Built heavier. Built to last.
Heavyweight fabric
250–460 GSM cotton. The weight is printed on every listing so you know exactly what you're getting.
Pre-washed, no surprises
Garment-washed and pre-shrunk styles, so the size you order is the size you keep.
Cut with intent
Relaxed, drop-shoulder and wide-leg silhouettes with real length — not scaled-up basics.
Real measurements
Full measurements for every size, in inches and cm, on every product.
Why this piece earns a spot in your rotation
Most blanks are built to a price. Ours are built to a spec — and we print the spec.
The fabric
350 GSM. Heavy enough to keep its line.
Cheap bottoms bag out at the knee and lose their shape by the second wear. These are cut from 89% cotton, 11% polyester at 350 GSM — enough weight to hang straight, hold a clean line down the leg, and still look right after the fiftieth wash.

The fit
Cut for the fit, not just the size.
A relaxed leg with real rise and length, so they sit where they should and break properly over your shoe instead of pooling at the ankle. Every size is listed with waist, hip and length measurements in inches and cm — open the size guide above the Add to Cart button.
The finish
Washed before it ships. Not after you buy it.
Garment-washed and pre-shrunk at the factory, so the size you order is the size you keep. The wash also means it arrives already broken in: soft hand, lived-in colour, none of the stiff-and-new phase.
What they're saying
From people who've worn it, washed it, and ordered again.
MO
Ordered one hoodie to test out if the store is legit. The washed look is amazing and it's actually heavyweight and 100% cotton as advertised. Will definitely buy again!!
Noah E
I love the detail and how well made this shirt is. The wash affect is nice. Meets expectations.
Emily C
I bought this for my husband who loves oversized shirts, and he absolutely loves it! The fit is great. I just ordered two more in different colors.
Mia J
I wasn't sure how the monkey wash would look in person, but it's exactly as shown in the pictures. The fabric is thick and warm without being too heavy. Highly recomme...
Mohammad
Oversized and heavy fabric. Exactly what I was looking for. Great quality.

Why VALERO over a $12 blank?
Same silhouette on the hanger. Very different piece after five washes.

Questions, answered
How does the sizing run?
Our oversized pieces are cut roomy on purpose — if you want that look, take your normal size. If you prefer a closer fit, size down. Every product has a size guide just under the size selector, with full measurements in inches and cm. When a piece runs small, we say so on the listing.
Will it shrink?
Washed and pre-shrunk styles hold their size when washed cold and tumble-dried low. Heavy cotton can tighten slightly if you run it hot, so follow the care line on each product: cold wash, inside out, low heat.
How long does shipping take?
Orders are made to order and dispatched within 2–5 business days. Delivery to the US and Canada typically takes 7–15 business days after dispatch, and you get a tracking link by email as soon as it ships.
What if it doesn't fit?
You have 14 days from delivery to return or exchange any unworn, unwashed item with tags attached. Email info@valeroapparel.com with your order number and we'll sort it out. Sale items and 1+1 deals are exchange or store credit.
What does GSM mean?
Grams per square metre — the weight of the fabric. A typical fast-fashion tee is 140–180 GSM. Our tees run 230–425 GSM, hoodies 350–440 GSM and denim up to 460 GSM, which is why they hold their shape and feel substantial on.
Is the washed / faded look the same on every piece?
No — garment washing is done piece by piece, so the fade pattern varies slightly from one to the next. That's the point: no two are identical.
