• TECHNICAL FABRIC (Polyamide) | Technical garments can be machine washed to a maximum of 30°C. We recommend a cold wash with a short spin, or drip dry. You can also gently hand wash your item; rinse thoroughly and then drip dry on the washing line.
• COTTON POPLIN | Wash at 30°C using non-bio liquid, and wash the fabric before use as it is likely to shrink. Iron using the appropriate setting for cotton on your iron. Dry naturally or tumble dry on a low setting.

• COTTON SINGLE KNIT JERSEY (T-SHIRTS) | Single jersey knit / brushed fleece can be hand washed or machine washed at 30°C. Hand washing is always the best and safest method for jersey. For machine washing, turn the item inside out and place it in a mesh washing bag. Lay the item flat in its natural shape on a drying rack, hang to dry, or tumble dry on a low setting.

Use cold water and a mild liquid detergent, and add an extra rinse to the wash cycle. To avoid shrinking, don't put wool clothing in the dryer. No tumble drying and no warm water.
• COTTON TWILL | For best care, we recommend a cold gentle machine wash with like colours at 40°C using a quality laundry liquid or powder. Wash inside out to protect the print. Do not soak, wring, rub, bleach or tumble dry. Dry flat or on a hanger. Warm iron on the reverse side.
