Apparel Care Instructions

To keep your t-shirt, hoodies and sweatshirts looking fresh and vibrant for as long as possible, please follow these care instructions:

1. Wash Separately for the First Few Washes:

  • Some colors may bleed during initial washes. To prevent color transfer onto other garments, we recommend washing your apparel separately for the first 2-3 washes.

2. Turn Inside Out Before Washing:

  • Always turn your t-shirt inside out before washing. This helps to protect the fabric and prints from friction and fading.

3. Use Cold Water:

  • Wash your apparel in cold water (30 degrees Celcius or below). Hot water can cause shrinkage and fading over time.

4. Gentle Cycle:

  • Opt for a gentle or delicate cycle to minimize wear and tear on the fabric.

5. Use Mild Detergents:

  • Avoid harsh detergents, bleach, or fabric softeners. Mild, color-safe detergents will protect the fabric and prints.

6. Avoid Overloading the Machine:

  • Give your apparel enough room to move freely in the washing machine. Overloading can lead to stretching or damage to the fabric.

7. Air Dry for Best Results:

  • Lay your apparel flat to air dry or hang it in a shaded area. Avoid direct sunlight to prevent color fading.
  • If using a dryer, select a low heat setting to prevent shrinkage or damage.

8. Ironing:

  • Turn your apparel inside out and use a low heat setting when ironing. Avoid ironing directly on prints or embellishments.

 

By following these care tips, your Chaqraa apparel will stay soft, vibrant, and in great shape wash after wash!
