General
Universal rules / all garments
-
01Temperature control
Always wash in cold or cool water, max 30°C / 86°F. Hot water shrinks cotton and fades dyes.
-
02No bleach, no harsh chemicals
Bleach destroys cotton fibers and ruins prints. Use a mild liquid detergent only.
-
03Separate colors
Wash darks, lights and whites separately to avoid color transfer.
Tees & polos
Jersey / interlock / mesh
-
01Turn inside out
Protects graphic prints from friction against the machine drum and other clothes.
-
02Air dry in the shade
Tumble dryer heat is the main cause of shrinkage and cracked prints.
-
03Iron inside out
Never iron directly on the print. Use low heat, inside out.
Pro tipDon't hang a wet T-shirt by the neck. The water weight stretches the collar. Fold it over the hanger bar instead.
Hoodies & fleece
Hoodies / sweats / heavyweight
-
01Prevent pilling
Turn inside out and wash on a gentle or delicate cycle to reduce surface friction.
-
02Zip it up
Close the zipper before washing. An open zipper snags and damages other items in the load.
-
03Dry flat
Heavyweight cotton holds a lot of water. Hanging it wet stretches it vertically. Lay it flat to dry.
Raw denim
Specialist care
Warning / indigo bleed
-
01Wait 6 months
Delay the first wash as long as you can to build high-contrast fades. Spot clean stains if needed.
-
02Hand wash only
Soak in cool water with mild detergent for 45 minutes. Agitate gently. Do not wring or twist.
-
03Indigo transfer
Raw denim bleeds. Take care with white sneakers and light-colored furniture.
Accessories
Caps / bags / socks
-
01Caps
Spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Never machine wash, to keep the brim shape.
-
02Socks
Machine wash cold. Do not bleach. Air dry to keep the elasticity.
