Care Guide
CARING FOR YOUR ORGANIC COTTON
We want your Ivy t-shirts to become part of your long-lasting, sustainable wardrobe so hope this guide helps you to understand how best to care for them.
Wash Gently:
Using a mild and gentle detergent, wash your t's inside out on a gentle, 30 degree cycle and with similar colours.
Avoid using softeners as they can damage the fabric - our organic cotton is soft enough.
If you have so many Breton's that you can fill a whole load, why not do a Breton wash to keep them all together?
Rack or Line Dry:
Take your clothes out of the washing machine as soon as possible once the cycle has finished and gently re-shape whilst damp.
Line or rack dry your t's or dry them in an airing cupboard - never tumble dry them because it can damage the fabrics fibres and age your t's, as well as using a huge amount of energy.
Ironing:
If you dry your t's as guided above, minimal ironing should be required. However when you do iron them, use a warm temperature and iron on the reverse.
Storage:
Store your t's in a cool, dry place - ideally folded in a drawer. If you do hang them, be sure to use only wooden or velvet hangers (just be aware that hanging can cause misshapen shoulders).
