Troubleshooting

Shrinking after washing

Ensure the garment is washed according to the care instructions (40°C maximum) and avoid excessive heat during tumble drying. Consider air drying for best results.

Pilling or bobbling on fabric surface

Pilling can occur with friction. Wash inside out and avoid washing with abrasive materials like denim or items with Velcro. Gentle washing and air drying can help minimize this.

Color fading

Wash with similar colors and use a mild detergent. Avoid direct sunlight when drying, as prolonged exposure can fade colors. Washing inside out can also protect the outer surface.
