FAQs

What does 'garment dyed' and 'laminated' mean for this sweatshirt?

Garment dyed means the entire finished garment is dyed, creating a unique, often slightly faded or worn look. Laminated with a highly reflective film incorporates thousands of glass microspheres into the fabric's surface. This process results in a unique, one-of-a-kind appearance with a distinct worn aesthetic and a highly reflective finish.

Is the reflective finish durable?

The reflective finish is designed to be durable under proper care. However, it is sensitive to abrasive cleaning, high heat, and harsh chemicals, which can degrade the reflective properties over time. Following the specific care instructions is crucial for maintaining its integrity.

Can I wear this in the rain?

While the lamination offers some barrier, this garment is primarily designed as a warm, statement piece, not a waterproof jacket. It may offer minimal water resistance but is not intended for heavy rain.

How do I know if I have the right size?

Refer to the Stone Island sizing chart provided with the product listing. This fleecewear is intended for adult males and has a specific fit profile.

What is the main advantage of organic cotton fleece?

Organic cotton fleece is known for its softness, breathability, and warmth. Using organic cotton also means it's produced without harmful pesticides, making it a more environmentally conscious choice.

Why does each garment look slightly different?

The unique appearance is due to the artisanal garment dyeing and washing process applied after lamination. This makes every piece distinct and unrepeatable, with variations in color and texture being a deliberate feature.

Troubleshooting

Reflective film appears dull or scratched

This can occur from improper washing or drying. Ensure you are washing inside out, using mild detergent, and air-drying flat away from heat. Minor scuffs may be unavoidable with extensive wear due to the nature of the material.

Garment feels stiff after washing

The stiffness is often due to the lamination process. Gentle wear and air drying should gradually soften the material. Ensure you are not using fabric softeners, which can damage the reflective coating.

Uneven color or appearance

This is an intentional characteristic of the garment dyeing and artisanal washing process. Each piece is unique, and variations in color and texture are part of its design.

Zipper is difficult to move

Ensure the fabric around the zipper is clear of obstructions. If the zipper feels sticky, try gently running a graphite pencil along the teeth. Avoid forcing the zipper.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Care Instructions: Due to the specialized reflective lamination and garment dyeing process, careful washing is essential:

  1. Washing: Machine wash cold (30°C) on a gentle cycle. Wash inside out to protect the outer finish.
  2. Detergent: Use a mild detergent. Avoid bleach or harsh chemicals.
  3. Drying: Do not tumble dry. Lay flat to air dry away from direct sunlight or heat sources to prevent damage to the reflective film.
  4. Ironing: Iron on a low setting, *inside out only*. Avoid direct contact with the reflective surface.
  5. Dry Cleaning: Not recommended, as harsh chemicals can degrade the lamination.
