What sizes do you offer?

We offer a wide range of sizes to ensure everyone can find their perfect fit! Our standard sizes include XS, S, M, L, XL, and XXL. For some products, we also offer extended sizes. You can check the size chart on each product page for specific measurements and ensure you choose the right size for you. 😊

What material are the t-shirts made from?

Most of our t-shirts are crafted from 100% organic cotton, ensuring maximum comfort while promoting sustainability. This means you get soft, breathable fabric that's gentle on your skin and better for the environment. On top of that, the organic cotton is durable, making your t-shirt last longer through numerous wears and washes. For a different style, we offer all-over print t-shirts made of polyester, providing vibrant and lasting prints for those who love a pop of color in their wardrobe. So, whether you prefer the natural, sustainable feel of organic cotton or the bold, lively designs of polyester, we’ve got something for everyone.

How should I care for my DipaliZ t-shirt?

Caring for your DipaliZ t-shirt is simple and helps keep it looking great: Wash Cold: Turn your t-shirt inside out and wash in cold water with similar colors to prevent fading and maintain the print quality. Gentle Cycle: Use a gentle cycle to avoid excessive agitation, which can cause wear and tear. Mild Detergent: Opt for a mild detergent to preserve the fabric's integrity and color. Avoid Bleach: Steer clear of bleach or any harsh chemicals that could damage the material and design. Air Dry: For the best results, air dry your t-shirt. If using a dryer, choose a low heat setting to avoid shrinking. Ironing: If needed, iron your t-shirt inside out on a low heat setting. Avoid ironing directly over the print. With these care tips, your DipaliZ t-shirt will stay comfy and stylish for a long time!

Can I return or exchange a t-shirt if it doesn’t fit?

Absolutely! We offer a hassle-free 30-day return and exchange policy. If for any reason you're not satisfied with your purchase, you can return or exchange it within 30 days. Just make sure the t-shirt is unworn, unwashed, and in its original condition with all tags intact. Once we receive the item, we’ll process your request promptly, so you can shop with confidence. Your satisfaction is our priority.

Are there any special care instructions for printed designs?

Yes, caring for DipaliZ printed designs requires some special attention to keep them looking fresh: Turn Inside Out: Always wash your t-shirt inside out to protect the printed design from rubbing and fading. Use Cold Water: Wash with cold water to maintain the color and vibrancy of the print. Gentle Cycle: Opt for a gentle cycle to reduce wear and tear on the fabric and print. Mild Detergent: Use a mild detergent free from bleach to prevent any damage to the design. Avoid High Heat: Skip the dryer or use a low heat setting. High heat can cause the print to crack or peel over time. Skip the Iron: If ironing is necessary, make sure to iron the t-shirt inside out and avoid direct contact with the printed area. With these steps, your DipaliZ printed designs will stay sharp and stylish for many wears to come!

Dad Original Influencer

About This Item

Garment dyeing is what sets this DipaliZ Dad: The Original Influencer tee apart: the shirt is dyed after it is sewn, so the color has a softer depth and a lived-in feel from the first wear. It is offered in Black and Graphite across seven sizes from S to 4XL. The chest graphic is retro typography rather than an illustration. This tee suits Father's Day, birthdays and everyday casual wear.

The story behind this design

The type borrows from old advertising lettering, where a word was given a heavy slab base and a thin outline above it, which is why the joke lands as a claim rather than a caption. Setting it on a garment-dyed dark blank changes the tone again: the softened color makes the graphic read as something already owned rather than newly bought. That was the intended effect.

Frequently asked questions

Q: What does garment-dyed mean?
A: The tee is dyed after it is sewn rather than before, which gives the color a softer, slightly uneven depth and a lived-in feel from the first wear.

Q: Which colors and sizes are offered?
A: Black and Graphite, in seven sizes from S to 4XL.

Q: What is the graphic?
A: Dad: The Original Influencer, set as a retro typographic graphic on the chest.

Q: How does this differ from the other DipaliZ Original Influencer tees?
A: Same graphic, different blank. This one is garment-dyed in Black and Graphite up to 4XL; the others are a heavy cotton tee and a jersey tee in light colorways up to 5XL.

Care

Machine wash cold inside out on a gentle cycle, tumble dry low, and do not iron directly over the printed graphic.
