Norrsken

Norrsken Merch is made together with Imperfect Industries, a Swedish workshop that saves t-shirts from being discarded, restores them by hand, and prints them only once they’re ordered. Norrsken takes no profit on it: the price covers only Imperfect’s work, rescuing, restoring, printing and shipping each piece, with nothing marked up for us.

Each piece is printed only once you order, so delivery takes 7 to 14 working days. We ship across the EU, packed in paper bags made from grass fiber.

Returns follow your EU consumer rights: 14 days from delivery. Imperfect arranges the return label (79 SEK return shipping). Because every piece is printed to order, please choose your size with care.

Rescued shirts come in many brands, so Imperfect measures each one to a unisex size chart. Check it before you order.

The most sustainable t-shirt is the one that never had to be produced. Every piece is a rescued garment, restored and printed only on demand.

No. Norrsken takes no profit. You pay only for the garment to be rescued, printed and shipped by Imperfect.

Made for the Norrsken ecosystem and the people moving it forward, from EU electrification to climate. Each campaign is its own page; some open to everyone, some behind a code.

01 Sorting & inspection

All our t-shirts come from second-hand shops where they risk being discarded or exported. We first sort through everything we receive. T-shirts that are torn, have permanent stains or are of different quality or model are sorted out.

02 Laundry

We wash all sweaters in perfume-free detergent and energy-efficient machines.

03 Measurement

The shirts that come to us are of many different brands and qualities. To ensure uniform sizes, we have developed a unisex size chart.

04 Labeling & storage

We brand all our t-shirts with our own logo on the neck, but most of the time you can see the original brand. We also add a removable size sticker that indicates our unisex size.

05 Ordering & printing

When an order comes in, it tells us which motif and which t-shirt to print. We usually print within 2 working days of receiving the order.

06 Final handling & final check

After the shirt is printed, it is steam pressed and checked one last time. We ship our customer orders in brown paper bags made from grass fiber.
