Garment Wash Guide

Our heavy 260 GSM French Tech Terry garments are premium, engineered pieces. To maximize longevity, prevent fabric fading, and protect high-definition typography stacks from cracking over 50+ washes, adhere strictly to these operational rules:

01 // The Cold Wash Rule

• Execution: Machine wash cold (30°C) with similar colors. Always turn the garment inside-out and use a gentle cycle with a mild detergent.
• Crucial Restriction: Avoid using fabric softeners. Softeners leave a chemical coating that degrades high-density print bonding and compromises the raw texture of the French Terry weave.
• Why: Turning inside-out shields the face-printed metadata and typography from surface friction during agitation cycles.

02 // The Drying & Shade Rule

• Execution: Hang-dry the garment in the shade for the longest lifespan, or tumble dry on an ultra-low heat setting.
• Crucial Restriction: Do not wring or twist the apparel. Forcible wringing permanently distorts the heavy boxy drape and cracks printed films. Do not dry clean.

03 // The Anti-Direct Iron Rule

• Execution: Avoid ironing directly over any printed design elements or technical graphics.
• Protocol: Turn the garment inside-out and apply a cool iron only if necessary. Never let a hot iron surface make contact with the print layer.

04 // The Zero Dry Clean Rule

• Execution: Do not dry clean this apparel.
• Why: Industrial dry-cleaning solvents degrade specialized bonding agents holding heavy-duty graphics onto the looped French Terry structure.

05 // The Bleaching Restraint

• Execution: Employ non-chlorine bleach solely when critically essential. Standard chlorine bleach permanently alters deep fabric dye and degrades high-contrast graphic details.

06 // Storage Architecture

• Protocol: Store folded on flat shelving or hang on broad, structured hangers in a cool, dry place. Storing heavy 260 GSM knitwear on wire hangers can cause collar and shoulder distortion over time.
