Troubleshooting
Sweatshirt appears to have shrunk after washing
Ensure you are washing at 40 degrees Celsius and avoid excessive heat in the tumble dryer. Line drying is recommended to maintain original size.
Color has faded significantly
Wash with similar colors and consider turning the garment inside out before washing to protect the outer color. Avoid using harsh detergents or bleach.
Pilling has started to appear
While the fabric is designed to be low-pill, occasional pilling can occur. Gentle washing and avoiding abrasive friction can help minimize this. Pilling can often be carefully removed with a fabric shaver.
Seams feel weak or are coming apart
Contact customer support if seams are failing prematurely, as this may indicate a manufacturing defect. For minor wear, a simple stitch repair can often suffice.
