Frequently Asked Questions
How do I wear Apartment Pants?
Our Apartment pants are the perfect casual and comfortable pant for travelling, running errands and hanging out. They are designed to be worn hanging loosely around your hips and backside, with a drop crutch between the legs. Please bear in mind that these pants aren't stitched using "activewear" techniques, so the seams may give way and pop in pressure spots if you've chosen a snug fit. A tighter fit may also cause the printed designs to rub off in places, and you can rub away the fabric between your legs. We recommend staying true to your size for optimal wear, we don't recommend sizing down.
Our pants have an elastic component in the cotton fabric, which gives them the great drape, stretch and recovery and comfy look and feel. However elastic can perish over time – so we recommend keeping the fabric away from heat as much as you can, don’t put them in the dryer, use a cold machine wash, and if possible, dry your pants inside or in the shade, rather than in direct sunlight. Using harsh washing powders can also erode the elastane in your fabric over time.
What is the general fit of your clothing?
Our general style is true to size for a comfortable fit. Please see individual designs for more information on our website.

I have been charged twice on my credit card.
We do not hold your credit card information, so we are not able to charge you twice, unless you have made duplicate orders by mistake.
Often your bank will hold a 'pending payment' for the amount and then process through the actual charge for your order. The 'pending payment' disappears within 2-3 days and only 1 charge is removed from your card.
For more information on this, please contact your bank.

Tell me about your different fabric weights
The majority of our well known items are made with Cotton/Elastane in these weights:
190GSM - This is known as our 'Summer Weight' - it is a common weight used for tee shirting.
When buying our Apartment Pants, this is the weight we use year round for our carry over styles in both 3/4 and Full Length Pants.
260GSM - This is known as our 'Winter Weight' - it is a common weight used for sweatshirting.
This is unbrushed fleece, so is not fuzzy on the inside.
When buying our Apartment Pants, this is the weight we use in the Winter months - and you can see the name in the title of the pants e.g. "Apartment Pants - Winter - Black with Pink X"
If the name does not have Winter in it, then it is made with 190GSM, which will also be stated in the products description.
