When it comes to oversized t-shirts, fabric weight isn't just a number — it defines the entire vibe. At NVRFLD, we exclusively use GSM 220+ cotton fabric for our oversized tees, and here’s exactly why that matters.
What Is GSM in Fabric?
GSM stands for grams per square meter, and it measures the thickness and weight of a fabric. The higher the GSM, the heavier and more premium the material feels.
Most regular tees sit between 140–180 GSM. Ours? 220+ GSM — built to last and built to look good.
1. Structured Oversized Fit
Heavier cotton means your tee falls with weight. It doesn't cling to the body or feel flimsy. Instead, it creates a clean, bold silhouette — exactly what an oversized fit is supposed to do.
2. Feels Premium, Looks Premium
The moment you wear an NVRFLD tee, you can feel the difference. That extra GSM adds depth to the fabric, giving it a soft, dense hand-feel that screams quality — not fast fashion.
3. Better Drape, Zero Flop
Low GSM shirts often flop around and lose shape after a few washes. With 220+ GSM, our tees maintain their structure, drape better on your frame, and hold their own whether tucked, layered, or left loose.
4. Built to Last
High GSM = high durability. These aren’t tees that fade out or stretch after 2 washes. Whether you're living in them or living hard — they stay sharp, season after season.
5. Perfect for Indian Streetwear
You might think heavy fabric means heavy sweat. Not here. Our 220+ GSM cotton is breathable, combed, and pre-shrunk — ideal for India’s climate. It offers the balance of bold weight and daily comfort.
