• ​Uniforms should be washed in cold water.

• The uniforms must be washed on a short gentle or delicate cycle only.

​

***DO NOT USE FABRIC SOFTENERS, as they interfere with the performance wear characteristics and basically coat the fabric and block the fabric’s finish interfering with the anti-stain, wicking and breathability of the garment.***

​

• Check the ingredients of your laundry detergent before washing. You should avoid detergents that have a chlorine base. The chlorine will eventually create a gray tint in the fabric of the garment and can cause color migration even in colorfast material.

​

***DO NOT USE BLEACH, the bleach will counter act with the stain finishes that are in your uniforms.

Using color catchers like Carbona Dye Magnet, or like products, that are designed to pick up excess dye are suggested as well. Keep in mind these recommended procedures must be done with the first washing.

​

• Stains on your uniforms should be treated immediately with products such as Shout, Zout or Oxiclean. Check the garment after washing to make sure the stain was removed.

• If the uniforms have extended shoulder wings, (which they do) fold them back before washing. It will be necessary to have them folded back when transporting the uniforms in garment bags to prevent abrasion caused by the edge of the fabric rubbing against the bag.

• Turn uniform inside out.

• Zippers should be zipped and snaps snapped.

• Remove uniform immediately from washer when its finished.The uniforms must be removed from the machines immediately upon the cycle being completed. Do not leave the uniforms wet in the machines for an extended period.

• Line dry/air drying is the best for the uniforms! We recommend air drying, but if a dryer is to be used, use a very short cycle on cool. Shake the uniform and hang to dry on the wishbone hangers supplied with the order for best results. Heat in the dryer will break down the weave of the fabric and will also void the warranty!

​

***NEVER USE A HOT IRON to press this uniform. Typically a light steaming will be sufficient. A professional cleaning establishment should steam press lightly using the appropriate technology if needed.

***Don't forget to wash your shoes every now and then too!***
