First Wash:
"Wash separately or with similar colors before first wear. This sets the fabric and ensures optimal performance."

Regular Washing:

• Turn inside out to protect prints
• Machine wash cold (30°C max)
• Use mild, non-biological detergent
• Gentle or delicate cycle
• No fabric softener (affects moisture-wicking)

Drying:

• Shake out immediately after washing
• Hang dry on wide hangers
• If machine drying: low heat, remove while slightly damp
• Never wring out

Ironing & Storage:

• Iron on low heat, inside out
• Use steam for stubborn wrinkles
• Hang in closet with space between garments
• Cedar balls recommended for freshness

Pro Tip from Bobby:
"That post-round polo doesn't always need a full wash. Air it out overnight and spot-clean if needed. I get 3-4 rounds from mine before washing."

Structured Caps:

• Hand wash or spot clean only
• Use cap washer frame for machine (top rack dishwasher works!)
• Cold water, minimal detergent
• Air dry on cap form or coffee can

Performance/Moisture-Wicking Caps:

• Machine wash cold, gentle cycle
• Place in garment bag
• Air dry only - heat destroys the sweatband
• Reshape while damp

Removing Sweat Stains:

• Mix: 4 tbsp baking soda + 1/4 cup water
• Apply paste, gentle scrub with soft brush
• Let sit 1 hour, rinse cold
• Repeat if necessary

Storage:

• Store on cap rack or shelf
• Never stack heavy items on top
• Use cap storage box for travel

Washing Frequency:
"Only when visibly soiled or after 10-15 wears. Over-washing breaks down water-resistant coatings."

Washing Instructions:

• Check pockets, zip all zippers
• Machine wash cold, gentle cycle
• Technical wash preferred
• Extra rinse cycle to remove all detergent

Drying:

• Tumble dry low for 10 minutes to reactivate DWR coating
• Hang dry completely

Maintaining Water Resistance:

• Reapply DWR spray every 20 washes
• Test by sprinkling water - should bead up
• Iron on low heat can reactivate coating

Everyday Care:

• Avoid washing with heavy items (jeans, towels)
• Remove promptly to prevent wrinkles

Stain Treatment:

• Grass stains: White vinegar + water (1:1)

Longevity Tips:

• Rotate between 2-3 gloves
