Machine wash cold (30°C) with similar colors. Avoid bleach, tumble dry on low heat, and iron on a low setting. Do not dry clean.
Troubleshooting
Garment feels damp after activity
Ensure the garment is properly washed according to care instructions, as residue from detergents or fabric softeners can impede moisture-wicking. Verify that the fabric is not overly saturated and that environmental conditions allow for evaporation.
Sun protection seems reduced
Inspect the fabric for any holes or significant wear that might compromise the UPF rating. Ensure the garment is fully covering the intended skin areas.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move
Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If it remains stiff, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth. Avoid excessive force.
