PRODUCT CARE GUIDE

PLEASE DO!

  • Always wash vintage clothing inside out.
  • Always wash with cold water.
  • Dry your clothing inside out to avoid sun fading.

 

DO NOT!

  • Never soak coloured items longer than two hours, only White.
  • Never set your spin speed to Max.
  • Avoid washing shirts with items that contain zips and buttons. This can cause pinholes during spin cycle.

 

IRONING
