FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What is Subtlememe?
Subtlememe is an online store which specialises in selling clothing and accessories referencing an obscure meme or pop culture reference. The idea is that some people will get it, but most won't.
What are Seasons?
Subtlememe releases designs and products in batches, we call them Seasons. Seasons have a predetermined length, and the designs offered will generally only be available for that set period.
Popular designs will make regular comebacks, however.
What can we expect from future Seasons?
More clothing types, more intricate designs and more! Let us know what you would like to see, ( eg. specific designs, embroidery etc. ) we are always open to your suggestions!
What is the print and product quality like? Are the designs durable and high-quality?
We take quality seriously because we want every Subtlememe piece to feel as good as it looks - and to hold up to real life while staying subtle and wearable. We use premium, eco-conscious fabrics whenever possible - like soft, medium-weight organic cotton blends (typically 80% organic cotton / 20% recycled polyester for hoodies and sweatshirts) that are comfortable and durable.
Prints are applied with advanced techniques for sharp, vibrant details that integrate smoothly into the fabric - no cracking or fading with proper care (wash inside-out cold, low dry, no bleach). Garments are pre-washed to test durability. We review every design and sample to ensure what you get matches the subtle vibe you see online.
How do the sizes run? Are they true to size?
Outside of specific Men/Women sizes, our unisex styles are designed for a relaxed, versatile fit that’s true to size for most people. Check the detailed sizing charts on each product page (measurements in inches for chest width, body length, and sleeve length) to find your perfect match - we recommend comparing to a favorite garment you already own. Also check the "Stats" section for more detail. Note that our organic cotton blends are usually pre-shrunk.
What payment methods do you accept?
We accept various payment methods, including major credit cards (Visa, Mastercard, American Express), PayPal ( on the way ), and other secure online payment platforms. Rest assured that your payment information is protected and encrypted for a secure transaction.
Where do you currently ship to?
Currently, we ship products only to the USA, and currently all orders feature free delivery.
If you are located outside the USA and are interested in ordering, please reach out to us and we may be able to accommodate the request.
How long will it take to receive my order?
We strive to process and ship orders as quickly as possible. After your order is placed, please allow 1-2 business days for processing. Shipping times may vary depending on your location.
Please note that some products may take slightly longer to arrive due to the nature of their production. Rest assured that we intend to get your products to you as quickly as possible.
Can I suggest or request a custom design/format?
Yes! - we love hearing from our community! If you’d like a certain design in a different format (e.g., a hoodie as a tee) or have an idea for a subtle meme reference, drop us a line at hello@subtlememe.com or vote in our product polls on the Season pages. We’ll consider popular suggestions for future seasons or limited drops.
