How does RIPT Apparel Work?

RIPT Apparel sells 3 new designs a day. T-Shirts start at $13 and are available for only 24 hours. Once new designs go up for sale at Midnight CST, you can still purchase the previous day's designs for an additional 12 hours at an increased price.

Old designs that are no longer for sale are laid to rest in our graveyard. Be sure to check out past designs and “love” them.

All artwork sold at RIPT Apparel is submitted by artists all over the world. They receive 10% of total revenue from their sales.

RIPT Apparel is based out Chicago, IL and was started in 2009.

What are exclusive designs?

Exclusive designs are designs that you can only get at RIPT Apparel. All Exclusive designs will reappear in our Exclusive Store starting at $20 for men's t-shirts and women's t-shirts.

Can I purchase from the Graveyard?

We're sorry to say but we only have the rights to sell our designs for 36 hours. Once that time expires, there is no way to purchase the design because the rights to that artwork revert back to the artist.

There are a few exclusive designs that will pop back up in our exclusive store though, so keep an eye out.

If you are interested in purchasing a non exclusive design after the sale is over at RIPT Apparel you can always contact the artist of the design. They may be selling it elsewhere.

We also accept payments through PayPal and Amazon Payments.

Do your shirts shrink?

RIPT Apparel shirts are labeled preshrunk. The tee shirts will shrink slightly when dried in a dryer.

We recommend air/hang drying all RIPT Apparel tees.

Unfortunately we do not offer returns or exchanges because of shirts that have shrunk.

Washing tips?

We recommend that shirts be washed inside-out (especially for the first wash) to avoid any harmful interaction with the inks during the washing and drying process. We also recommend hang drying your tees. They are pre-shrunk but will still shrink if dried on hot heat.
