Why 290gsm Cotton, Mercerised Cotton, and Expert Craftsmanship Matter.
It’s easy to think of a T-shirt or a polo as just… clothing. But a truly great one changes the way you see the basics. It doesn’t just keep its shape, it moulds to fit yours. It weathers the spin cycle, the line of unforgiving pegs, the early morning commute, and the last-minute late night out — yet still looks like the first time you put it on.
Some fabrics stretch out, fade fast, or lose their edge after a few washes. But when you choose quality, you don’t just buy a garment — you invest in one.
290gsm Cotton: The Foundation of a Great T-Shirt
290gsm isn’t just a number on a label you were never going to read. It’s a promise.
Our T-shirts are 100% cotton, nearly twice as plush as an average tee. That extra weight means they hold their shape, resist stretching, and never feel flimsy.
It’s not heavy — it’s balanced. 290gsm gives you a shirt that drapes perfectly, breathes beautifully, and feels soft against your skin. But what makes it truly special is how it adapts — it shapes to you, meaning one size can look completely different on every person who wears it.
Mercerised Cotton: The Luxe Touch Behind Our Knitted Polos
A TSHEPO Polo isn’t just about looking good — it’s about feeling the difference.
Unlike standard cotton, mercerised cotton undergoes a specialised process that strengthens the fibres, giving them a silky finish and a subtle sheen. The result?
- Richer, deeper colours that won’t fade.
- A cool, smooth feel against your skin.
- A refined, elevated look — because true luxury is in the details.
Perfect for stepping up your everyday style, our knitted polos blend heritage with modern craftsmanship, offering a smart, structured fit with an effortless drape.
A Fit That Works for You
Sometimes, you’re not a size 32 or 34. And even when you find that rare 33, it still doesn’t feel quite right.
Great fabric deserves great design. That’s why every TSHEPO piece is crafted with real people in mind:
- Regular Fit T-Shirts: A timeless classic.
- Oversized T-Shirts: Freedom of movement, bold style.
- Crop T-Shirts: Sleek, confident, and perfectly cut.
- Knitted Polos: A premium take on a staple, balancing sophistication with everyday wearability.
Beyond Fabric — Why Craftsmanship Matters
It’s not just about the weight or the finish. It’s about the stitching, the seams, the details you don’t notice until they fail. At TSHEPO, we perfect every element — so whether you choose a 290gsm cotton T-shirt or a mercerised polo, it’s designed to stay in your rotation, not in the back of your cupboard.
Experience It for Yourself
TSHEPO garments are built for the journey. With every wear, they mould to you and become a part of your story. From the weight of our T-shirts to the refinement of our polos, each one is crafted to last.
