Garment Care
Keep it in rotation.
Good gear lasts longer when it’s washed properly. Check the sewn-in care label first. It has the right instructions for that specific fabric and finish.
The basics
- Wash cold with similar colours.
- Turn garments inside out before washing.
- Use a gentle cycle and mild detergent.
- Skip bleach and fabric softener.
- Reshape and air dry in the shade.
- Only use a dryer when the care label says it is safe.
Seamless and training pieces
Use a laundry bag and keep them away from towels, Velcro, open zips and anything rough that can catch the fabric. Remove bra cups before washing, then reshape them and let everything air dry.
Tees, hoodies and trackies
Wash inside out on a cold, gentle cycle. Reshape while damp and air dry. If the care label allows tumble drying, use the lowest heat setting.
Prints and logos
Do not iron directly over prints, transfers or logos. Turn the garment inside out and use low heat around decorated areas only when the care label permits ironing.
Bags and beanies
Spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap, then air dry completely. Avoid the washing machine unless the product’s care label specifically says otherwise.
