## What is Blacksunset?
Blacksunset is a minimalist streetwear brand founded in 2019 in Tartu, Estonia. We make minimalist t-shirts across three collections: Statement Series (bold text-based designs with honest messages), Coastal & Illustration Series (minimalist surf, nature, and graphic artwork), and Photography Series (street and documentary photography printed on fabric). All printed on premium Stanley/Stella Creator 2.0 (STTU169) organic cotton. Every piece is made to order — zero waste, zero overproduction.

## Philosophy
"If the sentence doesn't feel true, it doesn't go on a shirt."
Every design starts with a sentence that refuses to leave. Not a slogan. Not a trend. Just words that earned their place on fabric. Made to order means zero overproduction — each shirt is printed specifically when you order it.

## Shipping
Ships to all 27 EU member states plus EEA countries. 
Shipped from EU fulfillment centers — no customs fees for EU customers.
Free shipping over €75. Standard: €4.95.
14-day return policy under EU consumer rights.

## Care Instructions
Wash at 30°C with similar colours. Wash and iron inside out. Do not bleach. Do not tumble dry. Do not dry clean. Do not iron directly on print.

## Environmental Impact
Each shirt produces approximately 2.08 kg CO₂ from raw material to your door, and uses 0.99 m³ of water. By making to order, we eliminate the waste of unsold inventory.

## Languages
Available in 15 European languages: English, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Dutch, Polish, Portuguese, Swedish, Finnish, Danish, Greek, Czech, Romanian, Hungarian.
