Not Your Average Tee — Why Ripper Uses 220 GSM, 240 GSM & Acid Wash for That Premium Feel
At Ripper, we don’t believe in ordinary. From the streets to the studio, your fit deserves to feel different, look elevated, and last way longer than the average throwaway tee.
That’s why we use premium fabrics like 220 GSM, 240 GSM, and acid-wash finishes — not because it’s trendy, but because it’s essential.
What is GSM & Why Should You Care?
GSM (Grams per Square Meter) is a measurement of fabric weight and quality. The higher the GSM, the thicker and more durable the fabric.
| GSM Level | What it Means | Why We Use It |
|---|---|---|
| 220 GSM | Structured Comfort | For oversized fits that hold shape and don’t sag |
| 240 GSM | Ultra Heavyweight | For drop shoulders and standout silhouettes |
| Acid Wash | Vintage + Texture | For a lived-in, street-ready finish |
Why We Don’t Do Thin, Basic Tees
Thin tees shrink. Fade. Fall apart.
Ripper tees are different. They’re:
-
Built to feel luxurious from Day 1
-
Hold structure after multiple washes
-
Designed for bold, expressive looks
-
Meant for those who don’t settle
Acid Wash – Our Signature Twist
Acid wash isn’t just a finish — it’s an attitude.
Each piece carries its own story, with vintage vibes, raw texture, and no two exactly alike.
It’s not mass-produced. It’s crafted.
Bottom Line — Ripper Is Built Different
We didn’t start this brand to be average.
We created Ripper for the ones who want more — in style, in quality, in presence.
