Bear in mind: This Fabric is Most vulnerable to stress when it is WET. The weave is more lubricated at that point, so don't scrub(not needed) and do not wring to dry if hand washing. Only wash with the same type delicate fabrics-(When wet, cotton can weigh many multiples heavier than our micro-fiber garments and will act as a "battering ram" if washed in the same cycle.) Also Front loading washers can be a bit harder on delicates because of the tumbling process.

OUR ORIGINAL PRINT FABRIC IS A MICRO-FIBER FABRIC. THE COLORS ARE LOCKED INTO THE FIBER AND ARE PERMANENT.-- NO MATTER HOW MANY TIMES THE GARMENT IS CLEANED, THIS PRINT WILL NEVER CHANGE ITS COLORS. IT IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO STAIN. -IT IS A WASH AND WEAR ITEM: WASH ON -GENTLE -WITH ANY SOAP. -

AFTER THE SPIN CYCLE HANG TO DRY. THERE IS A LESS MOISTURE LEFT THAN COTTON OF SIMILAR WEIGHT SO HANG DRYING ONLY! THIS FABRIC IS WRINKLE RESISTANT AND HANGS OUT STRAIGHT. USING A DRYER WILL EVENTUALLY DAMAGE THE SHIRT OVER THE LIFE OF THE GARMENT, SEAMS, PADS, BUTTONS AND ZIPPERS WILL EVENTUALLY BREAK DOWN.

IF YOU ARE TRAVELING AND WANT TO WASH IT, JUST WASH IT IN THE SINK; BLOT WITH A COUPLE OF TOWELS AND HANG DRY. - WHEN PACKING, PUT IT ON TOP AND IT WILL NOT GET WRINKLING.-IF YOU PACK THE GARMENT AWAY DAMP OR PUT IT AT THE BOTTOM, IT MAY WRINKLE SLIGHTLY.--USUALLY HANGING IN A STEAMY SHOWER WILL SOLVE THIS PROBLEM OR YOU CAN SIMPLY RE-WET THE GARMENT, HANG IT UP OR BLOW DRY IT IF YOU ARE IN A HURRY.-ALSO, PORTABLE STEAMERS WORK VERY WELL TO QUICKLY REMOVE WRINKLES. DRYCLEANING IS OK; BUT IT IS A WASTE OF MONEY.

Lazy men Only: DON'T Pull the shirt off and on over your head. If you are damp when you do this it will most likely hang up behind on your back (upper shoulders); you will then yank on it to overcome this; of course, If/when you pull a seam apart by doing that, you will then assume that I made a faulty shirt. :-))

Tuckers: When you tuck your shirt in, tighten your belt, then lean forward if shirt is tucked in too severely you WILLstress the back of this shirt more over its lifetime. We know you like to show your wonderful physique but these are not a style that's designed to be tucked in....just sayin'.
