Frequently asked questions
Common questions about fit, sizing, durability, shipping, returns, and the reviews on this site — answered from real customer review patterns. For questions about a specific order, contact brutalkittens.com.
How do Brutal Kittens shirts fit?
Based on patterns across our verified-buyer reviews, Brutal Kittens t-shirts fit close to true-to-size, with the body cut leaning slightly relaxed rather than fitted. Customers consistently describe the fit as comfortable and casual — fine for everyday wear, fine to layer under a hoodie or jacket. If you tend to wear your tees fitted or run between sizes, our reviews suggest sticking to your usual size; if you want extra room, size up. A dedicated fit guide that summarizes sizing notes from every review that mentions fit is in the works and will live at /fit-guide.
Are Brutal Kittens shirts true to size?
Mostly yes. The majority of reviews that mention sizing call the fit true to size, with a small minority noting the cut runs slightly relaxed in the body. The store uses standard mid-weight cotton blanks widely used across the indie-merch industry, so if you know your size in major blanks (Bella+Canvas, Gildan, AS Colour, etc.) you can use that as a baseline. Sizing notes on specific designs are visible on each design's review page once you scan the comments — a few cuts in our catalog have their own quirks worth checking before you order.
How long does shipping take?
Order fulfillment and shipping are handled by brutalkittens.com, our parent store. Standard shipping times depend on destination and carrier: US domestic orders typically arrive within a week; international orders generally take one to three weeks depending on customs in your country. Some designs print on demand, which adds a few days to fulfillment. For the live timeline on a specific order — tracking, delays, lost packages, replacements — use the store's contact form at brutalkittens.com/contact. This reviews site doesn't process orders or have order tracking.
What size should I order?
Most customers order their usual t-shirt size and are happy with it. If you fall between sizes, the review pattern says size up — the cut is a bit more relaxed than a fitted athletic tee, and an in-between size feels closer to the larger of the two than the smaller. For hoodies, sizing runs close to true-to-size with room for layering. A complete size-by-size translation table — based on aggregated sizing notes across our review base — will be published at /fit-guide. Until then, individual review pages flag sizing on a per-design basis.
Are the prints durable? Do they fade after washing?
Reviews consistently praise Brutal Kittens prints for holding up well through repeated washes. The verified-buyer reviews that mention washing usually describe the print as still crisp and the color still bold after many cycles. To get the longest life: wash the shirt inside-out in cold water, hang or tumble-dry on low, and never iron directly on the print. The base blanks used by the store are mid-weight cotton built to keep their shape over time. Per-design durability notes — pulled from reviews of that specific print — show up on each design's review page.
What's the fabric weight?
Brutal Kittens t-shirts print on mid-weight cotton blanks — roughly 180-200 GSM depending on the specific design and blank in stock. Hoodies are heavier-weight fleece. Exact specs vary by design and the store's printer; for the definitive material composition and weight per item, see the product page on brutalkittens.com — every listing notes the blank, weight, and fabric. Customer reviews on this site consistently describe the cotton as soft (not papery), opaque (not see-through), and substantial enough to wear year-round without feeling either flimsy or stiff.
Do you ship internationally?
Yes. The store ships to the United States, the United Kingdom, the European Union, and most of Latin America. Brutal Kittens has verified-buyer reviews from customers in more than 30 countries, with the largest international audiences in the UK, Italy, Germany, Brazil, and Mexico. International shipping rates and delivery windows depend on the destination — see brutalkittens.com/shipping or check rates at the cart for your country. Customs duties, where they apply, are the customer's responsibility. If a country isn't supported at checkout, drop a note to the store and they'll tell you why.
What's your return policy?
Brutal Kittens accepts returns on unworn, unwashed items in their original condition within the window specified on the store. Returns are handled directly by brutalkittens.com — start a return through the store's contact form with your order number. For defective items (misprints, holes, sizing errors on the manufacturer's end), include a photo and the team will move faster on a replacement or refund. This reviews site doesn't process returns or refunds and can't escalate orders; we just publish the reviews. For the current return window and exact procedure, see brutalkittens.com/returns.
Are Brutal Kittens reviews real?
Yes. Every review on this site is a verified-buyer review pulled from Judge.me, the review platform on brutalkittens.com. Judge.me only assigns the verified-buyer flag when it can match a review to an actual order, so anonymous or unverified reviews don't appear here. We don't edit, paraphrase, or filter — reviews display exactly as the customer wrote them, and negative reviews appear alongside positive ones. For the full collection, verification, and display policy — including how we handle photos and takedown requests — see our methodology page at /methodology.
How can I leave a review?
Place an order at brutalkittens.com and you'll receive a review-request email from Judge.me a couple of weeks after delivery. Click the link in that email to leave a star rating, written review, and (optionally) a photo of the shirt in the wild — photos are heavily appreciated and end up in our customer photo gallery. Reviews land on Judge.me first and refresh on this site automatically. If you bought something in the past and never got a review-request email, drop a note to [email protected] with your order number and we'll resend the review link.
