Questions
Where do the lines come from?
From the Copernicus 30 m elevation model (GLO-30), made from satellite radar. We draw each place’s height as contour lines at one fixed step, from every 2 m on the flattest ground to every 100 m on the highest peaks, and mark the survey grid with a + every 0.05°.
How is it printed?
Big on the back of the tees and hoodies, about 27 × 35 cm, and on the front of the crewnecks; edge to edge on the full relief tee; small on the chest of the contour plate tee. Near-black ink on light colours, bone ink on dark ones. The hats carry a round contour seal, embroidered. The prints are near-black on a warm paper white.
Are these maps to find my way by?
No. They are drawings of the shape of the ground, for wear and walls, not for navigation or safety. Paths, roads and borders are not on them.
Did a park or agency make them?
No. We draw them ourselves from the Copernicus elevation data. No park, government body, agency or programme made them or stands behind them.

Write to hello@miniblank.com with its name. New places join the list from time to time.
What colours are the clothes and hats?
Each piece shows its colours on its page: four to six for the tees, four or five for the hoodies and crewnecks, four to six for the hats. Near-black ink on the light ones, bone ink on the dark ones; black thread or white on the hats.
Do the prints come framed?
The contour print comes unframed on matte paper, 12 × 16, 18 × 24 or 24 × 32 in (30 × 40, 45 × 60 or 60 × 80 cm), sent rolled. The framed print comes ready to hang, 12 × 16 or 18 × 24 in.
Can I send it as a gift?
Yes. Enter their address at checkout and it goes straight to them, shipped free.
How do I choose my size?
Every tee, crewneck and hoodie has its fit and sizes in the size guide, with tables in centimetres where we have them. The oversized and faded tees run big: your usual size wears loose, one down sits closer. The hats are one size.
Do prices change with size?
Only for the prints: the bigger the print, the higher the price. The exact price shows when you pick a size. Shipping stays free.
How long does delivery take?
Your piece is made after you order, then shipped to you. Orders arrive between 11 and 18 Nov, with free tracked shipping.
Where do you ship?
To 75 countries, including the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Qatar, Nigeria, Kenya, India and Pakistan. The full list is at checkout. Shipping is free on every order. The 6-panel cap and the framed print cannot ship to Ukraine. Each says so on its page.
Any customs charges?
The carrier may collect import tax or duties on delivery, under your country’s rules. Those go to your government or the carrier, not to us.
Where is it made?
By a production partner at one of its print and embroidery shops around the world, then sent straight to you.
How do I look after it?
Wash cold, inside out, hang to dry and never iron the print. Spot-clean the hats. Keep a print out of direct sun and damp.
Can I change or cancel?
Yes, within 2 hours of ordering, before making starts. Write to hello@miniblank.com.
Can I send it back?
Not for size or a change of mind: it was made for you. Damaged, misprinted or wrong: we replace it or refund you. Write within 14 days of delivery with a photo. Details in the replacements policy.
