FAQ

1) Are these official World Expo / World’s Fair products?

No. World Expo Archive creates original designs inspired by historical world fair and exposition visual culture. These items are not official event merchandise.

2) When will my order ship?

Most items are printed to order. Processing and shipping times vary by product and destination. Please check the product page and shipping updates at checkout for the most accurate estimate.

3) Why does the print look slightly faded or distressed?

That’s intentional. Many designs use an archive-print aesthetic with subtle distressing, ink wear, or vintage-style texture to reflect the visual character of old printed materials.

4) How do the shirts fit?

Fit varies slightly by garment style (standard tee, heavyweight tee, ringer tee, etc.). Please check the size guide on each product page before ordering.

5) Do you offer returns or exchanges?

Please see the Returns & Exchanges page for full details. If there’s a problem with your order (misprint, damage, wrong item), contact us and we’ll make it right.

6) Will designs restock?

Some core pieces may restock. Limited drops or special colorways may not return. Joining the archive list is the best way to hear about restocks and new releases.

7) Will you make designs for specific fairs/cities?

Yes — future collections and episode companion pieces will expand across more fairs, cities, and design themes over time.
