General FAQ

In general you can Machine wash (cold), inside-out, gentle cycle with mild detergent and similar colours. Use non-chlorine bleach, only when necessary. No fabric softeners. Tumble dry low, or hang-dry for longest life. Cool iron inside-out if necessary. Do not iron decoration. Do not dry clean.

Please refer to the instructions below for Neck Gaiters.

Size up if in doubt

Your leggings are printed and then sewn together. Like all printed stretchy fabric the printed layer can be pulled apart when stretched, giving a sheer appearance. For this reason we always advise to size up if you are in any way unsure whether you will stretch the fabric too much when fitting into your leggings.

Avoid rough surfaces and keep your leggings away from scratchy surfaces – like walls

With the fabric base colour being white, we advise that you avoid scratching the printed surface by sitting on rough surfaces such as walls. Any hard scratchy surface is a hazard to the quality of the print on the leggings. When you pull the fibres, the white un-printed part will show through and spoil the look of the leggings.

Washing

Though you can put these in the washing machine on 30° temp, if you want to be extra careful you can just hand wash them in 30° temp water.

Use a mild liquid detergent and do not put the leggings in the dryer.

Avoid putting the leggings in the wash with rough materials such as zips, hook and loop fasteners and/or scratchy fibres.

Don’t over stretch the leggings

These leggings are printed first and then sewn together. The base is white, and the printing ink is applied on the top of the fabric surface. If the leggings are stretched considerably then the white material shows through as the printed threads are pulled apart. This is the nature of printed stretchy fabric.

Size up

The white under-layer showing through is totally normal if you are trying to fit into a smaller size. If you are in any doubt about sizing – order a size up to prevent over-stretching of the fabric.

If you are still in doubt about this issue you could buy a lighter colour design or a more fussy pattern to disguise this common issue.

The best way is to hand-wash them, don’t put them in a washing machine. This will help with retaining their shape and won’t diminish the quality of the embroidered design.

We recommend you wash them with a mild detergent (not bleach), in lukewarm water. If there are any spots that require more attention, then you can use a brush with soft bristles.

Moose Disco is owned by a designer illustrator and is not like the majority of large ‘big name’ catalogue shops you find online. We are just a small business selling alternative, unique and personalised designer products.

Our products are printed, made up and shipped on a ‘per order’ basis. We work with a reliable, high-quality print-on-demand drop shipper. They have locations worldwide, so depending on where you are, your orders are printed and shipped from the facility that can do it most efficiently.

We also have a preference to use a local fulfilment centre in Cornwall for some of our tShirts and hoodies destined for UK addresses.

Washing your neck gaiter

Just hand wash in 30° temp water and drip dry.

This is so that the gaiter does not go through the rigours of the washing machine, or is exposed to high temperature in the tumble dryer. It will keep your neck gaiter lovely and elastic while preserving the vibrant colours.

We’d love to have larger examples of the artwork on show, but our website is constantly under threat of IP theft.

In other words, our work is stolen and put onto other sites to be sold with inferior copied artwork. Or worse, using our designs to lure customers into a site with the sole purpose of stealing your credit card or bank details. Keeping our file preview sizes a bit smaller makes theft a bit harder, and ensures you get unique and unusual designs.

When you buy from us, we are selling the original artwork and design files on products, so they are of the highest quality. We just don’t want that quality and our designs stolen.

About Product Availability

Please contact us and we can see if we can make that available.

Most if not all of the designs will go on another item.

If you can’t find the product you wanted to buy please contact us and we will try to find it for you. If it is out of stock, don’t worry we can email you as soon as we have more available. Products go in and out of stock all the time, but because we use a fulfilment centre and not a finite inventory, we can usually have the product back online within a couple of days. However, if the product is listed as limited stock then we are afraid it will be gone.

Australia has strict laws for what can be imported into the country. Wood products are especially regulated as they can contain timber borers, insect pests, bark, and other potential bio-hazards.

The regulations and treatment processes for importing wooden products into Australia are incredibly difficult to maintain, so for that reason we don’t ship canvases or framed posters there.

About Post and Shipping

COVID-19 and Shipping information

Most fulfilment times back to normal. Shipping times are still slow. See our Delivery Times page.

Your order may contain products that do not ship together. This means some portion of your overall order is already complete and we are still working on another shipment for the rest of your order.

A lot of the time this is because some of the items you ordered are stocked by different fulfilment centres. We use different businesses to complete your order because:

  • Stock was unavailable at one of our fulfilment centres
  • We have to get that item printed with someone else
  • Part of your order was completed quickly, and the rest of the order will take a little longer
  • We are waiting on some products in your order from our suppliers
  • It was cheaper to ship this way, which kept your shipping charge as low as possible

If you have waited long enough and you suspect that you have only half your order and the rest has been forgotten contact us and we will try to hunt it down for you.

Please see our page on delivery times for more information.

It will 3 to 5 working days to fulfil your order and then it will be shipped.

We use Eco-Friendly inks, but like all direct-to-garment printing, we have to coat the fabric in a pre-treatment solution in order to ensure the print stays at high-quality and endures without fading or flaking off through use.

The marks look white on dark surfaces like black tshirts, and yellowish on white tshirts..

This is normal and the yellow marks will wash out in the first wash. If it doesn’t wash out please contact us

Monitors, mobile phones and tablets all have different settings for showing colour. In the printing world this is called calibration. Unfortunately, the colour on your PC monitor is different to the colour on your phone, this is because those two screens are not calibrated to match each other. As a result, it is impossible to match what we see on our monitors to what you see on your tablet, phone or computer screen.

On top of that, colours of real-life products are different than the colours of the same products on your computer screen or monitor. Colours – once printed – often have a slightly duller appearance to the monitor images – because printers cannot reproduce all of the colours shown on your monitor, and your monitor is back-lit (from the inside), whereas your real-life item is lit from the outside.

For this reason we unfortunately cannot guarantee that the colours and details on our website are 100% accurate representations of the colours of the products.

It is also not guaranteed that you will get the exact same colour items when your order more than one, because your order may be completed by two different fulfilment centres. As a result – just like colour calibration – two different printers may have different outcomes with different batches of material or tshirts etc. Some materials absorb ink differently than others creating lighter or darker versions, where the ink may be more or less intense or saturated. All of these issues above are out of our control, and impossible to monitor.

Though rare, it’s possible that you were sent the wrong colour. If that’s the case, please contact us within a week after receiving your order. You will need to include your order number, we will ask for photos of the item so we can send you a replacement, or issue a refund.

Please see our Returns Policy for more information.

The inks used on many of the products is water based and Eco-Friendly, however, due to the use of a special solution during the printing process there can be a chemical smell to the inks when they have been freshly applied.

Your garment is not faulty. This is non permanent and will wash out.

Please see our Returns Policy for more information.

We always recommend that you double check the sizing charts which are displayed for each product.

Though rare, it’s possible that an item you ordered was mislabelled as a larger or smaller size than it really is. If that’s the case, please contact us within a week after receiving your order. You will need to include your order number, we will ask for photos of the mislabelled item so we can send you a replacement, or issue a refund.

If you accidentally ordered the wrong size contact us anyway – maybe we can work something out.

Please see our Returns Policy for more information.
