How do I attach the medal bars to my outfit?
They feature a clip-back attachment, similar to a badge or pin. Simply open the clip, position the bars on your clothing, and secure the clip.
Can I wear these for a formal event?
These are designed for costume or novelty purposes. While they can add flair to a themed costume, they are not appropriate for official ceremonies or formal military attire.
How should I clean the medal bars?

'One Size' indicates that the product is designed to be a universal fit, suitable for most adults and not available in different sizing categories.
Can these be attached to any type of clothing?
They can be attached to most standard fabrics like shirts, jackets, and blazers. Avoid using them on very thick or delicate materials without testing first.
Troubleshooting
Clip is loose or not holding firmly.
Gently bend the clip slightly to increase tension. Ensure the clip is fully engaged with the fabric. If the fabric is too thin, consider reinforcing the area with a small patch of interfacing on the inside.
Colors appear faded after storage.
Store the medal bars away from direct sunlight and in a protective container. If fading is significant, it may indicate prolonged exposure to UV light.
Medal bar is bent or misshapen.
Handle with care during attachment and removal. If slightly bent, attempt to gently unbend it. Significant damage may require replacement as these are decorative items.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The fake military medal bars feature a simple clip-back mechanism. To attach, open the clip, position the bars on the desired clothing item (typically the chest area of a jacket or shirt), and secure the clip firmly. Ensure the garment fabric is not overly delicate to avoid stress on the material.
Compatibility: These bars are designed to attach to most standard clothing fabrics, including shirts, jackets, and blazers. They are suitable for polyester, cotton, and blended fabrics commonly used in costumes and casual wear. They are not intended for use on very thick materials like heavy wool or leather without appropriate modification.
Care: To maintain the appearance of the medal bars, wipe them gently with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals, solvents, or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the material and the printed or applied colors. Store them in a dry place, preferably in a small box or pouch, to prevent scratching or bending, especially after use.
