Garment-dye process

The Comfort Colors 1717 is dyed after full garment construction. Post-construction dyeing pre-shrinks the fabric, resulting in less than 3% shrinkage after home washing. Surface tone variation exists across individual units – no two shirts carry an identical shade. That variation is the point.

The Design on This Shirt

Vintage book-cover layout for Frankenstein: a gothic arched frame edged with thorny vines, a small lightning bolt between two stars, and the title, subtitle, author and year of the 1818 first edition.

The print reads Frankenstein · or, The Modern Prometheus · Mary Shelley · 1818.

Why Comfort Colors for a Bookish Shirt

Comfort Colors is a Hanes Brands label established in 1979. The Style 1717 uses 100% ring-spun cotton at 6.1 oz/yd², dyed after full garment construction. The post-construction dye process pre-shrinks the fabric, resulting in less than 3% shrinkage after home washing. The soft-washed surface produces a matte, broken-in texture across the fabric face. Garment-dyeing produces surface tone variation across individual units – no two shirts carry an identical shade. A bookish tee that looks factory-pressed misses the point entirely.

We print all our Book Lover Shirts on the Comfort Colors 1717 garment-dyed tee in the USA.
