Generic Care Instructions
Caring for Your Clothes
We recommend following these general rules to maintain any clothes you want to keep for a long time!
Only wash if it smells, has sweat stains, or you spill something on it.
- Avoid sweat stains by wearing undershirts you don’t care about
- Avoid smells by wearing only during low energy activities and avoiding use in an active kitchen
Wash on a delicate cycle in cool water with like colours and materials.
- Washing delicate fabrics with rugged fabrics can damage the more delicate fabrics
Use fabric softener.
- It acts like a moisturizer, reducing friction during the wash and wrinkles post wash
DO NOT bleach and avoid heavy detergents where possible.
- Bleach only works for solid whites but can also cause them to yellow
Hang dry everything except knitwear. Knitwear will stretch and sag if hung so flat lay instead. It’s better for your clothes, the environment, and your wallet!
We recommend avoiding drying machines but if you decide to tumble dry, do so with low heat only and use dryer balls.- Dryer balls are basically the fabric softener equivalent for the drying cycle
- If you don't have dryer balls you can use dryer sheets instead
Dry immediately after washing to prevent wrinkles and bad smells.
