Why is this t-shirt more expensive than average?
Why is this t-shirt more expensive than average?
Because we pay everyone fairly. Because we pay a fair price for sustainable, local materials. But above all: because it's the average that's not expensive enough to guarantee all that.
Plus, if you do the math, this t-shirt is even cheaper than average in the end:
- €10 Fast-Fashion T-shirt worn 10 times (thrown away because it didn't last in the wash): €10/10 = €1 per use
- Lucid T-shirt at €60 worn every 3 weeks for 5 years: €60/85 = €0.70 per use
We're not math geniuses, but we're convinced that the bill is less steep here.

Size advice
Size advice
- Alfie is 1.80m tall and wears size M, Lola is 1.64m tall and wears size S
- Straight cut
- If you're looking for a fit better suited to feminine measurements, choose the size you usually wear -1. (e.g. you usually wear M => choose S here)
- If you're looking for a fit better suited to masculine measurements, choose the size you usually wear
- As with all natural and cellulosic fibres, slight shrinkage (3-5%) is possible after the first washes.
Keep this in mind when choosing your size: if you're unsure between two, we recommend going up a size. - Our size guide
How to care for your BLOOM?
How to care for your BLOOM?
- Prefer washing at 30° by turning the t-shirt inside out
- Drying in the open air extends its lifespan, reduces your electricity bill and preserves our beautiful planet
- Alfie is 1.80m tall and wears size M, Lola is 1.64m tall and wears size S
- Straight fit
- If you are looking for a fit better suited to female measurements, choose one size smaller than you usually wear (e.g., if you usually wear an M, choose an S here)
- If you are looking for a fit better suited to male measurements, choose the size you usually wear
- As with all natural and cellulosic fibers, slight shrinkage (3-5%) is possible during the first few washes.
Keep this in mind when choosing your size: if you are between two sizes, we recommend taking the larger one.
TO SET THE NORM, START BY PUTTING ON THE RIGHT T-SHIRT
Breathtaking
A straight, slightly loose fit that always hangs just right thanks to a heavy-weight fabric.
A printed t-shirt with an artistic and contemporary style that gives the piece a strong and colorful identity
A simple piece to wear, but impossible to forget.
Wearable art
This piece was born from a collaboration with artist Alizée Cayla.
On the front, a minimalist illustration accompanied by the phrase “Everything blooms in time” adds an inspiring and sunny touch.
On the back, a large colorful screen print transforms the t-shirt into a graphic piece, combining contemporary art and floral inspirations.
We tattooed your t-shirt
For this piece, we chose screen printing: a more durable and higher quality printing technique than many conventional digital prints.
The ink is applied directly into the textile to offer a deeper finish, a more natural feel, and better wash resistance.
The result: a design that retains its precision and intensity over time, without a plastic effect or cracks.
He will survive you
For a t-shirt to be durable, it must last. While we would be extremely happy for you to come and buy another one from us, we want to avoid that being due to our recycled material not holding up. This is why our t-shirt has a thickness of 230 gsm compared to 150 gsm for a normal t-shirt.
You won't be getting rid of it anytime soon.
The round that beats the others hands down
In our quest for sustainability, we also looked at how to make our clothes stand the test of time. We tested different types of seams, finishes, patterns, etc., all to ensure that in addition to being less disruptive to the planet, our t-shirts would be able to go everywhere you go. Here we have a solid sleeve with a neat finish that won't give out after 3 washes (and probably not after 300 either).
Squeezed tight
Wrinkled collars are cool for rhyme, but not so cool for the style of your t-shirt. When prototyping our t-shirts, we tested different types of collars and seams to come up with a collar that's close to the neck, durable, and timelessly stylish . You'll be able to put your head through it time and time again without the risk of the seams popping.

Transparency is at the heart of our approach
Does a Tencel t-shirt really have less impact than a classic cotton t-shirt?

Of all the materials, Tencel is our favorite
Are you wondering how wood pulp can make such a convincing t-shirt?
You're in luck, we've written an article to explain how Tencel is produced and what it offers in terms of durability.
Made In Near You
This t-shirt was made in a sheltered workshop in Belgium (Les Erables), which greatly contributes to the social and professional integration of people with disabilities.
