Every piece starts as 100% certified organic cotton jersey. On our natural colourways the cotton is left untreated and undyed, which is why tone and texture shift slightly from one piece to the next — shaped by harvest and origin rather than by a dye bath.

Weight varies by style, so the exact GSM, fit and composition are listed on each product page under Fabric & Fit. The Solstice Tee, for example, is 185 GSM.

Designed and printed in Europe. Our organic cotton blanks are made in Portugal and Bangladesh, in GOTS-certified factories. Every piece is then printed in Europe, in small batches.

We keep the run short on purpose: it lets us check every piece before it goes out, and it means nothing is made that nobody wanted.

Yes. Our blanks are PETA-Approved Vegan: no materials of animal origin, and no animal testing anywhere in the supply chain.

Our blanks are certified under:

• GOTS — Global Organic Textile Standard, the leading standard for organic cotton
• OCS — Organic Content Standard
• GRS — Global Recycled Standard, on pieces containing recycled fibre
• OEKO-TEX — tested for harmful substances
• PETA-Approved Vegan

We buy from a member of the Fair Wear Foundation, the organisation that audits working conditions across the garment industry.

Cut generous through the body with a dropped shoulder. They fit true to size — size down if you want a closer fit.

Full measurements are in the size chart on every product page. If you are between sizes, write to us and we will tell you what we would pick.

Machine wash cold, inside out, with similar colours. Line dry. Do not tumble dry. Iron on the reverse and never directly on the print.

Cold washing and line drying keep the cotton and the print looking right for years — and use a fraction of the energy.

It will soften, and that is the point. Our prints are made to age with the garment rather than sit on top of it. Washing cold and inside out slows it right down.

Because the cotton is undyed. Natural fibre carries its own variation in tone depending on the harvest and where it was grown. Two pieces from the same run will never be identical — that is the material telling you what it is.

Rarely. We produce in small batches and most drops are not repeated. If something you want has sold out, join the newsletter — subscribers hear about the next drop first.

Worldwide.

Shipping is calculated at checkout based on your destination. Worldwide shipping is free on orders over €75.

Orders take 1–6 business days to be prepared. Delivery times after that depend on your destination and the carrier.

All times are a guideline, not a guarantee. If you need something by a specific date, email us before you order and we will tell you honestly whether it is realistic.

You will get a confirmation email when you order, and a second email with tracking as soon as your parcel leaves us. If neither has arrived, check your spam folder first, then write to us with your order number.

Email us at info@sol-calypso.com as soon as you can and we will do what we can. Once a parcel is packed and handed to the carrier we cannot change the address or the contents.

Yes. Every order ships carbon-neutral. For each order we calculate the estimated shipping emissions, and a portion of our revenue goes to carbon removal companies vetted by scientists at Carbon Direct.

You can read exactly how it works on our Ethics page.

Never. Wherever you are in the world, duties and import taxes are on us.

The price you see at checkout is the price you pay. Nothing is collected on delivery, in any country we ship to.

Check with your neighbours and your building first — carriers often leave parcels next door. If it still has not turned up, email us with your order number and we will open a claim with the carrier and sort it out with you.

We exchange rather than refund. If your piece is not right, you are welcome to exchange it in unworn condition within 14 days of receiving it, for another style, colour or size.

We do not refund the credit of your purchase.

Email info@sol-calypso.com with your order number and what you would like instead. We will send you step-by-step instructions and the return address.

You do. Exchange shipping is at the customer’s cost — you are responsible for getting the piece back to us.

Original condition and packaging, unworn, unwashed, with all labels still attached.

In the interest of hygiene we may refuse an exchange where it is obvious that underwear has been worn.

Anything marked final sale, and anything bought with a discount code above 15%. These have already been reduced and cannot be exchanged or returned for store credit — no exceptions, including for sizing or fit.

If you have any doubt about size, fit or fabric on a final sale piece, message us or check the size chart before you order. We would rather answer a question than disappoint you.

Yes. Because some of our fabrics are limited, replacements depend on what is still available. If you choose a different style, any difference in price is refunded to you or paid by you.

That should not happen, and if it does it is on us. Email info@sol-calypso.com with your order number and a photo, and we will make it right.

A small clothing label — sun-drenched scenes and forgotten melodies, printed in Europe on organic cotton, in short runs.

Everything we release is a limited batch. When it is gone, it is usually gone.

Because making less, and making it properly, is the whole point. Short runs mean we can be careful about fabric and finish, and we are not left with stock nobody wanted. It also means pieces sell out and rarely come back.
