Fabric & Care

Lightweight Heavyweight

Softness
Rough Super Soft

Breathability
Waterproof Breathable


For best care, machine wash gently in cold water, using a mild detergent, and avoid using bleach or fabric softeners.

Line dry out of direct sunlight, refrain from tumble drying to prevent shrinkage or fabric deterioration. If necessary, use a cool iron on the reverse side of the fabric to avoid damaging any prints or embellishments.

Avoid contact with rough surfaces or abrasive materials, as this may cause pilling or snags in the fabric. For long-term care, store the garment in a dry place and avoid prolonged exposure to direct heat or moisture.

Sustainability 🍃

Environmentally Responsible
Crafted from premium yarns made from recycled PET bottles, this polo is printed with advanced, high-quality, carcinogen-free inks. This ensures not only vibrant, lasting designs but also minimises harmful environmental impact throughout the printing process.

Sustainable Production
Life Apparel is committed to sustainability by partnering with vetted local and international manufacturers. We produce limited quantities of each design, ensuring both exclusivity and preventing overproduction, which helps to reduce waste and minimise our environmental footprint.

‎

Eco-Friendly Packaging
Our commitment to sustainability extends to our packaging, which is entirely plastic-free. We use kerbside-recyclable or home-compostable mailers to reduce landfill waste. All deliveries are managed by Australia Post, which actively supports carbon-offset projects aimed at reducing emissions and promoting a greener future.

The Artwork
"...culture could coexist with this shiny, ever-changing world."

Emma Hollingsworth

Strength Of Our Elders

2023
Acrylic On Canvas

Emma Hollingsworth is a First Nations artist, a proud Kaanju, Kuku Ya’u and Girramay woman, currently residing on Turrbal Country (Queensland).

This artwork represents the strength, resilience, and courage of my Elders - those who withstood great adversity so that I may be where I am today. My Elders inspired and led the way, taught me about my culture, and showed me that culture could coexist with this shiny, ever-changing world.

This painting is for my Elders, who comforted me and taught me so much about inner strength and how to stand tall in the face of adversity.

Stoked!

Excellent quality and true to size, my bust is 118cm and wait is 105cm and I got a size 20 so it’s not tight but sits comfortably.
I had a question about my order so I messaged on messenger and got a friendly response immediately.
Very very happy!

Thanks heaps Rhiannon 😊

Incorrect Size

Very disappointed by the product. The size was too small. It was NOT an Australian size 12. It felt more of size 10 or 8.
I spent a decent amount of money for a this product. Will not be shopping at for T-shirts with your company again.
