What's The Status of My Order?
You will receive an email confirmation immediately following your order. It will take us 1-2 business days to process your order. Once your order has been shipped from our warehouse, you will receive another email which will provide a tracking number from the US Postal Service. Unfortunately the USPS does not provide real-time tracking yet, so the tracking number you receive is only good for two things:
You can expect orders within the US to be delivered within 2-3 business days from the date it was shipped (unless you upgraded to 1-2 Day Express Shipping), and International orders may take from 1-6 weeks to be delivered depending on country and customs, bummer we love international sales. We cannot guarantee USPS delivery times. |

What Type of Shirts do You Use?
Is that a trick question? We custom make every item we sell to ensure Quality, we do not use or condone generic tee shirt blanks. Our shape is derived from the more modern "American" style cut with adjustments that reinforce, enhance durability, and lengthen the life of the shirt. All of our Men's and Women's tees are slim fit on a 30/1 Single Ring-Spun Peruvian Cotton with an enzyme wash, silicone treatment and retroactive colors garanteed not to bleed in the wash. Please be advised that Rhetoric t-shirts are "slim fit" and you may want to round up if you are conflicted on sizing. Please review the size chart, and the question below entitled "How are your Tees sized compared to others". What the heck is a slim fit 30/1 Single Ring-Spun Cotton Shirt with an enzyme wash and silicone treatment? That's Sputnick for a regular, 100% cotton processed with quality higher than the industry standard. The enzyme wash removes undesired cotton strands while the silicone treatment provides a superior finish which is noticeably superior to untreated cotton.

How are your Tees Sized Compared to others?
Our shirts are slim-fit, prewashed, and are a perfect accessory for "High Society Jewel Heistes." Here is how to best measure your tee shirt size. Go grab your favorite tee, the one that fits the best. Try it on in front of a mirror and inspect the fit (mainly the chest areas) and confirm. Now lay it flat on your bed or kitchen table and disregard the size specified on the tag. Measure from armpit seam to armpit seam, this will give you your chest size. What did you get, 18 inches, 22? Now review the size chart provided and logically adjust your chest measurement to the closest coordinating size. Please be advised that Rhetoric t-shirts are "slim fit" and you may want to round up if you are conflicted on sizing. |

Will the Shirts Shrink after I Wash Them?
Our tee shirts are all pre-washed and dried, so they come pre-shrunk. Our tees will shrink from 0"-0.5" after you wash them for the first time, and after that they shouldn't shrink at all. Unless, of course, you boil them in the hot cycle and proceed to dry in the microwave. Then we can't guarantee anything... |
