Troubleshooting
Hoodie appears to have shrunk after washing.
Ensure you are washing in cold water and tumble drying on a low heat setting. High heat is the primary cause of shrinking in many fabrics. Air drying can also help prevent shrinkage.
Zipper is stiff or catches.
Check if any fabric is caught in the zipper teeth. If not, you can try rubbing a graphite pencil or a small amount of bar soap along the teeth to lubricate it. Avoid forcing the zipper.
Fabric feels rough or less soft after washing.
This can sometimes occur from harsh detergents or hard water. Ensure you're using a mild detergent. Consider adding a fabric softener approved for the garment type, or a cup of white vinegar to the rinse cycle (it helps soften without residue).
Pilling (small fabric balls) appears on the surface.
Pilling can occur with friction. You can gently remove pills using a fabric shaver or a lint roller designed for pilling. To minimize future pilling, wash the hoodie inside out and avoid excessive agitation.

Care Instructions

- Machine Wash Cold: To prevent shrinking, fading, and damage to the fabric, wash the hoodie in cold water.
- Tumble Dry Low: Use a low heat setting when tumble drying to avoid excessive shrinkage and fabric degradation. Alternatively, air drying on a flat surface or hanging can further extend its life.
