Comprehensive Laundry & Care Instructions (Unprinted Blank Only)

Because this garment is 100% unprinted cotton, it can handle a rigorous washing routine. To keep your white heavyweight tee looking crisp, bright, and perfectly shaped over its lifespan, follow these specific guidelines:

• Strict Color Sorting: Always wash this shirt exclusively with other white garments. Even a single dark or vividly colored item in the same load can cause dye transfer, leaving your white cotton looking dingy or grey.

• Water Temperature: Wash on a normal or heavy-duty cycle using warm or hot water. Hot water is highly effective at breaking down body oils, sweat, and deodorant buildup that can cause yellowing in the armpits or collar.

• Detergent & Brighteners: Use a high-quality, heavy-duty laundry detergent. To maintain the bright white color, add an oxygen-based bleach (like OxiClean) to the drum. You can use standard chlorine bleach for severe stains, but use it sparingly—frequent chlorine bleaching will eventually weaken and degrade the cotton fibers, leading to small holes.

• Drying: Tumble dry on a medium or medium-high heat setting. Note: Because this is 100% cotton, expect a small amount of natural shrinkage (usually 3-5%) during the first few trips through a hot dryer. To completely eliminate the risk of shrinking and extend the life of the fabric, line drying in direct sunlight is highly recommended (the sun acts as a natural bleaching agent).

• Ironing: Wrinkles are natural with heavy cotton. You can safely iron this blank shirt on a high-heat “Cotton” setting. Use heavy steam for stubborn creases.
