Troubleshooting
Shirt appears to have shrunk after washing
Ensure you are following the care instructions precisely, particularly regarding water temperature and drying method. Avoid high heat in the washing machine and dryer. If shrinkage is significant, consider air drying.
Color fading or bleeding
Wash the shirt in cold water with similar colors. Avoid using bleach. Check the care label for specific dye instructions. If bleeding occurs, re-wash with a color catcher.
Collar losing its shape
Ensure proper washing and drying techniques. Reshape the collar while the garment is damp. Avoid excessive heat during drying.
Embroidery (Pony logo) looks damaged
Avoid direct ironing on the embroidered area. If ironing is necessary, turn the garment inside out or place a protective cloth over the embroidery. Gentle hand washing can help preserve the stitching.
