Troubleshooting

Shirt loses shape after washing

Ensure you are using a gentle cycle with cold water and air drying or tumble drying on a very low heat setting. Avoid harsh spin cycles.

Embroidery appears damaged

Check if the shirt was washed inside out. For minor damage, try gently pressing the embroidery with a warm iron (on low heat, through a cloth) while the shirt is inside out.
