Responsible Tee Recycling, Reuse, and Donation
Join Us in Our Sustainability Mission
At The Landmark Project, we are committed to sustainability and reducing our environmental impact. The garment industry has a significant negative impact on the environment, contributing to water pollution, waste generation, and greenhouse gas emissions. By making conscious choices, such as responsibly recycling, reusing, or donating your graphic tees, you can help mitigate these effects.
Designed for Longevity
Our graphic tees are designed to last for years, ensuring that you can enjoy them for a long time. We believe that wear and tear are normal and should be cherished signs of devotion to your favorite tee. Here are some tips to help extend the life of your garment:
- Washing Instructions: Machine wash cold with like colors. Tumble dry low or hang dry for best results. Avoid using bleach or harsh detergents.
- Storage Tips: Store your tee in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading and fabric damage.
- Avoid Over-Washing: Wash your tee only when necessary to conserve water and preserve the fabric's integrity.
- Repair and Restore: If your tee develops minor tears or loose threads, consider repairing them instead of discarding the tee. We'll be glad to send you a repair kit at no cost if that time comes.
