Troubleshooting

Shrinking after washing

Ensure you are washing in cold water and tumble drying on a low setting. Avoid high heat, which can cause shrinkage in cotton blends.

Print fading or peeling

Wash the garment inside out and avoid ironing directly on the printed area. Use mild detergents and avoid harsh chemicals.

Loss of shape

Follow the care instructions carefully, especially regarding washing and drying temperatures. The cotton/Lycra® ribbing is designed to help maintain shape, but excessive heat can compromise this.

Static cling

Using a dryer sheet during tumble drying can help reduce static cling. Ensure the garment is fully dry but not over-dried.
