Troubleshooting

Shirt loses shape after washing

Ensure you are using a cold wash cycle and air drying or tumble drying on low heat. Avoid overcrowding the washing machine.

Color fades significantly

Wash the shirt with similar colors and use a mild detergent. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when drying.

Collar appears wrinkled or misshapen

Gently reshape the collar after washing and allow it to air dry. If ironing, use a medium heat setting and avoid pressing too hard on the ribbed area.

Embroidered logo shows wear

Avoid ironing directly over the logo. If ironing is necessary, turn the shirt inside out or use a pressing cloth over the logo.
