Product Insights
The Oblivion T-Shirt from Le 31, Simons' in-house brand imported from Seoul, delivers avant-garde streetwear at a value price of $39.95 (42% off typical mall graphic tees). Made from a 75% cotton, 25% polyester blend that reduces shrinkage stress, the tee requires cold wash, air-dry, and avoiding ironing the print to preserve the screen print. The main tradeoff is sizing: Korean sizing runs small, so order one size up from your usual US size (e.g., L equals US M). Le 31 is backed by Simons' 180+ years of retail curation, and the Imported from Seoul label adds streetwear credibility.
- Graphic care
Wash cold, turn inside-out, air-dry, and avoid ironing the print.
Why this is supported
Multiple independent print-care resources converge on the same set of steps to keep a screen-printed graphic intact.
The single most effective thing you can do to preserve a screen print or a DTG print is wash at a low temperature and 30°C is the sweet spot.
live.inkTurning the shirt inside-out further shields the graphic:
Washing a tee inside out protects the graphic by placing the fabric's smoother, undecorated backside against the drum and other clothes, significantly reducing direct abrasion on the printed surface.
fexwear.comFor drying, air drying eliminates the shrinkage mismatch that causes cracking, as
The high heat can cause the fabric to shrink by 5% to 10%, but the print doesn't shrink at the same rate. This tension leads to the print cracking and eventually peeling off in flakes.
lovenemotee.comFinally, ironing directly over the print is strictly avoided:
Never, under any circumstances, run a hot iron over a printed area. The heat will instantly melt the plastic-based inks or adhesives.
lovenemotee.comThese precautions together maximize the lifespan of the Oblivion design.
- Material composition
75% cotton, 25% polyester blend provides a stable print base, reducing shrinkage stress.
Why this is supported
The 75% cotton content in this blend inherits the natural fiber stability that supports long-term graphic adhesion.
Natural fibers like 100% cotton are generally stable and have excellent absorbency for water-based inks.
fexwear.comEven at 75% cotton, the material provides a consistent foundation that resists differential shrinkage, helping the print stay bonded through repeated washes.
- Sizing
Korean sizing runs small; order one size up from your usual US size.
Why this is supported
The brand confirms the Oblivion uses Korean sizing:
Korean men's size 100 (L) corresponds roughly to US M, and 105 (XL) to US L
Given that it's imported from Seoul, do the sizes (M, L, XL) correspond to standard North American sizing or Korean sizing?and advises buyers:
We suggest ordering one size up from your usual US size for a similar fit.

- Pricing
