Frequently Asked Questions
Are you Black-owned?
Yes, and thanks for asking! TheBlackest Co. is proudly Black-owned and ByBlack certified, administered by U.S. Black Chambers.
How long does shipping take?
Most orders arrive in 7-10 business days: up to 5 to print, then up to 5 to ship. Business days are Monday to Friday, not counting holidays. Every item is made to order, which takes a little extra time, but ensures quality, reduces waste, and saves water.
How do I know what size?
Measure something you already own and love the fit of, then compare to our size chart on each product page. Our shirts generally run true to size - if you're between sizes or prefer a looser fit, sizing up is usually the way to go.
Can I use discount codes with...?
Good news - a lot of our codes do stack! We have so many running at once that the easiest way to know is to add them at checkout and see what happens. If it works, you'll see it. If not, no worries - the best deal will still always apply!
Is this made to order?
Yup - just like a birthday cake! Every item is made to order, which takes a little extra time, but ensures quality, reduces waste, and saves water.
What's your return policy?
If your order arrives misprinted, damaged or wrong, we'll replace it free. Contact us within 30 days of delivery with your order number, and we'll tell you exactly what we need to get it fixed fast.
Because each item is made to order, we're not able to accept returns or exchanges for size or color choices...or life's regrets. We don't carry inventory to swap out and we don't resell returns.
Wait!? I've seen this design somewhere else!
Probably. Our popular & original designs get stolen constantly, and if you buy it anywhere but our site, hoping to save a few bucks, you're rolling the dice on sketchy bank charges, garbage print quality, cheap threadbare garments, and sellers who may never send the item anyway - they don't even have a real print file, just a screenshot scraped off the internet. We only sell this design here, period. Every other listing is stolen artwork from shady companies cashing in on our hard work, and every dollar spent there is a dollar taken from a small Black-owned business instead of supporting one. Buy Black. Buy original.
A Genuine Black-Owned Company
Culture Vulture Free Zone
Look, we’re all for inclusion and celebrating Black history. But more and more NON Black-owned companies are selling Black culture while also falsely claiming to be Black-owned. That’s cultural appropriation, and it’s not just dishonest, it’s disrespectful to the Black community. Profiting off Black culture without supporting Black-owned businesses keeps systemic inequality going and erases Black voices. So do your research. Support real Black-owned businesses that stand for social justice, equity, and circulating the Black dollar, not the ones cashing in on the latest trend.
We don’t just say it. We went through the process to get ByBlack certified, administered by U.S. Black Chambers, so you know exactly where your dollars go.
Love the fit, the look and the concept, beautiful shirt!
