FAQs

What is Belcoro yarn?

Belcoro yarn is a type of yarn used by Fruit of the Loom that is produced to be softer and have a cleaner surface, which is ideal for comfortable wear and improved printing results.

Is this sweatshirt suitable for very cold weather?

With a weight of 280g/m², it offers good warmth for cooler temperatures. For extremely cold conditions, layering may be advisable.

Can I customize this sweatshirt with my own design?

Yes, the production method using Belcoro yarn is designed to provide a cleaner surface, making it suitable for printing custom designs, logos, or artwork.

What does 'raglan sleeve' mean?

Raglan sleeves are characterized by seams that run diagonally from the underarm to the collarbone, offering a classic sweatshirt look and allowing for greater freedom of movement compared to standard set-in sleeves.

How should I care for the ribbed cuffs and waist?

The ribbed cuffs and waist are made with cotton/lycra for shape retention. To preserve their elasticity, wash on a warm cycle (40°C) and tumble dry on a medium or low heat setting. Avoid high heat.

Is this sweatshirt only for boys or girls?

This is a unisex garment, designed to be suitable for children of any gender.

What is the fabric composition?

The fabric is composed of 80% cotton (specifically Belcoro yarn) and 20% polyester.

Troubleshooting

Sweatshirt appears to have shrunk after washing.

Ensure you are following the recommended washing and drying instructions. Avoid high heat drying, as this can cause shrinkage, especially with cotton blends. If shrinkage occurred, try stretching the garment gently while damp.

Print quality is poor after customization.

Ensure the garment was pre-treated according to the printing method's requirements. The Belcoro yarn offers a cleaner printing surface, but proper preparation is still key for best results.

Ribbing at cuffs or waist has lost elasticity.

Check washing and drying temperatures. Overheating in the dryer can degrade the elastic fibers in the cotton/lycra ribbing. Avoid high-heat drying cycles.

Color fades quickly.

Wash the garment inside out in cold or warm water with mild detergent. Avoid using bleach. Tumble dry on a low setting or hang to dry.
