Quick answer
Turn your Buffalo Bisons Red Alt 1 Logo Tee inside out, wash in cold water on a gentle cycle, and air dry to keep the red color and graphic looking new.
Why the Red Alt 1 Tee needs special care
The bold red color and screen-printed logo are what make this tee stand out. Without proper washing, the graphic can crack and the red can fade after a few cycles. Because it's 100% cotton, it can also shrink if exposed to high heat. A few simple adjustments to your laundry routine will keep the shirt looking like new for seasons.
When to wash and how often
Cotton t-shirts don't need washing after every wear unless they're visibly soiled or sweaty. Washing less often reduces wear on the graphic and saves water. For game-day wear or casual outings, airing the tee out after use can extend time between washes.
Step-by-step care & styling guide
- Turn the tee inside out: Before washing, flip the shirt so the graphic is on the inside. This prevents the logo from rubbing against other clothes or the machine drum. Common mistake: washing right-side out causes the graphic to crack and peel faster.
- Wash in cold water on a gentle cycle: Use cold water (below 85°F / 30°C) and select the gentle or delicate cycle. Hot water can shrink cotton and fade the red dye. A mild liquid detergent works best; avoid bleach or fabric softener. Checkpoint: if your machine has a 'hand wash' setting, use it for extra protection.
- Air dry flat or hang dry: Lay the tee flat on a drying rack or hang it on a padded hanger away from direct sunlight. High heat from a dryer will shrink the cotton and may cause the graphic to peel. If you must use a dryer, choose the lowest heat setting and remove the tee while it's still slightly damp. Common mistake: drying on high heat shrinks the tee and damages the logo. Air drying keeps the fit and print intact.
- Style it for game day or casual wear: Pair the red tee with dark jeans or khaki shorts for a clean look. Layer it under an open flannel or a light jacket when the weather cools. The red color works well with neutral tones like gray, black, or navy—avoid pairing it with other bright reds to let the logo pop. Checkpoint: tuck the front slightly into your pants for a relaxed, polished silhouette.
