Care Instructions

We’re thrilled to share some essential tips on how to care for your custom clothes so that they’ll remain as vibrant and cosy as the day you got them. So, grab a cup of tea, and let’s dive into the world of custom clothing maintenance.

But first, a quick summary before we dive into the finer deets below:

The Highlights

  • First date? Hand wash in cold water.
  • When washing, turn it inside-out and keep things cool (under 30°C – it’s not a sauna).
  • Tumble drying? A big no-no! The prints hate the spin.
  • Iron if you must, but steer clear of any design – they can’t handle the heat!

Separation Anxiety?

Before you even think about doing the laundry, separate your printed clothese from your jeans, zippers, and other abrasive clothing items. These items can be sensitive, and friction can lead to unwanted wear and tear.

The Art of Gentle Machine Washing

When it’s laundry day, opt for a gentle cycle on your washing machine. Turn your clothes inside out to protect the print, and use cold water. Hot water can cause fading and might not be kind to your vibrant prints.

The Detergent Dilemma

For custom print clothing, it’s best to stick with a mild, liquid detergent. Avoid using bleach or fabric softeners, as they can harm the print and the fabric. Trust us; your clothes prefer a more gentle approach.

Easy on the Agitation

Minimise agitation by washing your clothese with similar items. An overload can lead to excessive friction and pilling, which nobody wants.

To Dry or Not to Dry

Now, drying is where the real heroes shine. Hang your clothes to air dry. Avoid direct sunlight, as it can bleach the colors. If you’re in a rush, use low heat in the dryer, and remove your clothes as soon as they’re dry.

The Iron Situation

Only iron your clothes if you must, but do it inside out and with a clean cloth on top of the print. Keep the iron on low heat to prevent damage.

Conclusion

Caring for your custom print clothing is all about showing them the TLC they deserve. By following these simple steps, you can keep your clothes looking fresh, vibrant, and fabulous.
