Troubleshooting

Broderie pattern looks distorted after washing.

Ensure the garment was washed on a delicate cycle with minimal agitation. Avoid harsh detergents and high heat during drying. Hand washing may be preferable for longevity.

Shorts feel stiff after washing.

Try ironing on a low heat setting while the fabric is slightly damp. Ensure you are using a fabric softener suitable for cotton if needed, though typically not required for high-quality cotton.

Color bleeding from red fabric.

Wash the shorts separately for the first few washes, especially in cold water, to prevent color transfer to other garments.
