Quality & Making

What makes an Augusta piece

Every detail is considered to create a garment with substance and purpose.

Weight is part of the design

GSM means grams per square metre. It describes fabric weight rather than the total weight of the finished garment. Confirmed Augusta T-shirts currently range from 200 to 240 GSM. Rib crop tops use a structured organic-cotton rib with stretch. Each product page shows the confirmed composition and fit.

Structure
Denser fabric generally holds a clearer silhouette.

Opacity
Fabric weight can influence how substantial and opaque a garment feels.

Drape
Weight changes the way a garment falls on the body.

Materials, construction and print

Materials
Composition varies by style. Augusta uses the confirmed supplier information shown on each product page rather than one generic claim for the entire range.

Construction
Fit, neckline, sleeve shape and garment structure are product-specific. Review the technical description before selecting a size.

Print
Graphics enter production after the order is placed. Print method and care guidance are stated only where confirmed.

Quality FAQ

What does GSM mean?

GSM means grams per square metre and describes fabric weight, not the total weight of the finished T-shirt.

Are all Augusta pieces the same weight?

No. Confirmed T-shirt styles range from 200 to 240 GSM. Other silhouettes use different constructions and compositions; check each product description for the confirmed details.

Where are Augusta products produced?

Augusta pieces are designed by the brand and printed to order through a UK production partner. We do not use Made in the UK unless full manufacturing origin is confirmed.

How should I care for the print?

Follow the garment care label and any product-specific instructions. Avoid ironing directly over the printed graphic.
