Your MKI hoodie or crewneck is made from cotton, designed to be a wardrobe staple. Cotton holds up well to regular wear, but heat and harsh washing can fade colour and pull it out of shape over time. These six steps will help your piece keep its colour, shape and print looking sharp, wash after wash.
-
Wash gently and cool
Machine wash at 30 degrees on a gentle cycle to keep the cotton looking its best.
-
Separate dark colours
Wash dark colourways separately to avoid dye transfer.
-
Avoid bleach and the tumble dryer
Both can damage the fabric and affect the garment's shape over time.
-
Never iron directly on a print
Iron around any printed design, or turn the garment inside out.
-
Iron on a medium setting
Where ironing is needed elsewhere on the garment, a medium heat is safe to use.
-
Skip the dry cleaner
A gentle machine wash is all this piece needs.
