Garment Care

Caring for your customised clothes properly is ESSENTIAL for keeping them in tip-top condition, from the shape to the print, the quality is in the care. There are infinite ways we can damage our prints without even realising, whether it’s washing them – ironing them or something as simple as storing them in the wrong way.

Disclaimer, we have done in house testing with popular washing agents found in South Africa and base our results as such. We cannot take accountability for garment care gone wrong.

Basic rule is that 100% cotton textiles should be washed with large amount of water in 40 degrees. Cotton almost always shrinks 3% – 5% in the first wash so washing in higher temperatures might shrink the shirt even more.

If the textile is cotton blend (for example 80% cotton, 20% polyester), recommended washing temperature might vary. We recommend to wash the shirt before its first use. Wash inside out, thereby printing of the product remains in prime condition for a long time.
Our Geared Jackets should be washed alone and no stay soft / fabric softener  added.
