Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because this garment is made of cotton, following proper care instructions is essential to maintain its texture and fit. Turn the sweatshirt inside out before placing it in the washing machine to protect the iconic Polo Bear graphic from abrasion. Use a gentle cycle with cold water and mild detergent. Avoid bleach, which can weaken the natural fibers and cause the black color to fade prematurely. To minimize shrinking, it is recommended to air dry the garment flat whenever possible, although it can be tumble dried on a low heat setting if absolutely necessary. Ensure you check the sizing label for the specific '6' size specification to verify it matches your child's current growth stage.
