Product Information
Full details
The Shires Tikaboo Sweatshirt is designed for young equestrians and active children who need a warm, comfortable layer for daily use. Crafted from soft-touch cotton-rich fabric with a cozy brushed inner lining, this sweatshirt provides excellent comfort during barn chores or casual play. While its oversized fit is ideal for layering over base layers, parents should note that the generous cut may feel quite loose on smaller children, so choosing the correct age-specific size is essential for the best fit.

FAQs
Is this sweatshirt true to size?
The Tikaboo Sweatshirt features an oversized fit. If you prefer a more tailored look, you may want to consider sizing down, though the extra room is intended for easy layering.
Can this be worn for riding?
Yes, its comfortable, non-restrictive fit makes it an excellent choice for casual riding and yard activities.
What is the material composition?
It is made from a soft-touch, cotton-rich fabric blend designed for warmth and durability.
Are there matching items available?
The Tikaboo line includes various sizes and styles within the same aesthetic, allowing for a coordinated look across different age groups.
Does the inner lining shed?
The brushed inner lining is designed to be soft, but some minimal shedding may occur during the first few washes. This will subside over time.
Troubleshooting
Fabric appears slightly pilled after several washes
Pilling is common with brushed cotton; use a fabric shaver gently to remove surface pills and restore the garment's appearance.
Neckline feels too loose
Ensure the shirt is being laid flat to dry, as hanging heavy wet cotton can stretch the rib-knit material of the neck.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because the Shires Tikaboo Sweatshirt arrives ready to wear, there is no setup required. To maintain the integrity of the brushed inner lining and the quality of the print, follow these care guidelines:
- Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle with similar colors using a mild detergent.
- Drying: Air drying is recommended to prevent shrinkage and to keep the brushed fabric soft; if machine drying, use a low-heat setting.
- Ironing: Avoid ironing directly over the printed graphics to prevent damage to the design.
- Storage: Fold the garment or hang it on a wide-shouldered hanger to maintain the shape of the crew neck and sleeves.
