FAQs

What material is this hoodie made from?

This hoodie is made with a blend of recycled fibers, primarily polyester, as part of PUMA's commitment to sustainability. It contains at least 20% recycled material.

What is 'Bye Dye' technology?

Bye Dye is PUMA's innovative solution aimed at reducing water consumption during the dyeing process. It uses undyed natural fibers or fabrics, significantly saving water compared to traditional dyeing methods.

Is this hoodie suitable for cold weather?

This is an 'Essentials' hoodie, designed for comfort in mild to cool weather. For very cold temperatures, it can be layered with other garments, but it is not intended as heavy-duty winter outerwear.

How do I ensure the PUMA logo lasts?

To protect the rubber print logo, always wash the hoodie inside out in cold water. Avoid ironing directly over the logo, and do not use bleach or harsh chemicals.

What size is this hoodie?

This specific variant is a children's size 7-8 UK. Please refer to PUMA's official sizing chart for detailed measurements if you are unsure about the fit for your child.

Can this hoodie be tumble dried?

Yes, it can be tumble dried, but only on a low heat setting. For best results and to prolong the life of the fabric and print, air drying flat is recommended.

Troubleshooting

Hoodie appears to be shrinking or losing shape after washing.

Ensure you are washing in cold water and tumble drying on a low setting or air drying. High heat can cause synthetic fabrics to shrink or lose elasticity. Avoid harsh detergents.

The PUMA logo print is peeling or cracking.

Always wash the hoodie inside out to protect the print. Avoid ironing directly on the logo and use low heat if ironing. Harsh chemicals or excessive friction during washing can also damage the print.

Fabric feels rough or stiff after washing.

Use a fabric softener suitable for synthetic materials if desired. Ensure thorough rinsing during the wash cycle to remove all detergent residue. Air drying can sometimes lead to a softer feel than tumble drying.

Pilling (small balls of fiber) appearing on the fabric.

Pilling can occur with some synthetic blends due to friction. To minimize this, wash inside out with similar fabrics and avoid abrasive surfaces. A fabric shaver can be used carefully to remove existing pills.
