Care Guide for Sweatshirts
Washing
40 degrees or less
Wash inside out
Do not bleach
We recommend washing your garment on a gentle action 40 degree cycle(synthetics) with non-biological or colour care detergent. For lower environmental impact, Woodbank sweats can also be washed at 30 degrees. To minimise pilling, wash inside out and with garments of similar fabric and weight.
Drying
Cool tumble dry only
Tumble dry inside out
Do not tumble with abrasive or heavy fabrics
If tumble dried, use a cool tumble dry setting and ensure the garment is turned inside out. When tumble drying, do not mix with heavier weight or abrasive garments, as this will increase the risk of pilling. To avoid creasing, remove garments from the machine as soon as possible.
Ironing
• Cool iron only
If you iron your garment, use a cool iron setting. Ironing on a high setting will scorch fibres.
Pilling
Wash and tumble dry inside out
Avoid excessive abrasion of your garment
If the fibres in your garment become entangled, they may form visible pills on the surface of the fabric. You can minimise the effects of pilling by avoiding friction and abrasion, rubbing (from bag straps or spot-cleaning) and snagging (from Velcro® or sharp edges). Remove pills with a de-fuzzing razor, a de-pilling comb or gently by hand.
