Wash Guide & CareUpdated 4 months ago

All of our products come with a care label, where you'll find washing instructions specific to that product.

Following these will ensure the longevity of your clothes, and although it's great to buy a new outfit, we're keen to encourage as much wear as possible before throwing out your used clothes.  When the time does come, we'd love for you to pass them on to a friend, donate them, drop them off at a fabric recycling centre, or why not turn them into a comfy cushion cover for your van?

Here's a few tips for keeping your clothing going for longer:

  • Wash on a low heat. Try to use natural detergents (these are less harsh on your skin and the environment) and avoid ones which have sodium laurel sulphate and optical brighteners. These are often derived from petrochemicals and are then released into the water systems.

  • 'Spot-clean' individual stains on things like robes and jackets, with a damp cloth.

  • Line-dry to reduce environmental impact and also save energy. Avoiding the tumble-drier will also increase the longevity of your clothes. Dry out of direct sunlight, and why not opt for wooden pegs rather than plastic ones?

  • Our tees/sweats/hoods prints are all made with a chemical-free, water based print. This will naturally wear-in over time and washes, so we recommend washing inside out.
  • Wash by colour. Some of our products have been 'garment dyed', which means they have been constructed and then dyed, giving them a nice worn in fade around the seams. This does mean they sometimes shed some colour in the initial washes, so make sure you wash them with other similar colours to avoid any discoloration.
