Quick answer
To keep your Figtastic Tee - Blueberry looking vibrant, wash it inside out in cold water on a gentle cycle, air dry or use low heat, and avoid harsh detergents and bleach.
Why printed tees need special care
The Figtastic Tee - Blueberry features a graphic print that can fade or crack if exposed to high heat, harsh chemicals, or rough washing. The tri-blend fabric (50% polyester, 25% cotton, 25% rayon) is lightweight and pre-shrunk, but the print requires a gentler approach to stay sharp. A little extra care during laundry goes a long way in preserving both the blueberry color and the design.
Step-by-step care routine for your Figtastic Tee
- Turn the tee inside out: Before washing, turn the Figtastic Tee inside out. This protects the printed design from rubbing against other clothes or the machine drum. Common mistake: washing right-side out can cause the print to fade or crack faster.
- Wash in cold water on a gentle cycle: Use cold water (below 85°F / 30°C) and a mild liquid detergent. Avoid bleach, fabric softeners, and detergents with optical brighteners, as they can strip color from the print and fabric. Checkpoint: hot water and harsh detergents are the top causes of fading on printed tees.
- Air dry or tumble dry on low: Lay the tee flat or hang it to air dry away from direct sunlight. If using a dryer, select the lowest heat setting and remove the tee while still slightly damp to prevent heat damage. Common mistake: high heat in the dryer can cause the print to crack and the blueberry color to dull.
- Store folded, not hung: Fold the tee and store it in a drawer or on a shelf. Hanging can stretch the neckline and shoulders over time, especially on lightweight tri-blend fabric. Checkpoint: if you must hang it, use a padded hanger to avoid shoulder bumps.
