Frequently Asked Questions
What makes Alter Skins different?
Alter Skins creates premium apparel inspired by philosophy, psychology, mythology, and symbolic art. Every design begins with an idea—not a trend.
Where are your products made?
Our products are printed on demand through trusted production partners. Depending on your location, your order is fulfilled at the facility closest to you to reduce shipping time whenever possible.
What kind of T-shirts do you use?
We carefully select high-quality garments that balance comfort, durability, and print quality. The exact product details are listed on each product page.
Are your prints durable?
Yes. We use professional direct-to-garment (DTG) printing designed to produce vibrant, long-lasting prints when cared for properly.
How should I wash my T-shirt?
For the best results:
- Wash inside out in cold water.
- Use a gentle cycle.
- Do not bleach.
- Tumble dry on low or hang dry.
- Do not iron directly over the printed design.
Do you ship internationally?
Yes. We ship to most countries worldwide.
Shipping times and costs are calculated at checkout based on your destination.
How long will my order take?
Because each item is made especially for you after you place your order:
- Production: 2–5 business days
- Shipping: Varies by destination
You'll receive a tracking number as soon as your order ships.
Can I return or exchange an item?
Since every item is made to order, we generally cannot accept returns or exchanges for reasons such as ordering the wrong size or changing your mind.
If your order arrives damaged, defective, or incorrect, please contact us within 30 days of delivery with photos, and we'll work to make it right.
How do I choose the right size?
Each product page includes a detailed size guide. We recommend comparing the measurements with a T-shirt you already own before ordering.
