[ FREQUENTLY ASKED ]
Common questions.
- What sizes are available?
- Softwear is adjustable by design. Most specimens ship in one size with a calibration mechanism — click, adjust, proceed. Where fixed sizes are required, the product listing states them explicitly.
- What is the returns policy?
- 30-day returns on unworn specimens in original condition. The gear must not have been activated in the field. Contact via the site to initiate.
- How does shipping work?
- SOME DOSE ships from Ireland. Standard delivery is tracked. Dispatch within 2–5 business days of prescription confirmation. International shipping available at checkout.
- What materials are used?
- Primary substrate is Merino wool — non-scratchy, non-itchy, passes sensory audit. The logo is embossed rubber with a photoluminescent compound. Full disclosure per specimen on the product page.
- How do I care for the garments?
- Hand wash cold or gentle machine cycle. Do not tumble dry. The glow compound survives washing. Hang to dry away from direct heat. Store flat or folded — not crumpled under the daily chaos.
- What is the Fashion Academy of Ireland credential?
- SOME DOSE is the label of a graduate of the Fashion Academy of Ireland (FAI). The FAI attestation — 'creativity, technical competence, and reflective awareness' — is verified and displayed on the About page. This is not a marketing claim. It is a qualification.
- What is Softwear exactly?
- Softwear is intentional wearables engineered for sensory grounding. Not fashion. Not lifestyle accessories. Active tools designed to reduce friction between the nervous system and the chronic irritation of modernity. Garments for external use only.
- Do I need to complete the Intake quiz before ordering?
- No. The Intake is optional — it helps calibrate which specimens are most relevant. You can proceed directly to the Dispensary and browse by body region.
