Care Guide: T-Shirts
Every Nique T-shirt begins with intention — thoughtful design, premium natural fibres and timeless construction. From bamboo cotton to hemp and linen, each piece is made to last and evolve beautifully with wear. With the right care, they retain their softness, drape and integrity, becoming wardrobe staples that evolve with wear.
We never underestimate the role of a good-quality tee at the core of everyday styling. Whether layered or worn on its own, each piece is designed to last, combining precision craftsmanship with timeless design. When cared for correctly, our T-shirts maintain their shape, lustre and feel, extending their life and reducing the need for replacement; a small act of sustainability in itself.
FABRICS WE USE
BAMBOO COTTON JERSEY
Used in our Lucia, Tait and Aalto tees, this bamboo-cotton blend offers a smooth hand, natural drape and refined finish.
It’s one of Nique’s signature fabrics, biodegradable and made to soften beautifully over time.
Care Tip: Cold gentle wash, turn inside out, and line dry in the shade to maintain the hand feel and drape.
STRETCH COTTON JERSEY
Featured in our Cian Tank and Cian Tee, this premium cotton jersey contains a small amount of stretch for a sculpted fit.
It’s smooth to the touch with a refined density that holds its shape while allowing easy movement.
Care Tip: Wash cold, reshape while damp, and dry flat or on a hanger. Avoid tumble drying to protect the fibre’s elasticity.
PURE HEMP JERSEY
Used in our Kyoto and unisex Cass tees, pure hemp offers a naturally textured hand and remarkable durability while remaining lightweight to wear.
Hemp is one of the world’s most sustainable fibres. It requires minimal water, grows quickly without routine pesticides or fertilisers, and naturally improves soil health. Fully biodegradable, hemp fabrics soften with wear yet hold their structure — lasting through years of regular use.
Care Tip: Cold wash with like colours. Line dry in shade and steam gently to refresh the natural fibre.
HEMP + ORGANIC COTTON JERSEY
Found in our Joben tee, this blend pairs the resilience of hemp with certified organic cotton for a soft, lightly textured hand and an easy drape.
The result is a naturally breathable fabric that balances comfort with reduced environmental impact — combining hemp’s efficient growth with organic cotton’s chemical-free cultivation.
Care Tip: Wash cold with similar colours. Line dry in shade to preserve the natural surface and feel.
PIMA COTTON JERSEY
Featured in our Knox tee, 100% Pima Cotton is renowned for exceptional softness, durability and a smooth, premium finish.
Its long-staple fibres create a refined surface that elevates everyday wear.
Care Tip: Wash cold inside out. Line dry and press on low heat on the reverse to maintain the smooth finish.
PURE COTTON JERSEY
Our unisex Yosshi use heavyweight cotton jerseys for modern structure and a clean surface.
Care Tip: Wash in cold water, turn inside out, and line dry to preserve the fabric’s smooth finish and colour.
GARMENT CARE
All Nique T-shirts are made from natural fibres, chosen for their softness, strength and low impact. With the right care, they retain their form and texture — keeping their place in your wardrobe for seasons to come.
- Air between wears to refresh fibres and reduce unnecessary washing.
- Spot clean where needed with mild, eco-friendly detergent.
- Wash cold, gentle cycle with like colours.
- Line dry in shade, avoiding tumble dryers to prevent shrinkage.
- Steam or press lightly on reverse to restore shape.
WHY CARE MATTERS
Conscious care extends the life of your tees and reduces their footprint. Natural fibres age gracefully when treated gently — becoming softer, more personal and more enduring over time.
It’s a quiet reflection of Nique’s belief that true sustainability lies in longevity.
