Boardshort Recycled Content

Boardshort is made from 12 recycled plastic bottles per yard. ♻️

Care Instructions

Machine wash cool with like colors. Hang or tumble dry on low. If needed, use a cool iron with pressing cloth or on the back of the fabric. Polyester can melt if a hot iron is used directly on the printed side.

Flaw Policy

Flaws Not Covered:

There may be minor imperfections with your print. These can occur with sublimation printing and are not considered "flaws":

1. White dots (smaller than 1/8").

2. Uneven printing. During the pressing process the fabric or paper may shift slightly, creating an uneven selvage. Shifts of 1/2" or less are not considered a flaw.

3. Printing flaws/white marks that are 1" or less, and within 2" of the selvage.

4. Extra ink absorption. Occasionally ink can soak through onto the wrong side of the fabric. This happens when the fabric is being pressed where a test hole was cut. The ink is only on the wrong side and does not effect the right side of the fabric.

5. Color variations between my US and China printers is normal. As well as color variations between different bases.

In hot climates, I recommend AK 265 instead of ABP for work out attire. The brushing also gives it less drape. For dresses, I would stick with body con or circle skirts and not gathers.



Recycled Swim Nylon (grainline):

  • Swim Nylon is smooth on both sides, and has a cold hand. Unlike typical swim, this fabric is not slippery. This fabric is printed directly onto the fabric (instead of on to paper and heated onto the fabric like my polyester bases).Printing directly onto the fabric creates more saturated and vibrant coloring. As a result the colors on my nylon swim can be different than the colors on the other polyester bases. 
  • ♻️ Recycled Nylon can not be made from plastic bottles. Repreve recycled nylon is made from post-industrial waste from nylon carpet producers and nylon fiber producers.

Recycled Swim Poly (grainline):
