FAQs

What does 'Spotshield' mean for this sweatshirt?

Spotshield is a fabric technology that provides resistance to stains and moisture, helping liquids bead up and roll off the surface rather than soaking in. It also contributes to fade resistance.

What is the material composition?

The sweatshirt is made from a blend of 50% Combed Ringspun Cotton and 50% Polyester, with a fabric weight of 295gsm.

Are raglan sleeves different from set-in sleeves?

Yes, raglan sleeves have a diagonal seam running from the underarm to the neckline, allowing for greater freedom of movement compared to traditional set-in sleeves.

Is this sweatshirt suitable for very cold weather?

It provides good warmth due to its fabric weight and ribbed cuffs/hem, making it suitable for cooler weather or as a layering piece. For extreme cold, additional layers or a heavier outer garment would be recommended.

What does 'Oeko-Tex Standard 100 Certified' mean?

This certification indicates that the textile has been tested for harmful substances and is safe for human health.

How do I ensure I order the correct size?

Refer to the product's size chart, which provides specific measurements for chest, waist, and length. It's recommended to compare these with a similar garment you already own that fits well.

Can this sweatshirt be worn by women?

While designed with men in mind ('gender: Male'), its regular fit and classic crew neck style might be suitable for women looking for a relaxed or oversized fit. Checking the size chart is crucial for determining fit.

Troubleshooting

Stains are not repelling as effectively after several washes.

This is a common occurrence as the Spotshield treatment naturally degrades over time with extensive washing and drying. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can accelerate this. For heavy stains that do soak through, treat them promptly according to standard stain removal guides for cotton blends, but be aware that the initial resistance may be lessened.

Shrinkage after washing.

While designed to minimize shrinkage, some minor change can occur. Ensure you are washing in cold water and tumble drying on a low heat setting. Remove from the dryer promptly and lay flat or hang to finish drying if needed.

Fading of the red color.

The Spotshield technology includes fade resistance, but all colored garments can experience some fading over time. Washing in cold water, turning the garment inside out before washing, and avoiding direct sunlight during drying can help preserve the color.

Care Instructions:

To maintain the integrity of the fabric and the effectiveness of the Spotshield treatment, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Washing: Machine wash cold with like colors. Use a mild detergent.
  2. Bleaching: Do not use bleach.
  3. Drying: Tumble dry on low heat. Remove promptly to prevent wrinkling.
  4. Ironing: If ironing is necessary, use a cool iron setting. Avoid ironing directly on any printed graphics if present on other variants.
  5. Dry Cleaning: Do not dry clean.
  6. Spotshield Maintenance: Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can reduce the effectiveness of the stain-resistant finish. Repeated washing and drying cycles may gradually diminish the Spotshield properties over time.
