Here you will find answers to the most important questions about sizes, care, shipping & payment, cancellation & returns, and contact.

Size guide

Fit (in short): Unisex, regular. For a looser fit, choose one size larger; for a closer fit, choose "true to size".

Here's how to measure correctly (without a measurement chart):

1. Lay a well-fitting top flat on the table.

2. Chest width : measure under the armpits from seam to seam and multiply by 2.

3. Length : Measure from the highest shoulder point to the hem.

4. Compare with the measurements on the product page.

Tips:

- Between two sizes: choose according to the desired look (regular vs. relaxed).

- When considering a hoodie to be worn under a T-shirt: more likely "true to size".

- Fabric may shrink slightly after the first wash (please use gentle wash cycles).

Care instructions

- Wash inside out, 30°C gentle cycle, mild detergent.

- Do not use fabric softener on printed designs.

- Low spin speed, do not tumble dry.

- Iron inside out; do not iron directly on the print/embroidery.

- No bleach, no dry cleaning.

- Close garments before washing (drawstrings, zippers) to reduce friction.

Connection to the current collection

The journal is closely linked to the collections. In the collection diary, you'll find an introductory text for each collection with links to selected products. Within related "Traces of Tranquility" articles, collections and individual designs are subtly linked, allowing you to easily access the shop directly from the story, if you wish.
