Troubleshooting

Shrinking after washing

Ensure you are following the care instructions precisely, particularly regarding washing temperature and drying method. Avoid high heat drying.

Print fading or cracking

Wash the garment inside out on a gentle cycle with mild detergent. Avoid direct ironing on any printed areas; iron on the reverse side only with low heat.

Loss of shape

Check that the garment is not being over-dried on high heat. The cotton/Lycra® ribbing is designed for shape retention, but excessive heat can compromise this.
