Products
Clothing
How does your clothing fit?
Please refer to the size chart that has been made available next to the images on every t-shirt design page.
How should I care for my t-shirt?
We recommend turning them inside out and machine or hand washing on cold. Since all of our shirts are made from cotton, they will tend to shrink a little after being washed and dried. To minimize the shrinking, tumble dry on low or air dry on the washing line. Each shirt does come with washcare instructions, just in case you need a reminder.
What type of printing process is used on your clothing?
Most of our t-shirts are screenprinted with water-based ink. The Nature in Black and White t-shirt range is made with a digitally printed heat transfer process.
Will the printing on the tees fade?
We use high quality water-based inks which are cured to specified standards after printing, producing a durable and long lasting finish.
Do you manufacture your products in-house?
All Creative Nature design and production is done in-house, with an element of our screen printing outsourced. We have a dedicated team of machinists and workshop staff that take our raw materials from bits and pieces to end product. We also partner with a variety of suppliers all across South Africa to source locally and contribute to the local economy.
Can you notify me when a product is back in stock?
Yes. If a product is out of stock, simply click the “Notify me when Available” button on the product page and enter your email address.
Miscellaneous
I want to sell Creative Nature products in my shop. Do you sell wholesale?
Yes, we do supply our products to a select group of shops, from gift shops to bush lodges. As we are selective, please email info@creativenature.co.za with details about your space and where you are located - we will have a look at current distribution and how your space might fit in with that.
I’d like to sell my photography to Creative Nature, is this possible?
Sorry, we don’t buy any additional photography. All of the Creative Nature images are photographed by James Campbell - and being the photographer is why the business came to be in the first place!
