FAQs
Is this sweatshirt suitable for summer?
It is made of breathable cotton, which is great for cooler summer evenings, but it may be too warm for peak midday heat.
What is the primary material used?
The sweatshirt is crafted from high-quality soft-touch cotton.
How should I wash this sweatshirt?
It is machine washable; we recommend washing it inside out with similar colors.
Can the zipper be used easily by a young child?
Yes, the quarter-zip is designed to be user-friendly, allowing children to pull it up or down independently.
Does the sizing run true to age?
The garment is sized for children, but we recommend consulting the specific size guide to ensure a perfect fit for your child.
Does the fabric lose its shape easily?
The ribbed cuffs and hem are specifically included to help the garment maintain its structure and shape even after repeated play.
Troubleshooting
Zipper feels slightly stiff after washing
Ensure the zipper track is free of lint or fabric and try running the zip up and down carefully a few times.
Garment appears slightly wrinkled
Give the sweatshirt a light shake after the wash cycle and hang it on a shaped hanger to air dry to minimize wrinkles.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because this is a pullover garment, no setup is required. The sweatshirt is compatible with most casual trousers, jeans, or joggers, making it highly versatile. To keep the garment in the best condition, turn it inside out before washing in a standard machine cycle with similar colors. Avoid using harsh bleach and air-dry whenever possible to preserve the integrity of the cotton fibers and the vibrancy of the striped pattern. Always check the internal tag for specific temperature guidelines to ensure the fabric remains soft over time.
