Welcome to our Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) page
We understand you probably have lots of questions before making a purchase with us. Below, we’ve answered some of the most frequently asked questions about our company, products, shipping policies, returns, and more. Our goal is to provide you with all the details you need to shop with confidence.
Table of Contents
Sizing & Fit
What sizing chart do you use?
We use standard Asian sizing for all of our apparel. Check our sizing chart on product page for measurements.
How accurate are your sizing charts?
We recommend referring to the size chart for the best fit accuracy. Sizes may vary slightly by style. If between sizes, we suggest sizing up.
Will your clothes shrink when washed?
Our shirts are preshrunk to minimize shrinkage. Some minimal shrinkage (1-3%) may occur with the first wash. Hoodies and sweaters may shrink slightly more, around 3-5%.
Materials & Production
What fabrics do you use?
We use high quality fabrics including 100% cotton, cotton/polyester blends, wool, fleece, and other natural and synthetic textile materials. Fabric contents are listed on each product page.
Where are your products manufactured?
The majority of our products are ethically manufactured in factories based in Bangladesh. A small selection of items are sourced from local.
Are your textiles ethically sourced?
Yes, our cotton and other materials come from ethical and sustainable sources.
Exclusive Designs
Why are your products more expensive than other brands?
We purposefully price our products at a premium to reflect the exceptional quality, exclusive designs that can’t be found elsewhere, and ethical production methods we use. Our focus is on outstanding craftsmanship and creativity over mass production.
Are your designs really unique?
Absolutely. Each design is originally illustrated by our talented in-house graphic artists and can only be found in our collections. We pour our hearts into creating truly special pieces.
What makes the quality better than cheaper alternatives?
From the fabric weave, to the construction, stitching, and hand-printed designs – every detail is carefully crafted for maximum durability and comfort. We use high materials proven to last.
Why don’t you offer lower cost options?
Keeping prices low would mean sacrificing the quality, creativity, and ethical standards we are committed to. We aim to provide an unmatched product despite the higher prices.
Is the higher price tag worth it?
For those who value wearing original art and some of the finest apparel available, our products are well worth the investment. They are made to be treasured for years.
Aren’t there even more expensive brands than you?
It’s true, while we are priced higher than fast fashion, there are some luxury and designer labels with even higher price points than ours. We position ourselves in the middle – elevated quality and exclusivity over mass market brands, but without reaching the RM500+ price tags of high-end fashion.
Why aren’t your prices on par with luxury brands?
We aim to offer an accessible luxury experience. While our products are made to exude premium quality, we price them reasonably compared to brands selling RM500+ t-shirts. Our goal is to reach customers seeking exceptional craftsmanship at aspirational but not prohibitive prices.
Do your products compare to designer quality?
We take immense pride in providing near luxury-level product excellence and unique original designs at more attainable prices. While not yet at the pinnacle of fashion, we produce apparel comparable to brands charging twice as much.

Garment Care
How should I wash your t-shirts?
We recommend washing t-shirts in cold water and tumble drying on low. Turn them inside out before washing to preserve graphics. Avoid using bleach or fabric softener.
Can I put them in the dryer?
For drying, you have two options. It is acceptable to tumble-dry the garment on a low cycle. However, to ensure the longevity of the print, it is advisable to air dry it instead.
Will graphics crack or fade with washing?
The prints are high quality and designed to withstand normal washing. Avoid using harsh detergents and do not bleach items to help preserve graphics.
Can I iron your clothes?
We do not recommend ironing t-shirts, hoodies or sweatshirts. If ironing is necessary, do so with a cool iron while the garment is inside out. Take caution not to iron directly on the print to avoid any damage.
Safe Shopping
Where can I buy your apparel line?
Our apparel line is exclusively available for purchase on our official website, hambanya.com.
I saw your products listed on another website – are they authentic?
Any offers of our apparel line on external platforms or third-party websites are unauthorized and not endorsed by us. We strongly advise customers to only purchase directly from hambanya.com.
Why should I avoid buying your clothes from third-party sites?
Purchasing from unauthorized sellers means there are no guarantees in terms of authenticity and product quality. To ensure you are getting genuine, high-quality items, only buy directly from our website.
Can other retailers legally sell your branded apparel?
No, we do not authorize or allow any third-party retailers, websites, or platforms to sell our branded clothing. Only hambanya.com sells the official real product. Beware of counterfeits.
What should I do if I see your clothes being sold somewhere else?
Please notify us if you find our apparel being sold on any other site besides hambanya.com. We work diligently to prevent unauthorized sales and counterfeiting of our branded items.
Do you have any physical store locations?
No. At this time we do not have any brick-and-mortar retail locations. Our products are only available for purchase through our website.
Why should I trust buying from your online store?

Product Disclaimer
Will the actual t-shirt print match the website picture exactly?
Please note that the actual print on the t-shirt may slightly differ from the image displayed here.
Could the colors look different in person compared to on my screen?
The colors and appearance of the design on your screen may vary slightly from the actual printed t-shirt due to variations in screen settings, calibration, and lighting conditions.
Does the design size change based on the t-shirt size I choose?
The design size on our t-shirts remains constant regardless of the chosen t-shirt size. As a result, the design may appear relatively smaller on larger-sized t-shirts and relatively bigger on smaller-sized t-shirts.
Despite any minor variations, we assure you that we take great care in delivering high-quality products that match our product images as closely as possible. Please reach out to customer service with any questions or concerns.
