MONO B Essential Micro-ribbed Cropped Athleisure Tee

How to measure

Measure the garment laid flat or a similarly fitted tee to compare. When measuring, keep the fabric relaxed (unless you want stretched measurements) and use a soft tape measure.

• Chest / Bust: Lay the tee flat and measure straight across 1" (2.5 cm) below the armholes from seam to seam. Double that number for full circumference.
• Waist / Body width: Measure across the narrowest part of the torso area (or where the tee naturally sits) and double for circumference.
• Length: From the highest point of the shoulder (where the shoulder seam meets the neckline) straight down to the hem.
• Shoulder width: Across the back from shoulder seam to shoulder seam.
• Sleeve length: From the shoulder seam to the sleeve hem (for short sleeves).
• Hem opening: Measure across the bottom hem and double for circumference.
• Tip: For ribbed/stretch fabrics, measure both unstretched and gently stretched to know range. Allow 1–3" (2.5–7.5 cm) ease depending on the desired fit.

Materials & fabric details

This tee is crafted from a micro-rib knit that balances softness, structure, and stretch.

• Typical composition: Micro-rib knit constructed from a soft cellulosic fiber (modal/viscose/rayon) blended with a small percent of elastane/spandex for stretch and recovery. Common blends are around 90–96% modal/viscose/rayon + 4–10% elastane—exact fibers and percentages may vary by batch or color; check the garment tag for the precise composition.
• Fabric properties: Ultra-soft hand, lightweight, breathable, four-way stretch, good drape and recovery, low to medium opacity, and subtle texture from the micro ribs.
• Performance: Comfortable for everyday wear and low-impact workouts; rib texture helps the tee hold shape and provides a flattering, form-skimming silhouette.

Care guide (to keep it lovely longer)

• Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with like colors, or hand wash for extra care.
• Use a mild detergent and avoid bleach or harsh stain removers.
• Turn the tee inside out before washing to protect texture and color.
• Avoid fabric softeners and dryer sheets to preserve breathability and moisture-management properties.
• Lay flat to dry or tumble dry on low. Reshape while damp and remove promptly from the dryer to avoid distortion.
• If ironing is needed, use a low-heat setting or a steamer; do not apply high heat directly to elastane fibers.
• Store folded rather than hanging to prevent shoulder stretching; keep away from Velcro and rough surfaces to reduce snags and pilling.
• Use a fabric shaver or gentle lint roller to remove any pills—do so carefully to preserve the ribs.

Style tips

• Pair with high‑rise leggings or biker shorts for a cohesive athleisure set—matching colors or tones creates a streamlined look.
• Layer under an oversized denim jacket, bomber, or utility vest for casual streetwear vibes.
• Dress it up by tucking into high‑waist trousers or a skirt and adding a cropped blazer and ankle boots for an elevated casual outfit.
• For workouts, pair with moisture-wicking or compression bottoms; the micro-rib tee works well as a light cover-up over a sports bra.
• Accessorize with delicate chains for a minimalist look, or add chunky sneakers and a cap for a sporty, on-the-go ensemble.
• Size guidance: choose your usual size for a fitted crop; size up if you want a longer or boxier silhouette.
