Troubleshooting

Shirt appears wrinkled after washing

Ensure you are using the recommended washing and drying settings. A cool iron can be used if necessary. Tumble drying on low heat can help reduce wrinkles.

Shirt feels stiff or loses its drape

Check that you are not using harsh detergents or excessive bleach. Follow the recommended care instructions carefully, especially regarding bleach and iron settings.

Shirt does not dry as quickly as expected

Ensure the fabric is not overloaded with detergent residue, which can impede drying. Wring out excess water before hanging to dry. Avoid fabric softeners, which can coat fibers and slow drying.
