Product Information

Full details

This Fruit Of The Loom Childrens Raglan Sleeve Sweatshirt in Grey, size 7-8, is designed for comfort and durability for active children. Its key benefit is the soft feel provided by Belcoro® yarn and the shape retention of the cotton/Lycra® ribbing, making it ideal for everyday wear and printing.

Troubleshooting

Shrinking after washing

Ensure you are following the recommended washing temperature (warm, around 40°C) and avoid excessive heat during tumble drying. Do not iron decoration.

Loss of shape at cuffs or hem

The cotton/Lycra® ribbing is designed for shape retention. If significant stretching occurs, ensure proper washing and drying methods are used, and avoid over-stretching the garment manually.

Pilling on the fabric surface

Pilling can occur with normal wear. Wash the garment inside out to minimize friction. Avoid washing with abrasive items like denim or items with Velcro.

Print quality is poor after washing

If you have customized the garment, ensure the decoration was applied according to the print method's instructions. For care, avoid ironing directly on the printed area.
