FAQs

What material is this sweatshirt made of?

The sweatshirt is made from a blend of 55% cotton, 36% recycled polyester, and 9% viscose. It contains at least 70% recycled and renewable materials.

Is this sweatshirt suitable for athletic performance?

While comfortable and offering freedom of movement, its primary design is for casual wear and lounging. For intense athletic performance, specialized sportswear is recommended.

How does the drop shoulder design affect the fit?

The drop shoulder design creates a more relaxed, modern silhouette and ensures greater ease of movement around the shoulders and arms.

What does 'slightly short back length' mean?

It indicates that the back hem of the sweatshirt is designed to be a bit shorter than a standard sweatshirt, often intended to be paired with higher-waisted trousers or to create a specific stylistic look.

Can I dry clean this sweatshirt?

No, dry cleaning is not recommended for this sweatshirt. Please follow the machine wash and tumble dry/hang dry instructions for best care.

What are the benefits of the recycled materials used?

Using recycled materials helps reduce waste and decreases reliance on virgin resources, contributing to a more sustainable production process.

How should I care for the 3-Stripes detail?

To preserve the details, wash the sweatshirt inside out in cold water and avoid ironing directly on the stripes or logo.

Troubleshooting

Shrinking after washing

Ensure you are washing in cold water and tumble drying on low heat or air drying. Avoid high heat settings.

Loss of softness

Use a mild detergent and avoid fabric softeners, which can degrade the fibers over time. Consider washing with a small amount of white vinegar to restore softness.

Pilling on fabric surface

This can occur with friction. Avoid washing with abrasive materials. A fabric shaver can be used to carefully remove pills.

Fading of color

Wash inside out in cold water and avoid direct sunlight when drying.
