As obvious as it sounds, the best way to keep your garments looking 10/10 is to read the care instructions. Here’s a quick guide to the symbols: UNDERSTAND THE SYMBOLS • Wash tub: shows what temperature to wash your clothes at. If there are lines underneath, it needs to be on a delicate wash. • Triangle: this is the bleach symbol – if it has a cross through it, do not bleach. • Square box with inner circle: the symbol for tumble drying – if it has a cross through it, avoid the dryer and leave to air dry. • Iron: this shows what temperature you can iron your clothes at. One dot means cool and two dots mean hot – same applies, if there is a cross through it, don’t bother. • Circle: dry clean symbol – shows whether you can dry clean or not. Wash your clothes straight away. As tempting as it is after a hard session, try not to leave your kit in your gym bag. It allows bacteria to thrive and can make it harder to get your clothes smelling fresh. Don’t use too much detergent. Using more won’t make your clothes cleaner – in fact it’ll lead to residue on your kit, causing smells to get trapped in the fabric. Non-bio detergent works best. Biological detergents can leave a residue on fabrics, having a negative impact on the fabric performance. Avoid heat.Apparel with stretch properties does not like to be exposed to heat as it can make odour smells even more pronounced. Try air drying instead – it can reduce static, extend product lifespan, reduce colour fading and keeps the stretch. GYM KIT CARE 1. 2. 3. 4. BACK TO MENU
