How should I clean and maintain the shirt?
Machine wash cold (30°C) on a gentle cycle and tumble dry on low heat or air dry. Avoid bleach and high heat ironing.
Is the camouflage pattern suitable for all environments?
The Polish Woodland camouflage pattern is most effective in forested or mixed terrain. Its suitability for other environments may vary.
Are there other color options available for the SFU NEXT Shirt?
Yes, the SFU NEXT Shirt is available in other colors such as Olive Green, Black, and Shadow Grey, besides this Camouflage variant.
Troubleshooting
Shirt feels too tight or loose.
Adjust the hook-and-loop cuffs and waist tabs for a personalized fit. Consult the Helikon-Tex sizing chart for accurate measurements before purchase.
Hook-and-loop fasteners are not adhering well.
Clean the hook-and-loop surfaces with a stiff brush to remove lint and debris. Ensure the surfaces are dry before engaging.
Fabric shows signs of wear after initial use.
Inspect for snags or tears. The Ripstop weave is designed to prevent small tears from spreading. Follow care instructions to maintain fabric integrity.
Elbow pad compartments seem too small.
Ensure you are using slim-profile elbow pads designed for tactical apparel. Some bulkier pads may not fit easily. Check the dimensions of your chosen elbow pads.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Care: To maintain the durability and appearance of the shirt:
- Washing: Machine wash cold (30°C) on a gentle cycle with mild detergent.
- Drying: Tumble dry on low heat or air dry for best results. Avoid high heat which can damage the fabric.
- Ironing: If necessary, iron on a low setting. Do not iron directly on any printed areas or hook-and-loop fasteners.
- Bleaching: Do not use bleach or harsh chemicals, as they can degrade the fabric and affect the camouflage pattern.
