Devourment is a brutal death metal band formed in 1995 in Dallas following the breakup of Necrocide. Devourment released their demo, Impaled, on Corpse Gristle Records in 1997, and their full length album, Molesting the Decapitated on United Guttural Records in 1999, before disbanding due to the incarceration of their lead singer. There was a brief reformation of the band during his incarceration, which saw the initial release of the compilation album 1.3.8., and a brief reformation upon his release in 2002. The band reformed for a third time in 2005, and has since released two reissues of 1.3.8., two DVDs, and four full-length albums: Butcher the Weak, Unleash the Carnivore, Conceived in Sewage, and Obscene Majesty.

Find Your Best Fit!

Not sure what size is your best fit? We recommend taking one of your current t-shirts, laying it flat and measuring it. The measurements in the chart below are taken with the shirt laying on a flat surface. To get the length, measure from the high shoulder point down to the bottom of the shirt. To get the width, measure approximately 1-inch below the armhole, across the chest, from seam to seam. While our tees are all made using premium, pre-shrunk, ring-spun cotton, there can be some shrinkage depending on your personal wash and dry cycles. With that said, if you’re on the fence, we always suggest going up a size.

Garment and Printing Details

Like all our designs, this one is treated with our signature ‘relic-ing’ process which includes our own secret recipe of hand-painted chipping, cracking, fading, and just the right touch of yellowing to ensure that it looks the part of a true vintage imprint.** We lay these works of art down on premium Bella+Canvas 3001 Unisex Jersey Short Sleeve Tees, one of the softest, best-wearing t-shirts available today, via state of the art direct to garment (DTG) printing which allows us to create a vintage effect that simply can’t be accomplished with other printing methods. In short, these shirts are everything you’ve dreamed of and more – it feels soft and lightweight with just the right amount of stretch making it comfortable and flattering for both men and women.

So, how do I take care of my new shirt?

There honestly isn’t much to taking care of Direct to Garment (DTG) printed t-shirts, but like any garment, if you want them to last longer than not, there are a few tips.

The first thing people might get wrong is following the instructions on the t-shirt’s care tag. While it may be fine for the blank shirt, you have to keep in mind that the original manufacturer’s care instructions don’t take into consideration the DTG print that goes on top of the garment.

TL;DR: DTG printed apparel should be turned inside-out, machine-washed in cold water, meaning below 90℉ or 30℃, on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent without any fabric softener or bleach. See, easy peazy!

What is considered a mild detergent? A mild detergent is a gentle cleaning solution that contains only surface-active agents.  All Free Clear and Tide Free & Gentle are common examples of mild detergents. More intense detergents often contain enzymes or abrasives that can damage the print on a t-shirt.

Tumble-drying on hot and ironing can be detrimental to the lifecycle of the print. DTG-printed apparel can be tumble-dried on a low cycle, but hang-drying is also an option. If you must iron, make sure you use a cool iron inside-out to avoid damaging the print.

On a related note, we overprint our shirts to get the unique vintage look that we’re known for, and the first wash may show some slight fading, but this is totally normal and part of the process to get the right look!
