Troubleshooting

Pilling or fuzz on the fabric

This can occur with natural fibers like cotton. Gentle washing and air drying can minimize this. If it occurs, a fabric shaver can be used carefully.

Color fading

Always wash inside out in cold water and use a mild detergent. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when drying.

Zipper feels stiff

Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If it persists, a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) applied to the teeth can help lubricate it.

Shirt has lost its shape

Ensure you are following the washing and drying instructions carefully. Reshape the garment while damp and air dry flat or hang.
