What sizes are available for this metalcore tee?

How should I care for the distressed graphic print?

To maintain the vintage look of the white ink, wash the shirt inside out in cold water. Avoid bleach and high heat drying, which can crack or fade the hurricane graphic over time. Hanging the shirt to dry is also a good option if you want to extend the life of the print even further.

Yes, the breathable cotton fabric and durable print make this Wage War tee ideal for live shows like the Sick New World festival. It offers comfort during long hours of standing and movement, keeping you cool in crowded venues. The distressed style also hides minor stains or sweat marks better than solid-colored shirts, making it practical for active environments.
