How do I wash the Regatta Animal Fleece?

Troubleshooting
Fleece feels stiff after washing
Ensure you are using a mild detergent and not overloading the washing machine. Try air drying instead of tumble drying on high heat.
Pilling on the fleece surface
This can occur with regular wear and washing. Gentle washing cycles and air drying can help minimize pilling. You can use a fabric shaver to carefully remove pills.
Character ears or badge peeling
Avoid high heat when washing and drying. Do not iron directly on the design. If peeling starts, cease high-heat drying immediately.
Item appears to have shrunk
Check the care label to ensure you followed the correct washing and drying temperatures. Avoid tumble drying on high heat in the future.
