I can't get over how well made it is. Such crafts(wo)manship. Keep up the amazing work.

You can feel the extra quality in the weight of this item compared to cheaper t shirts you get on the market. Washed on 30 degrees and kept its shape and didn't shrink that I've noticed.

Thank you for this wonderful backpack. I use it every day. Special thanks to Lesley for her work.

Growing increasingly fed up with trendy brands and fast fashion I went on the lookout for more ethical and personal businesses to get a few tshirts from. That's how I came across The Level Collective. I bought 3, the quality feels great, they fit very nicely.

★★★★★
Used for short weekend trips. Carried everything easily, waterproof. Quite comfy for hikes as well on the train.
★★★★★
These t-shirts feel SO good with material that feels robust. Usually after a wash t-shirts lose the 'brand new' feeling, but these do not. Also the designs last well after many washes.
