Questions, answered
Everything people actually write to us about β the bakery project, sizing, shipping, customs, the fabric. If your question is not here, a human replies Monday to Friday.
The bakery project
Is this a donation, or a fundraiser?
Neither. You buy a Broissant piece at its normal price and Broissant puts its revenue toward opening the bakery. We are a company, not a nonprofit: nothing here is tax-deductible, there is no donate button, and no percentage is promised on top of your order.
What does the number on the counter mean?
It tracks the Broissant sales revenue counted toward the $500,000 needed to open. It is a progress figure for the project, not a bank balance sitting in a separate account. We update it as orders come in.
Why $500,000?
That is what it takes to go from an internet joke to a door you can walk through: the lease and deposit, the build-out, ovens and cold storage, the first months of flour, and a team that knows what it is doing at 4am. If it costs less, the extra goes into the next one.
Where will the bakery be?
Texas first β it is where Eros lives and where the drive-thru croissant problem is most urgent. We will announce the city once a lease is signed, not before.
When does it open?
When the build is funded and the paperwork is done. We would rather open one good bakery late than three bad ones on schedule. Every milestone is published on The Bakery page as it is reached.
What will you actually sell there?
Baguette tradition, croissants, pain au chocolat, pΓ’tisserie on weekends, and espresso all day. French flour, French hours, nothing frozen and nothing shipped in on a truck at 6am.
What happens if it never opens?
Then it never opens, and we say so here. Broissant stays a clothing brand and you still have a heavyweight tee you paid a normal price for. Your order is a purchase, not a pledge on a project β you are never owed a refund because a bakery took longer than planned.
Do I get anything as an early customer?
The updates first, and the address before the internet has it. Anyone who orders before the doors open hears from us ahead of the announcement.
Can I invest in the bakery?
Not through the site. Buying a hoodie does not make you a shareholder, and we do not take investment through Shopify. If you want to talk business, write to contact@broissant.co.
How often is the counter updated?
Weekly at minimum. If it has not moved in a while, it is because sales have not moved β not because we stopped looking.
Sizing & fit
How does the sizing run?
True to size, with a boxy body and dropped shoulders. Our model is 5β²9β³ / 175 cm and wears a M. If you are between two sizes, or you want the relaxed drape you see in the photos, take the larger one. Full measurements are in the size guide on every product page.
Should I size up or down?
Stay true to size for the drape in the campaign photos. Size up one for a properly oversized look. On hoodies only, size down one if you want a regular fit β they are cut generously.
What size does the model wear?
On the tees, 5β²9β³ / 175 cm wearing a M. On the hoodies, the same model wears a M for the drape you see. Every product page lists the height and size of the person in the shot.
Do the tees and hoodies fit the same?
Nearly. Both are boxy with a dropped shoulder, but the hoodie is cut wider through the body for layering. If you wear a M in the tee, a M in the hoodie will feel roomier.
Are the pieces unisex?
The cut is the same across Women and Men β we split the two so you can see the piece on a body closer to yours before you choose a size. Order from whichever side you like.
Shipping & delivery
When will my order ship?
Everything on the site is in stock and packed in Austin. You get a tracking email the moment your parcel leaves us, and a human will always answer if you want an update in the meantime.
How long does delivery take once shipped?
United States: 3 to 5 days. Worldwide: 7 to 12 days. Both tracked door to door from Austin, Texas.
How much is shipping?
$9 flat, anywhere we ship, and free over $70 β the same for a US order and an order to the other side of the world.
Which countries do you ship to?
27 countries, tracked from Austin, Texas. If your country is not in the checkout list yet, write to us β we add countries as the club grows.
Will I pay customs or import taxes?
Outside the United States we cannot pre-pay local import VAT, so your carrier collects it on delivery. In the EU there is no customs duty below β¬150 of goods, only VAT.
My tracking has not moved. What now?
Tracking often sits still for a day or two after it is created, then jumps several steps at once. If nothing has moved after five working days, reply to your shipping email and we will chase the carrier for you.
Can I change my delivery address?
