One word, two parts, zero editing. For the brain that says the quiet part out loud, and the warning sign that comes with it.
Part of Loud & Clear: big, bold words for the things you'd rather not explain twice. Said once. Understood completely.

Product & Care
Specification
- 80% organic combed ring-spun cotton / 20% recycled polyester
- 3-end brushed fleece with a 100% organic cotton face
- 8.3 oz (280 g/m²)
- European production is 85% organic cotton / 15% recycled polyester
Care
- Wash
- Machine wash cold, inside out, with like colours.
- Dry
- Tumble dry low.
- Iron
- Low heat, inside out, never over the print. Don't dry clean.
- Bleach
- No.
- Expect
- The cloth is washed before the garment is made up, so it arrives soft rather than stiff.
- Embroidery
- The brushed face takes stitching well.
Good to know
- A new print can smell faintly of vinegar, or carry a pale mark from the pre-treatment. Both wash out.
- Keep it out of direct sunlight before that first wash — the pre-treatment can sun-stain, and that doesn’t come out.
- No fabric softener. It dulls the print.
- On embroidery, iron around the stitching rather than over it. We’ve washed ours repeatedly and they’ve held up.

These are the garment’s own measurements, not body sizes — and one maker’s medium isn’t another’s, so it’s worth a look before you choose. Soft fabrics never cut quite identically, so allow a little either way.
Width is measured flat, underarm to underarm — double it for the full way round. Sleeve length runs from the top of the set-in sleeve to the cuff. Our fulfiller notes that these sizes correspond to one size bigger in the UK and European market, so if you usually buy UK or European sizes, order a size down. This blank is made to two specifications — SASU010 for the US and STSU868 for Europe — and the figures above are the ones our fulfiller publishes.
How this one fits
Unisex Organic Sweatshirt
Mid-weight brushed fleece in a unisex medium fit, with set-in sleeves and 1 × 1 rib at the collar, cuffs and hem. The face is 100% organic cotton and the cloth is washed before the garment is made up, so it arrives soft rather than stiff. The rib is 100% cotton with no elastane in it, so it holds its shape without gripping. This one is made in two places: units made in the US are 80% organic cotton with 20% recycled polyester, and units made in Europe are 85% organic cotton with 15% recycled polyester.
Cut
Unisex medium fit — between relaxed and fitted — with set-in sleeves. It follows a US sizing convention: our fulfiller notes that each size corresponds to one size bigger in the European market, so if you usually buy UK or European sizes, order a size down.
Sensory notes

- On an embroidered design, the reverse of the stitching has some texture inside.

Shipping & Returns
Shipping
Made for you after you order — 1–5 working days to make, then 3–5 to arrive. Free over $70 / £60; below that, a standard flat rate shown at checkout.
If it arrives faulty
Damaged, misprinted or just wrong — that’s on us. Send your order number and a photo within 30 days of delivery and we’ll replace it or refund you in full. Not sure it counts? Tell us anyway.
If it isn’t right for you
Comfort is personal, and sometimes a piece just isn’t right once it’s on. There’s no rush to decide — give it a few wears and a wash, and if it still doesn’t suit you, tell us within 60 days. A replacement in the size you need, a different piece, or store credit. Having worn it won’t count against you.
You don’t have to explain why — that’s the Zero Apologies Guarantee. All we ask is that you cover the postage if something needs to come back to us, and we’ll confirm what to send and where.
Do check the size guide above before you order — it has the real measurements, flat and unstretched. Our Gear explains how each piece is cut and how it wears, which is the other half of the question.
Reviews
From people wearing it
Marked “gifted” where we sent the product free. Nobody was paid, and the words are their own.
This was gifted to me, and it’s now my favorite top. It works as a layering piece over t-shirts and vests, and is particularly good for after a workout or run. It’s very soft, nice color, and the badge is really well made. No one has mentioned it either and I like that I can make a statement without shouting. It’s original. I’m pleased.

This was a gift from someone who knows me well. It’s very nice. It’s soft and smooth; the embroidery is subtle. The off-white, cream colour is also very handy. I live in a hot place, so I need tees that work with lighter colours too. I would buy more.

I bought this for my friend who has recently been diagnosed ADHD. She doesn’t know what to do with the news, so i thought the idea of it being complicated would resonate with her. She was over the moon. Neither of us had seen anything like it before. This is just after she washed it to test the embroidery so it's a bit creased, but the embroidery stayed true.
Lynn F.It's Complicated Phrase (ADHD) t-shirt, White
A gift for my daughter. We both thought it was funny, and liked how it recast ADHD in a more positive light The mug is no-frills, simple, but not too chunky, and is comfortable to hold and drink from.

It’s a comfort colors T-shirt. I have a few already, as I like the feel and the colors are more modern than other brands, and have that lived-in feeling. They remind me of tees I had at college years ago, comfy, relaxed, and easy to wear. Just pick up off the floor and put it on :) recommend.
