Ring-spun cotton and the garment dye-and-wash process give the 1717 a familiar, broken-in feel. Comfort begins with the first wear.
02 / THE WEIGHT
A little more substance.
At 6.1 oz per square yard, the cotton has a substantial feel. Choose it when you want a tee with more body than a lightweight shirt.
03 / THE FIT
Room to settle in.
A relaxed unisex cut gives you an easy silhouette. Wear it loose, tuck it into jeans, or layer it beneath an open shirt.
04 / THE COLOR
Color with character.
Pigment-dyed shades bring a vintage finish; reactive-dyed shades offer a more traditional appearance. Both share the brand’s soft feel.
05 / THE FINISH
Details that do their job.
Reinforcing tape at the neck and shoulders, plus double-needle stitching, add durability where a tee gets regular wear.
06 / THE WASH
Pre-shrunk before it reaches you.
The dye-and-wash process helps reduce later shrinkage. Follow the care label; pre-shrunk cotton can still change with heat and laundering.
These details describe the Comfort Colors 1717. Other Known Pack garments have their own fabric, fit, and care information. Sources & garment details
Our art. Your everyday favorite.
Wildflowers at the kitchen table. A snow leopard on a city sidewalk. A butterfly somewhere between errands and the long way home. Our designs bring a little of what you love into the clothes you actually wear.
Find your kind of fit.
Start with the size chart on your chosen product. Lay a favorite tee flat and compare its chest width and length. That’s more useful than relying on a size letter alone.
Prefer an oversized look? Compare the next size up. Available sizes and colors vary by design.
Keep it in rotation.
Wash cold, inside out.
Tumble dry low.
Avoid bleach and high heat.
Keep the iron off the artwork.
Follow the care label and your product’s instructions.
A few good questions.
What does garment-dyed mean?
The shirt is dyed after it is sewn. Pigment-dyed colors can vary slightly between garments and batches, giving them individual character. Screens and lighting also affect how a shade looks.
Is this the right tee for me?
Choose the 1717 if you like substantial cotton, an easy fit, and a casual look. Prefer a lighter shirt? Explore our Everyday Tees and compare the product details.
What about the environmental side?
Comfort Colors reports that its Pigment Pure™ dye process uses less water and energy, takes 40% less processing time, and requires no salt compared with conventional reactive dyeing, based on approximate averages. These are process-level claims, not a footprint measurement for every finished tee. Dye methods vary by color. Read the manufacturer’s explanation.
Is every Known Pack garment Comfort Colors?
We offer several garment styles. Check the brand, fabric, and size guide on each product page. This guide focuses on our Comfort Colors 1717 Premium Tees.
The sweatshirt has a nice weight to it and feels comfortable without being stiff. The tiger is really detailed and I like how the bamboo and magnolia frame the design. I went with my usual size and it fits roomy.
The butterfly print is really pretty and there are a lot of little details in the flowers. Shirt is soft and comfortable. It looks nice with jeans and I’ve already worn it a few times
Bought this for my girlfriend and she really liked it. The blue butterfly is beautiful and the colors look even better in person. She said it’s really comfortable and the relaxed fit works well. Definitely glad I picked this one.
Nice quality shirt and the bee/sunflower design is very well done. I ordered the darker color and the artwork shows up really nicely against it. Fits good and the fabric feels substantial.
Ordered this because of the flowers and butterfly and it turned out really pretty. The artwork has a softer look in person. Comfortable shirt and the size was right for me.
This has a different look than most of the celestial shirts I’ve seen. I like the folk-art style and all the little details around the sun and moon. The shirt itself is comfortable and the print looks good.
My daughter received the shirt the other day (I had ordered it for her as a surprise). She loved the color and she loved the texture. (she also loves butterflies). Said it was so soft
Thanks.

Thank you, MaDonna! A surprise gift for a daughter who loves butterflies, that is exactly why we make these. So happy it arrived soft and landed well. Please enjoy.

Good everyday long sleeve. The fabric has some weight to it but it’s still comfortable for layering. I like the message on this one and the relaxed fit worked well for me.
Store owner replied:
Pamela, thank you! This made our whole day. The Monarch is the design that started it all for us, so hearing that the fit, the color, and the butterfly all landed perfectly is everything we hope for. Thank you for supporting our small shop. Max & Anya, The Known Pack
Store owner replied:
Thank you so much, Lori! "Be You. Do You. For You." is one of our favorites too. Hand-drawn wildflowers with a reminder we all need. So glad it reached you quickly, and it only gets softer with every wash.
Max, The Known Pack

Pam, 'as beautiful as pictured' is just about the nicest thing you could tell us - we work hard to show these exactly as they print. So glad the Luna Moth found you. Max & Anya, The Known Pack
Sz is spot on, soft tshirt, came quickly, pretty blue, ordered 4 and happy with them all. Will order from them again
Love this design, (love lightening bugs in the summer).. size is spot on, I ordered a lrg because I like my T-shirts, a little roomy.. delivery was quick.. shirt is soft... Happy
Store owner replied:
So glad the Celestial found a good home, Janet - Anya drew that one over many quiet evenings, and hearing it's loved (and getting softer) means a lot. Thank you. Max & Anya
Love the shirt!, so summery, size is perfect, I got a leg because I like it a little roomy, have worn and washed and it's even softer.. would recommend and buy again through this company
Store owner replied:
Janet, this made our week - 'even softer after washing' is exactly what we hope for with these garment-dyed tees. Roomy was the right call too. Thank you for giving us a try and for the kind words. Max & Anya, The Known Pack
Store owner replied:
Thank you, Cathy! The monarch was one of the very first designs Anya ever drew for the pack - it means a lot that it's a favorite in your house too. Max & Anya
