The repellent treatment is designed for exterior use, but if you have highly sensitive skin, it is recommended to wash the garment once before first use.
The efficacy depends on the number of wash cycles, but the treatment is designed to remain effective through many standard washes.
It is not recommended, as high heat can damage the synthetic fibers and the protective coatings.
This specific variant is the short sleeve version, ideal for maximum cooling in humid conditions.
While it is not fully waterproof, the polyester material is moisture-wicking and quick-drying, meaning it handles light perspiration or light drizzle well.
Give the shirt a firm shake or tumble it on the lowest possible heat setting for 5 minutes to restore the softness of the stretch fibers.
Hang the shirt in the bathroom while you take a warm shower; the steam will naturally help release the wrinkles without needing an iron.
Because this garment includes an anti-insect treatment, it is important to follow care instructions carefully to preserve the active ingredients. Wash in cool to warm water with a mild detergent. Avoid using harsh chemical bleaches or aggressive fabric softeners, as these can degrade the insect-repellent properties and the UV protection coating. For the best longevity, air dry the shirt using the built-in drying loop away from direct high-intensity heat. The shirt fits true to size, but if you plan on wearing a base layer underneath for cooler mornings, you may consider sizing up.
