Washing

When washing shirts, there are three important criteria you should pay attention to – color, recommended water temperature , and spin speed .

Sorting

Before washing, sort your shirts by color. White shirts are often washed with a bleaching detergent. Wash colored and black shirts with a color-preserving detergent.

Washing temperature

Check the maximum washing temperature on the label , which every shirt should have.

Rotation speed

Very important, if not the most important , is the setting of the spin speed. Too high a speed can damage individual fibers . We recommend washing shirts at a maximum spin speed of 400 .

Extra care

To give your shirts extra care, put them in the washing machine in a special laundry bag or pillowcase .

Drying

Never dry shirts in the dryer . Hang them on a hanger and let them air dry.

Ironing

You should iron them while they are still damp , but if they are completely dry, moisten them with water from a spray bottle or use a steam iron.

Storage

Store them hanging on a hanger . If you don't have enough space in your closet, fold them carefully.

Tip

You can entrust your shirts to a dry cleaner - but choose them carefully.
