Product Insights
This oversized tricolour striped T-shirt from Le 31 uses thick 100% organic cotton jersey matching the quality of European premium brands like Stieglitz and NIKIN but at a notably lower price—50 CAD, which is 43% less than NIKIN and 65% less than Stieglitz. Designed in Canada, a distinction European brands lack, the structured, boxy oversized silhouette comes from the drop-shoulder cut and thick fabric. Stick with your usual size for the intended oversized look, or size down for a more fitted silhouette. However, to minimize shrinkage and maintain the oversized fit, the thick organic cotton requires washing in cold water and drying on low heat or air drying. This combination of tricolour stripe and thicker organic cotton positions it as a clear upgrade over mass-market basics.

Deep Research
Competitive positioning
- The German‑origin Stieglitz oversized tee retails for €99 (~144 CAD) and focuses on premium‑segment 100% cotton basics; the Le 31 counters with certified organic cotton, a drop‑shoulder boxy cut, and a ‘thick’ jersey hand‑feel that beats many premium tees on substance — all at roughly a third of the price, making it a rare affordable entry point for a heavyweight organic stripe piece.
- At 50 CAD, the Le 31 striped tee costs about 43% less than the Swiss‑branded NIKIN TreeShirt (€59.90, ~87 CAD) while matching its 100% organic cotton composition and offering a similarly thick, oversized fit — the lower price strips away the tree‑planting premium to deliver a pure product‑first value in the organic stripe category.
- The ‘designed in Canada’ tagline gives the Le 31 tee a local design credibility that NIKIN (Switzerland) and Stieglitz (Germany) cannot claim for a Canadian audience — it pairs that regional identity with an accessible price point, filling a rare niche in the organic streetwear segment where Canadian‑branded options are often scarce at this price.
- Uniqlo’s U oversized tee (non‑organic, ~15–20 USD) is the mass‑market benchmark for a boxy silhouette, but the Le 31 upgrades to organic cotton, adds a noticeably thicker jersey, and replaces the solid colorway with a design‑forward tricolour stripe — the 25–35 CAD premium buys both ethical fiber and a more visually distinct aesthetic that moves it beyond a basic layering piece.
- Le 31 is an in‑house label of Canadian retailer Simons, so the tee bypasses the wholesale markup that typically adds 30–60% to competing brands’ retail prices — this is the structural reason a 100% organic cotton thick oversized tee can land at 50 CAD while comparable European imports like NIKIN and Stieglitz run 75–145+ CAD.

Q&A
2 answered- What is the recommended care to minimize shrinkage in 100% organic cotton?
- To minimize shrinkage, we recommend washing in cold water and tumble drying on low heat or air drying. This is standard care for 100% organic cotton jersey.
- For someone who typically wears a size L in regular fit tees, would you recommend sizing down for the intended oversized look?
- Since this shirt has an oversized fit, we recommend sticking with your usual size L to achieve the intended boxy, cropped look. Sizing down would result in a less oversized, more fitted silhouette.
