Garment-dyed Products
ALWAYS WASH SEPARATELY BEFORE WEARING
TO AVOID BLEEDING ISSUES
Due to the nature of the dyeing process employed with garment-dyed products pigment dyed shades, loose pigments may remain on the surface of the garments even after the first wash. We therefore strongly recommend washing these garments only with like-colored garments, as some of the pigment dyes may stain light-or white-colored garments in the wash cycle. Washing the garments in cold water will reduce the possibility of staining. Pigment dye colors provide a vintage look that will remain for the life of the garment.
Care Instructions for Garment-Dyed Sweatshirt
Wash Before First Use - Garment-dyed items may have residual dye. Wash separately before wearing to avoid color transfer.
Turn Inside Out - Turn the sweatshirt inside out to reduce friction and protect the outer surface and embroidery/print (if applicable).
Machine Wash Cold - Use cold water on a gentle cycle to preserve the color and prevent shrinking. Avoid hot water, which may cause the garment to fade or shrink.
Use Mild Detergent - Use a gentle, color-safe detergent. Avoid bleach or harsh chemicals that can strip the dye and damage the fabric.
Wash with Similar Colors - Garment-dyed fabrics may bleed slightly during the first few washes, so wash with similar colors.
Avoid Overloading the Machine - Ensure enough room for the garment to move freely in the washer, which helps with proper cleaning and reduces wrinkles.
Air Dry for Best Results - Lay the sweatshirt flat to dry or hang it on a drying rack. Avoid direct sunlight, which can fade the dye over time. Air drying helps maintain the garment's shape and softness.
Tumble Dry Low (Optional) - If you choose to tumble dry, use a low heat setting to minimize shrinkage. Remove promptly to prevent wrinkles.
Avoid Ironing Directly on the Surface - If ironing is necessary, turn the sweatshirt inside out and use a low heat setting. Do not iron directly on printed designs or logos.
