ensures almost no shrinkage when you wash it at home.

• Classic Streetwear Fit: A relaxed fit paired with a wide rib collar for a structured, modern silhouette.

• Maximum Durability: Features taped neck and shoulders to provide extra comfort and help the garment keep its shape over time.

• Sustainable Finish: Complete with a recycled tear-away label for a clean, comfortable feel.

How to Style It

• The "Uniti" Edge: Go for an edgy, neutral look by pairing this with black distressed skinny jeans and your favorite combat boots. Add a leather jacket for those cooler nights.

• The "Grace" Touch: Style it with a tan wide-brim hat and light-wash flare denim to lean into the warm, earthy tones of the cheetah print and the cream fabric.

Graphic Tee Care Guide

Protect your Grit & Grace.

To keep your custom-pressed graphic looking brand new and to maintain the structured fit of our heavyweight cotton, follow these steps:

1. Turn It Inside Out

Before tossing it in the wash, always turn your tee inside out. This creates a barrier between the graphic and other clothes, preventing the print from rubbing against zippers or buttons.

2. Cold Water Only

Heat is the enemy of custom prints. Wash your tees in cold water on a gentle cycle. This prevents the 100% cotton from shrinking and keeps the graphic from cracking or peeling over time.

3. Skip the Bleach & Harsh Detergents

Use a mild detergent. Avoid bleach or fabric softeners, as these can break down the adhesive in the graphic and dull the "Cocoa" or "Oreo" garment-dyed colors.

4. Hang Dry or Tumble Dry Low

For the longest life, hang drying is the gold standard. If you must use a dryer, use the lowest heat setting and remove the shirt while it’s still slightly damp to avoid over-drying the print.

5. Never Iron the Print

If the shirt gets wrinkled, use a steamer. If you must use an iron, never touch the iron directly to the graphic. Iron the shirt inside out on a low setting if necessary
