Troubleshooting
T-shirt appears faded after washing.
Ensure you are washing the garment inside out in cold water and avoiding harsh detergents. Air drying or low heat tumble drying can also help preserve color.
Print on the back or chest is cracking or peeling.
Avoid direct ironing on the printed areas. Always iron the garment inside out on a low setting. Reduce high heat during tumble drying.
T-shirt feels stiff after washing.
Use a fabric softener on a gentle cycle or consider air drying instead of tumble drying.
Shrinkage after first wash.
While 100% cotton can experience some shrinkage, pre-shrunk fabrics minimize this. Follow washing instructions carefully, especially regarding water temperature and drying heat.
