Built for substance over trend. Zica Bella's heavyweight collection uses custom-developed 240+ GSM double-yarn combed cotton that delivers a structured, boxy drape without the stiffness. Pre-shrunk and bio-washed for a vintage hand-feel from day one, these tees maintain their shape and weight through years of wear. Every piece is cut on custom oversized patterns with drop-shoulder seams and reinforced ribbed collars.
GSM stands for grams per square metre and measures fabric weight. Standard fast-fashion tees are 140–160 GSM. At 240+ GSM, our tees are nearly 60% heavier, which means a thicker, more structured hand-feel, better drape, and significantly longer lifespan.
No. Our 240 GSM cotton is combed and bio-washed to achieve a soft, broken-in hand-feel. The cotton is breathable and the oversized silhouette allows airflow, making them comfortable even in warm weather.
Heavier fabric provides a more stable printing surface, which means sharper details and better ink absorption. Our high-density screen prints bond more effectively with the dense cotton fibres, resulting in prints that resist cracking and fading significantly longer than on lighter fabrics.
