Sizing
Our sizing
Sizing is not standard (but it should be), which is why we approach sizing a bit differently.
Each style has its own individual size chart, these charts show exactly how each garment measures when laid flat.Why do we do it like this? We prefer not to guess how clothes might fit you since everything about you is so unique.
We design by fits
MAKING SENSE OF OUR FITS:
Based on picking your usual go-to size:Slim Fit= fitted.Regular Fit= fits along your body.Relaxed Fit= fits away from your body. Loose Fit = fits approx 1/2 -1 size larger.Size up or down for your personal desired fit.
BRING SIZE AND FIT TOGETHER:
We suggest you start with your go-to size >check the fit >check the size chart to make sure it will be as loose or fitted as you personally prefer.And if that doesn’t work, use the chat option on the bottom right. Helping to pick a size is our not-so-secret superpower.
Where is your size chart?
Each style has its own unique size chart (the link is located just above the sizes on each styles page). These size charts show exactly how the unique garment measures.

- We will happily fix or accept defective items within the first week (or two) of ownership (as a defect will show quickly or after the first couple of wears). Unfortunately, we cannot accept items that have been worn out from wear and tear. We always try to make items that last a very long time, but sadly we cannot guarantee any specific length of time as this is different for us.

Use our discounted return label (the return postage fee will be subtracted from your return).
Americans:
Use our discounted return label (the return postage fee will be subtracted from your return. Or use your own label (note we cannot accept packages with C.O.D charges)
What if my item is defective?
When something arrives already ruined (for whatever reason), if you notice a knitting hole, stitches are unfinished, or something else after approx 1 or 2 wears.
Unfortunately, we cannot fix items after regular wear and tear come into play (worn holes, popped stitches, or tears are all examples). We try our best to make clothes that last but wear and tear is very different for all, and we cannot guarantee a length of time for any garment.
Unfortunately, we are not large enough to fix items or offer refunds for items that have been worn or show regular signs of wear. If you like, you can email us (at help@wearfranc.com) with photos, but be prepared if your order is more than a week or two old and shows signs of regular wear and tear, we may not be able to accept it for a fix.

We focus on natural fibre fabrics that feel great, are comfortable, can be machine washed (in cold) and hangs in all the right ways off bodies. Check the FABRIC+CARE tab on each item to see details for each style.

All our fabrics are be knit and dyed (using Bluesign dyes) in Toronto, using TENCEL blended yarns that have been spun and dyed specifically for us.
the FABRIC+CARE tab on each item to see details for each style.
Where do you get your raw material? Where do you source your fabric from?
Our fabric is custom knit and dyed for us here in Toronto. As for the material, the TENCEL is from Austria, and our GOTS Organic Cotton is from Turkey. Both materials are spun into yarns in a certified facility in Turkey.
Pre-orders: Will all my items ship together?
You are more than welcome to purchase in-stock and preorder items in the same order, but please note that all items will ship together once in stock.
Why? We are a sustainable brand and offset all carbon from shipping orders, so shipping is carbon neutral, and we can only offset one shipment per order.
Pre-orders: Can you explain the pre-order "stages"?
The first preorder stage will happen before we book production, and will run for 7-10 days. This allows you the chance to choose the colours and sizes you want - and we will secure your order when we book production. Furthermore, since this is incredibly sustainable and helps us not to overproduce, we will reward you with 15% off if you purchase during this stage.
The second preorder stage will be ongoing while productions are happening. You can purchase from the colours and sizes currently being cut and sewn. This way, you do not have to wait or run the risk of items selling out. Since you are ordering early, we will reward you with 10% off.
Lastly, once the items are in stock, you can order based on what is left on hand - often, some sizes might have already sold out. In-stock items are at full price.
PRE-ORDER: lock in your size - 15% discount
PRODUCTION: limited units - 10% discount
IN-STOCK: limited to stock on hand
Launching in tiers will ensure we do not overproduce (more sustainable) and we produce what you want while being able to reward you for shopping sustainably and help ease our price increases.
Pre-orders: Can I return Pre-order items?
Yes, definitely. But since it is sustainable to shop during a pre-order, it's always best to try to refrain from unneeded returns when possible (though we know most returns fit under the needed category) since returns can be hard on the environment and expensive. But of course, NO SHADE when they are required.
