FAQs

What is the best way to wash the Hawley Half Zip Sweat?

Machine wash cool on a gentle cycle, inside out, with zips fastened. Do not bleach or tumble dry. Dry flat and cool iron if needed.

How does the oversized fit run?

The Hawley is intentionally cut for an oversized fit. For a less voluminous look, consider sizing down. Refer to the product measurements for guidance.

What is the DoubleSoft fabric made of?

The DoubleSoft fabric is composed of 72% Viscose, 23% Polyester, and 5% Elastane, providing a blend of softness, durability, and stretch.

Can I wear this for intense workouts?

While comfortable for light activity and recovery, the oversized fit and fabric composition are best suited for leisure, travel, or active recovery rather than high-intensity training.

What are the key measurements for a size small?

For a size Small: Front Length is 23.4 inches, Chest is 23.6 inches, and Sleeve Length is 17.9 inches.

How do I care for the deep cuffs and hem band?

The care instructions for the entire garment apply to the cuffs and hem band as well. Avoid high heat and harsh washing methods to maintain their elasticity and shape.

Is this sweatshirt suitable for all seasons?

Its versatile layering design makes it suitable for cooler days in spring and autumn, and as a layer for warmth in winter. It might be too warm for very hot summer weather.

Troubleshooting

Fabric feels less soft after washing.

Ensure you are using a cool, gentle cycle and avoiding high heat drying or harsh detergents. Air drying flat can also help maintain softness.

Sweatshirt lost its shape.

Avoid tumble drying and excessive spinning. Ensure the garment is laid flat to dry, especially after washing, to maintain its original shape.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Ensure the zipper was fastened before washing. Try gently moving the zipper up and down. If needed, a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) applied to the teeth can help.

Pilling or fuzz balls appearing on the fabric.

Pilling can occur with frequent friction. Ensure you are washing inside out and avoid washing with abrasive materials. A fabric shaver can be used carefully to remove small pills.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For optimal care and longevity of the DoubleSoft fabric, adhere to the following machine wash instructions:

  1. Turn Inside Out: Always turn the sweatshirt inside out before washing to protect the outer fabric.
  2. Fasten Zips: Ensure all zips are fastened before washing to prevent snagging.
  3. Cool Wash: Machine wash on a cool, gentle cycle.
  4. Avoid Bleach: Do not use bleach or harsh detergents.
  5. No Tumble Dry: Do not tumble dry; air dry to maintain fabric shape and integrity.
  6. Cool Iron: If ironing is needed, use a cool setting.
  7. Dry Clean: Do not dry clean.
  8. Wash with Similar Colors: Launder with garments of similar hues.
  9. Dry Flat: Lay flat to dry to prevent stretching or distortion.
