Troubleshooting

Shirt appears faded after washing

Ensure you are using a colour-safe detergent and washing with similar colours. Avoid overloading the washing machine. Check the care label for specific temperature guidelines.

Shirt has shrunk significantly

Confirm that the garment was washed and dried according to the care instructions. High heat in washing or drying can cause shrinkage, even in garments designed to resist it.

Stains are difficult to remove

Treat stains promptly with a suitable stain remover before washing. For stubborn stains, a pre-soak might be necessary. Always test stain removers on an inconspicuous area first.

Pilling on the fabric surface

Although designed to be low-pill, excessive friction (e.g., rubbing against backpacks) can sometimes cause pilling. Gentle washing and avoiding rough contact can help mitigate this.
