Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your washable period pants, proper care is essential. Always wash the garment before the first use. For routine cleaning, you may rinse the pants under cold water to remove excess fluid before placing them in a cool machine wash cycle or washing by hand. Do not use bleach or fabric softeners, as these can compromise the absorbent fibers. The pants must be air-dried to maintain their shape and function; avoid using a tumble dryer or heat sources as these can damage the specialized leak-proof barrier.
