Recommended washing
Wash with cold water or low temperature, separate colors and avoid aggressive cycles when the garment is not very dirty. For custom garments, turning the garment inside out before washing can help protect the application.
Avoid using fabric softeners on technical or quick-drying garments, as they can affect the breathability and feel of the fabric.
Drying and storage
Whenever possible, air dry and avoid extreme heat. Excess temperature can affect fibers, shape or applications.
Store clothes completely dry. When traveling, rolling up t-shirts, buffs and lightweight clothing helps save space and reduce marks.
