Washing Instructions
First wash caution: Wash this hoodie completely on its own or with matching colors for the first few cycles. Pigment dyes inherently release loose surface molecules initially and will bleed onto lighter garments.
Water temperature: Machine wash cold using a gentle cycle. Cold water minimizes color running and keeps the pure cotton fibers intact.
Inside out: Turn the hoodie inside out before tossing it into the machine. This reduces friction on the fabric's surface and protects any personalized prints.
Detergent: Use a mild, bleach-free detergent. Do not use bleach or fabric softeners, as they chemically strip the distinct dye variations and damage the cotton threads.
Drying Instructions
Tumble dry: Tumble dry on low heat or a low-cycle setting, then remove immediately to reduce deep fabric creases.
Shrinkage: Comfort Colors items are pre-shrunk during the intense manufacturing dye process, meaning they will experience "almost no shrinkage" at home. However, consistent exposure to high dryer heat will eventually shrink the natural cotton fibers.
Air dry: For maximum color vibrancy, hang-dry or lay flat in a shaded area away from direct sunlight.
