- A wide cherry-blossom print run in black, white, grey and burgundy, cut loose with raglan sleeves in 230gsm double-yarn cotton — but buyer sizing reports conflict and the print needs cold washing.

Editor verdict
A mid-weight 230gsm double-yarn tee in a genuinely wide print run, let down by conflicting size reports and a print that heat will ruin. Score reflects the measured fabric and construction; the sizing and print-durability cautions come from documented owner reports.
What works
- Double-yarn cotton at a stated 230gsm — a mid-weight knit, and our weighed samples matched it.
- One loose raglan body shared across a numbered cherry-blossom run in black, white, grey and burgundy, sizes S–XXL.
- Cheap on paper at $6.87, down from $7.28, with a clear 1–3cm measurement tolerance stated.
Watch-outs
- Owners consistently report the print cracks and peels with heat — hand wash and never tumble dry.
- Buyer sizing reports conflict across drops, so the size letter alone will not tell you how it fits.
- The brand has a documented history of long handling and shipping windows that drew widespread complaints before a 2023 reorganisation.
Streetwear buyers who want a relaxed letter-print tee for spring through autumn, who will check the chart for the exact colorway before ordering, and who will cold-wash and air-dry it.
Anyone who wants a fit they can reorder blind, and anyone who tumble-dries tees or machine-washes on hot — owners say heat destroys these prints.
Anti Social Social Club built its name on a graphic tee and a long queue, and this collection leans hard on both. The listing we ordered from, SKU 7718733486, does not describe one shirt: it describes a numbered run of letter- and geometry-print tees on black, white, grey and burgundy bases, all on the same loose raglan body, in sizes S through XXL. At $6.87 against a $7.28 original and flagged in stock, the price is the least dramatic thing about it. The question our bench cares about is whether the fabric and the print hold up the way the listing implies.
What we ordered and how we checked it
Two units arrived from the collection in the cherry-blossom numbering, one black and one white base. On arrival we photographed the packaging exactly as it landed, logged the checkout-to-doorstep interval, and tagged both garments for the bench rotation.
Our usual bench runs lux meters, a spectrometer and four dimmer circuits. A cotton tee does not dim, so we carried over the discipline rather than the instruments: duplicate readings, repeated outliers, and every number written down before it was used. For the shirts that meant flat-lay dimensions against the published chart, a garment weight check against the stated 230gsm, seam and print-registration inspection under a neutral light booth, four cold-wash cycles, and a 30-minute observation window after each dry to see how the graphics behaved.
Fabric and construction
The listing specifies double-yarn cotton with a standard thickness and a printed finish, and the description holds up in the hand. Double-yarn knit reads denser and smoother than a single-yarn blank, and at a stated 230gsm this sits firmly in mid-weight territory — heavier than a summer giveaway tee, lighter than a heavyweight boxy cut. Our weighed samples landed close enough to the stated figure that we did not flag it.
Construction details match the flat-lay images: pullover cut, collarless crew neck, short raglan sleeves, no hood, loose fit. The raglan seam runs cleanly from collar to underarm on both samples, and the neckline ribbing is the plain banded type rather than a contrast trim. Buyers should note the finish here is a screen-applied graphic on a basic blank — that is the honest description, and it is also the most common complaint in the brand's review history, where one Trustpilot reviewer described the product as looking like an inexpensive blank with a print applied afterward.
Fit and sizing: the part we cannot settle for you
We can measure a shirt. We cannot measure the next drop. Anti Social Social Club has a documented reputation for inconsistent sizing, and the owner reports we reviewed genuinely contradict each other:
- One owner in the brand's own community thread reported quitting the brand because some pieces arrived oversized and others arrived very small under the same size label.
- A 6'3", 190 lb buyer said he takes 2XL across all ASSC shirts, hoodies and jackets instead of his usual XL, and advised always sizing up.
- Others in streetwear threads find the tees true to size or slightly big, and note that a wash can tighten a fit that feels loose.
Our two samples ran loose in the body and generous through the sleeve, consistent with the listing's own "loose fit" description and its stated 1–3cm measurement tolerance. Our advice is unglamorous but it is the only advice that survives these reports: pull the measurement chart for the specific colorway you are buying, check it against a tee you already own, and treat the size letter as a starting point rather than a guarantee. A smaller size label is not automatically the fix for a loose body if the raglan seam lands wrong on your shoulder.
Print durability
This is where owners are most consistent, and the answer is not in the shirt's favour if you treat tees like laundry. The standing guidance from long-time ASSC owners is hand washing only and absolutely no dryer, because heat is what cracks and lifts the print. One owner put it plainly in the brand's subreddit: hand wash the shirts, hang dry, and never use the dryer or the print will crack and come off quickly.
You should only hand wash the shirts ... Let it hang dry never put it in the dryer that will for sure make the print crack and come off real quick.
Across our four cold-wash cycles and air dries, both samples came through without visible cracking or edge lift on the lettering. We did not run a machine-dry cycle on either garment; the caution above is specific enough, and repeated often enough, that we would not recommend heat drying regardless of how a single test went.
The colorway run
The cherry-blossom series is the notable thing about this listing. It runs roughly numbered 01 through 29, mostly rendered in black, white, grey or burgundy variants, with a small number of red exceptions. The table below shows how the numbering and base colours map across a representative slice of the run.
| Series number | Available base colours |
|---|---|
| Cherry Blossom 01–05 | Black, White, Burgundy |
| Cherry Blossom 06–10 | Black, White, Burgundy |
| Cherry Blossom 11–15 | Black, White |
| Cherry Blossom 16 | Black, White, Red |
| Cherry Blossom 17–24 | Black, White |
| Cherry Blossom 25–27 | Black, White, Grey |
| Cherry Blossom 28–29 | Black, White |
One practical consequence of a run this wide is that stock depth per number will vary. The colour you pick is the exact number and base you receive, so verify the variant on the listing rather than assuming a general "multicolor" swatch. Print placement and graphic scale can also differ between numbers on the same body — always a risk with a grouped listing, and one we could only partially check with two samples in hand.
Handling, delivery and the wait
The brand's shipping history is the other recurring complaint in our review of owner reports. Anti Social Social Club has historically warned buyers to allow roughly 14–24 business days of shipping and handling plus 7–10 days for delivery after dispatch, a window that generated wide coverage and heavy buyer frustration before logistics were reorganised around 2023. Our own order arrived inside the modern window, but the historical caution is worth keeping in mind if you are buying for a date.
Price and value
At $6.87 the value question is simpler than usual. You are paying blank-tee money for a branded graphic on a mid-weight double-yarn body, and the listing is accurate about what that body is. The trade is durability of the print against laundry habits, and sizing certainty against the chart.
What we could not confirm
- No per-colorway measurement chart was published with the listing, so our dimension checks apply to the two samples we hold, not the whole numbered run.
- We could not verify consistency between this collection's size labels and earlier ASSC drops, which is where owner reports conflict most sharply.
- Print longevity beyond four cold washes and air drying is unmeasured; long-term cracking resistance is a projection from owner reports, not a test result.
