Unisex Design Philosophy
Here at The Alternative Store, we don’t split our clothing into men's and women's categories for two reasons.
Firstly, most of our clothing is designed to be unisex, meaning it can run slightly small in some cases, so we recommend checking our size charts before purchasing.
Secondly, we believe anyone can wear our clothing regardless of who they are, which is why our clothing is designed for everyone.
Premium Sustainable Fabric
Made from 85% Organic Ringspun Combed Cotton and 15% Recycled Polyester, this sweatshirt is designed to be super soft with a warm, fluffy interior lining.
As many customers who visit our store know, this fabric blend provides comfort, durability, and a more sustainable alternative to conventional cotton garments.
Fit and Comfort
Fit: Slightly small fit designed for a sleek, modern look.
Tip: For a more relaxed or comfortable fit, we recommend going one size up.
