Comfort comes at a price
Most of the garment’s fabric (70%) is cotton, therefore the fabric is quite delicate and requires more attention in care.
The fabric also contains 30% polyester. It adds durability, smoothness and softness, and makes care easier. Thanks to polyester, our product retains its shape better and dries faster, because cotton fibre is not elastic, so polyester helps make it significantly more stretchy. Without polyester, the fabric would be stiff, highly wrinkly, and would look unappealing after washing.
In summary, this fabric composition gives this garment clearly more advantages than if it were made of 100% cotton.
CARE FOR OUR PRODUCT’S FABRIC (RULES)
WASHING
Hand wash in 30°C water using a non-bleaching detergent. During washing, the product should be washed separately from other garments (especially if you chose a bright colour). It is very important not to wring the garment by hand after washing — only remove excess water very carefully by gently pressing it out by hand.
If you nevertheless decide to machine wash the garment, set the gentlest cycle suitable for delicate fabrics, wash at a temperature not higher than 30°C, and set the spin speed to a maximum of 800 rpm. Spinning is not recommended, but it is allowed. Tumble drying is prohibited.
Whichever washing method you choose, make sure to wash the garment inside out so that excess fluff washes off from the reverse side. Don’t worry — this is completely normal! After 2–3 washes, the excess fluff will be gone. If, after washing, some fluff remains on the “right” side of the garment, we recommend using a lint roller.
GREASE STAINS
You will not remove grease stains with regular washing. To remove a grease stain from our product, before washing rub it generously with plain laundry soap. After that, rinse gently (do not wring hard under any circumstances) and wash as indicated in our product’s washing rules.
IRONING
Due to its composition, the fabric is not prone to wrinkling, but if you want to look perfect, we recommend ironing the product only with a steam iron.
Fabric manufacturer’s note
“It’s no secret — some customers are not happy that, until the first washes, the fabric fluff slightly sticks to underwear. To avoid this, we tested many different production processes. First, we tried removing more fluff from the inside, but then the fabric lost its thickness and firmness. We also tried using more polyester on the inner side of the garment fabric. With this production method, the issue is solved, but the fabric loses its good qualities! So we decided not to change the fabric composition, preserving what has become its strength — naturalness, softness and comfort. If the fabric is fluffy on the inside, it does not mean it is poor quality. It means it is natural and made for those who value one hundred percent comfort.
If you follow all of our recommendations, you will be able to enjoy the product’s great appearance and durability for a long time!”
