Care Instructions
Our apparel is made from premium-quality materials by Tapstitch. Follow these care instructions to keep your garments looking fresh and lasting longer:
Washing
- Machine wash cold (maximum 30°C / 86°F)
- Wash inside out to best preserve the print and color
- Wash dark colors separately the first few times to prevent dye transfer
- Use mild detergent — avoid bleach, fabric softener, and harsh chemicals
- Wash with similar colors to prevent color bleeding
Drying
- Tumble dry on low heat or air dry for best results
- Hang dry or lay flat to minimize shrinkage — this is the gentlest option
- Remove promptly from the dryer to avoid wrinkles
- Avoid high heat as it can damage the print and fabric
Avoid
- ❌ Dry cleaning
- ❌ Bleach or chlorine
- ❌ Ironing directly on the print (iron on reverse side only if needed)
- ❌ High heat dryers
- ❌ Fabric softeners
About Shrinkage
Our apparel contains cotton, which means some shrinkage is normal. Most items contain 2-5% cotton, which may shrink 3-5%. To minimize shrinkage:
- Wash in cold water
- Air dry or lay flat to dry
- Avoid high heat in the dryer
Print Care
Our prints use advanced DTG (Direct-to-Garment) and DTF (Direct-to-Film) printing technology for durability:
- Washing inside out protects the print from fading
- Avoid direct heat on the print area when ironing
- The print will soften slightly with each wash, but this is normal and doesn't affect durability
Storage
Store your garments in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Fold rather than hang to prevent stretching.
