Setup, Compatibility & Care
This waistcoat requires no complex setup; simply wear it over your chosen top. It is compatible with a wide array of accessories, including headbands, tinted sunglasses, and bell-bottom trousers. Regarding care, due to the delicate nature of the faux fur trim and the screen-printed graphics, the garment should be spot-cleaned or hand-washed in cold water only. Avoid using harsh detergents or bleach to preserve the colors. Always hang the item to dry in a shaded area to prevent damage to the synthetic fibers.