Yes, as long as the parcel has not shipped. Reply to your order confirmation with the new address as early as you can and we will update it before it goes out.
Returns & exchanges
What if the size is wrong?
Size exchanges are on us. Reply to your order email, tell us the size you need, and we send it out β you keep the first one until the replacement arrives.
What is your returns window?
30 days from delivery, on unworn pieces with the tags still on. Tell us first by email so we can send you the right address for your country.
Who pays for the return postage?
If the mistake is ours β wrong item, wrong size sent, a fault β we cover it. If you simply changed your mind, the return postage is on you.
When do I get my refund?
Once the parcel is back with us, the refund goes to the original payment method and lands within a few business days, depending on your bank.
Can I cancel an order?
Yes, as long as it has not shipped. Reply to your confirmation email quickly and we will cancel and refund it.
Product & care
What is in the collection right now?
Three tee designs at $50, three hoodie designs at $70, two caps at $30, crew socks at $15 and the insulated cup at $35. The ready-to-wear is cut and photographed for women and for men; the caps, socks and cup are the same for everyone. Everything you can see on the site is in stock.
What is the fabric, exactly?
The tees are 250 gsm, 100% cotton β roughly 40% heavier than a standard brand tee, which is why they hang instead of clinging and do not go see-through. The hoodies are 400 gsm brushed fleece, also 100% cotton.
How is the artwork printed?
The tees and hoodies are screen-printed front and back with water-based ink β it sinks into the fabric instead of sitting on top of it, so there is no plastic hand feel and no cracking after a few washes. The caps are embroidered, not printed.
How do I care for it?
Cold wash inside out, no tumble dryer, no ironing directly on the print. Treated that way the artwork will outlive the shirt.
Will a sold-out piece come back?
Not automatically. We work in small runs and then move on to the next design, so a colour that sells out usually stays gone. Tap βNotify meβ on the piece you want and you will hear first if the club votes it back.
Do the caps and socks come in sizes?
No β one size. The caps have an adjustable strap at the back and the socks are crew length. Nothing to choose, nothing to get wrong.
Is the cup dishwasher safe?
Hand wash only, and never in the microwave β it is double-walled stainless steel. Treated that way it keeps coffee hot and iced coffee cold all day.
Orders & payment
Which payment methods do you take?
All major cards, PayPal, Shop Pay and Apple Pay. Everything is handled by Shopify β we never see your card details.
Is there a discount for a first order?
Yes. Joining the club by email gets you 10% off your first order with the code sent in the welcome email. One code, no tiers, no points.
Can I add something to an order I already placed?
We cannot merge orders once they are in, but reply to your confirmation and we will ship the two together and refund the second shipping charge.
I never received my confirmation email.
Check the promotions and spam folders first β it comes from contact@broissant.co. If it is nowhere, write to us with the name and email you used and we will resend it.
In which currency am I charged?
US dollars. Your bank converts at its own rate on the day, so the amount on your statement may differ slightly from the total at checkout.
The club
What is the Broissant Club?
One email when something happens β a drop, a restock, a run that is nearly gone. No points, no tiers, no weekly newsletter. Members get the link first and the runs are deliberately small.
Are you an actual bakery?
Not yet. Broissant started as a joke about living between a Paris bakery and a Texas drive-thru, and the croissant has been the mascot ever since. A real bakery is where this is heading β the club hears about it first, as always.
How do I get in touch with a human?
Write to contact@broissant.co. A person replies, Monday to Friday, usually the same day. Not a bot, not a ticket number.
Where is Broissant made and shipped from?
Designed and made in small runs in Austin, Texas β screen-printed on the ready-to-wear, embroidered on the caps β and shipped worldwide from there. Franglais by way of a Paris bakery and a Texas sidewalk.
Do you restock or do new drops?
Mostly new drops. A design that sells out makes room for the next one β which is why the club list matters if there is a piece you want.
Nothing matches that.
Still stuck?
Your question is not on this page?
Write to us and a person answers β Monday to Friday, usually the same day. Sizing, a parcel that has not moved, a colour you are hoping comes back: nothing is too small to ask.
