FAQs
What material is the Pinko Striped-sleeve Zip-up Sweatshirt made of?
The main fabric is a technical-effect pique made of Viscose (70%) and Nylon (30%). The sleeves feature contrasting stripes.
How should I wash this sweatshirt?
It is best to check the care label. Typically, garments like this require hand washing in cold water with a mild detergent or professional dry cleaning to preserve the fabric and details.
Is this sweatshirt suitable for cold weather?
It is ideal for transitional weather. While it provides some warmth, it's best suited as a layering piece for colder temperatures, worn over or under other garments.
What does 'technical-effect pique' mean?
This refers to a type of knitted fabric with a textured surface, offering durability and a distinct visual appeal, often used for sportswear or performance apparel.
How do I style the Love Birds logo on the back?
The Love Birds logo is an embossed detail on the back, serving as a signature design element. It complements the overall sporty-chic aesthetic and doesn't require special styling.
Can I tumble dry this sweatshirt?
No, tumble drying is not recommended. It can damage the fabric, affect the fit, and potentially harm the shiny yarn embellishments. Lay flat to dry or air dry.
What size should I choose if I'm between sizes?
Consider that this sweatshirt has a specific fit. If you prefer a looser feel, you might consider sizing up. Referencing the brand's size chart for precise measurements is recommended.
Troubleshooting
Garment loses shape after washing
Ensure you are following the specific care instructions, preferably hand washing in cold water and laying flat to dry. Avoid machine drying.
Shiny yarn appears dull
This can happen with improper washing or friction. Try a gentle hand wash with a specialized detergent for delicate fabrics. Avoid ironing directly on the yarn.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to use
Gently run a graphite pencil or a bit of wax along the zipper teeth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper mechanism.
Ribbed cuffs or hem stretching out
Ensure the garment is not overstretched during washing or drying. Laying flat to dry helps maintain the integrity of ribbed sections.
