What material is the Craghoppers Kiwi Long Sleeved Shirt made from?

The Craghoppers Kiwi Long Sleeved Shirt is made from Polyester, a material known for its durability, comfort, and ability to retain its shape well over time.

How should I properly wash this shirt to maintain its quality?

For best care, machine wash the shirt cold with similar colors using a mild detergent. You should tumble dry on a low heat setting or, preferably, hang dry it. Avoid using bleach, and if ironing is necessary, do so on a low heat setting.

Troubleshooting

Shirt feels less breathable than expected in very warm conditions

While durable, polyester may retain heat more than natural fibers in extreme temperatures. Consider pairing it with a moisture-wicking base layer for enhanced comfort or choosing lighter-colored apparel for better heat reflection in future purchases.

Static cling occurs after washing or drying

To reduce static, add a liquid fabric softener during the rinse cycle of your wash or use a dryer sheet when tumble drying. Ensure the shirt is not over-dried, as excessive dryness can increase static.

Wrinkles appear after washing and drying

Remove the shirt promptly from the dryer or clothesline once dry. For air drying, smooth out any wrinkles and hang it on a hanger immediately. If needed, iron on the lowest heat setting appropriate for polyester.

It is specifically mentioned as the perfect partner for Craghoppers Kiwi walking trousers, creating a cohesive and functional outdoor outfit. ### Care To maintain the shirt's durability, protective properties, and overall appearance, follow these general guidelines for polyester clothing: 1. Washing: Machine wash cold with like colors to prevent color bleeding and preserve fabric integrity. 2. Detergent: Use a mild detergent. Avoid bleach, as it can severely damage polyester fibers and fade the color. 3. Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or, for best results, hang dry. Polyester dries quickly and hanging helps maintain its shape and reduces wrinkles. 4. Ironing: If necessary, iron on a low heat setting. High heat can melt or damage polyester fibers. 5. Storage: Store the shirt in a cool, dry place. Ensure it is clean and completely dry before storing to prevent odors or mildew growth.
