To keep your t-shirt looking vibrant and to preserve the printed design for as long as possible, follow these simple care steps:
🧼 Washing Instructions
- Turn Inside Out: Always flip your t-shirt inside out before washing. This protects the print from friction against other clothes or the washing machine drum.
- Cold Water Wash: Machine wash with cold water (30°C / 86°F or below) or hand wash gently. Hot water can soften the ink and lead to fading or cracking.
- Gentle Cycle: Select a gentle or delicate cycle on your machine.
- Mild Detergent: Use a mild liquid detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals, bleach, or optical brighteners, as they break down the print.
- Wash with Like Colors: Wash your t-shirt with similar light fabrics and colors. Avoid washing with heavy items like jeans or zippered jackets.
☀️ Drying & Ironing
- Air Dry in the Shade (Recommended): Line dry or hang your t-shirt to air dry away from direct sunlight to prevent fading and heat damage.
- Tumble Dry Low: If using a dryer, set it to low heat/delicate mode. High heat can shrink cotton fibers and damage the graphic.
- Do Not Iron Directly on the Print: Always iron the t-shirt inside out on a low heat setting. Never place a hot iron directly onto the printed design.
