Washing & Care Instructions

Washing & Care Instructions

Let’s be real about something.

You know it, we know it. Unless you're a hardcore Martha Stewart fan, this shirt is going to get tossed in the wash with everything else. Probably on warm. Maybe hot. Then it’s going straight into the dryer like the rest of your clothes.

That’s fine. This ain't a delicate shirt.

High-quality DTF prints are built for real life. They’re flexible, durable, and designed to survive normal washing and drying without cracking, peeling, or falling apart. In most cases, the print will still be holding strong long after the shirt itself has lived a full and honorable life.

You don’t need to baby it. You just need to not actively abuse it.

 

WASHING IT (REALISTIC VERSION)

If you want maximum lifespan, here’s what helps:

▸ Cold or warm water.
▸ Normal cycle.

If you don’t do that:

▸ It’ll still be fine
▸ You’re not “ruining” the shirt
▸ You’re just skipping the optimization step

 

DRYING IT (ALSO REALISTIC)

Best case:

▸ Low heat or hang dry.

What’s probably going to happen:

▸ Regular dryer, regular heat.

That’s okay. Just know that high heat over and over is what shortens the life of any printed shirt, screen print included.

 

THINGS THAT ACTUALLY MATTER

If you remember nothing else, remember this:

▸ Don’t bleach it.
▸ Don’t iron directly on the print.

Those things do the most damage, the fastest. Oh, and they also void your warranty, too. No exceptions. Don't do that. Beyond this, if you REALLY want your shirt to last...

▸ Wash it inside out.

 

THE BOTTOM LINE

▸ This shirt is made to be worn, washed, and lived in.
▸ Treat it reasonably and it’ll last a long time.
▸ Treat it like every other shirt you own and it’ll still hold up just fine.
▸ This isn’t museum clothing.
▸ It’s built for rough seas.
