Troubleshooting

Shrinking after washing

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

Pilling or fuzziness on fabric

Wash inside out to protect the outer surface. Use a fabric shaver gently if pilling occurs.

Loss of colour vibrancy

Wash with like colours and use a detergent free of harsh bleaches. Avoid direct sunlight when drying.

Stretched out fit

Avoid over-stretching the garment during wear. Ensure proper storage by folding rather than hanging to prevent stretching.
