How to Wash and Dry Your Team Nu Tee
While the catalog does not include specific washing instructions, you can follow these general best practices for cotton t-shirts with printed designs and special edges.
- Washing: Turn the shirt inside out before washing to protect the orange print and the torn edges. Use a gentle cycle with cold water. Mild detergent is best for single cotton.
- Drying: Air drying is the safest option. Lay the shirt flat or hang it to dry, away from direct sunlight to prevent fading. If using a dryer, choose a low heat setting and remove the shirt while it is still slightly damp to avoid shrinkage.
What to Know About the Torn Edges
The deconstructed custom torn edges are a key part of the shirt's style. They are meant to look intentionally unfinished, so you do not need to repair them. To keep them looking intentional, avoid high heat or harsh agitation that could cause excessive fraying. Gentle care will help maintain the intended look without making the edges look worn out.
Stain Removal Tips for Cotton Tees
For common stains like food or dirt, act quickly. Blot (do not rub) the stain with a clean cloth, then pre-treat with a small amount of mild detergent before washing. For tougher stains, a paste of baking soda and water can be applied gently. Always test any stain remover on an inconspicuous area first, especially near the printed design.
