Garment Care Instructions
No piece of clothing will last forever, but there are steps you can take to extend its lifespan. Our garments undergo rigorous wash testing; most printed garments are designed to withstand up to 50 wash cycles. However, improper washing or drying can cause prints to deteriorate prematurely, sometimes as early as after 20 washes. Heat is the enemy. For optimal preservation, we advise washing in cold or warm water and air drying the garment by hanging.
Washing Instructions
Machine Wash
- Cold Water Wash: For most garments, cold water wash is recommended to preserve colors and prevent shrinking.
- Separate Colors: Wash dark colors separately to prevent bleeding.
- Use Mild Detergent: Opt for a mild detergent to prolong the life of your garments.
- Cycle: Use a gentle cycle to protect delicate fabrics.
- Mesh Bag: For delicate items, use a mesh laundry bag to prevent damage.
- Turn Inside Out: Turn garments inside out to minimize friction and preserve prints and embellishments.
- Avoid Bleach: Unless specified on the care label, avoid using bleach as it can damage fabrics.
Hand Wash
- Use Lukewarm Water: Fill a basin with lukewarm water and add mild detergent.
- Gently Agitate: Swirl the garment in the water without scrubbing to avoid stretching or damaging fibers.
- Rinse Thoroughly: Rinse until the water runs clear to remove all detergent residue.
Drying Instructions
Air Dry
- Flat Dry: Lay garments flat on a clean towel to dry to maintain their shape.
- Hanging: Use padded hangers for delicate items and hang to dry in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight.
Machine Dry
- Low Heat: If machine drying is suitable for your garment, use a low-heat setting to prevent shrinking or damaging fabrics.
- Remove Promptly: Remove garments promptly from the dryer to prevent wrinkles.
Ironing Instructions
- Check Fabric: Refer to the care label for ironing recommendations as some fabrics may be sensitive to heat.
- Adjust Heat: Use a low to medium heat setting based on the fabric type.
- Steam: Use a steam iron or hang garments in the bathroom during a hot shower to release wrinkles without direct ironing.
Always remember to follow the specific care instructions for each garment to ensure longevity and optimal performance.
