Troubleshooting
Shirt feels stiff after washing
Ensure you used a mild detergent and cold water. Avoid fabric softeners which can affect the material. Hang dry instead of tumble drying.
Embroidered badge appears faded
This can occur with frequent washing. Ensure you are washing inside out on a gentle cycle and avoid harsh detergents or bleach.
Heat-sealed lettering peeling off
Avoid tumble drying and ironing directly on the lettering. If peeling occurs, try ironing on a very low heat setting from the inside of the shirt, placing a cloth over the lettering.
