Quick Answer

Wash your Cloud Modal pieces in cold water on a gentle cycle and tumble dry on low or lay flat to keep the fabric soft and breathable.

Why Cloud Modal Needs Special Care

Cloud Modal is a delicate rib knit fabric that is super soft and breathable, but it can pill or lose shape if treated like regular cotton. The fine fibers require gentle handling to stay smooth and cool against your skin.

The main trade-off: you trade a bit of convenience (no hot water or high heat) for long-lasting softness and a relaxed, elevated look that works from sleep to lounge.

Step-by-Step Cloud Modal Care Routine

  1. Turn the garment inside out: Before washing, turn your Cloud Modal piece inside out. This protects the outer rib knit surface from friction against other items. Common mistake: washing right-side out can cause the delicate knit to snag or pill faster.
  2. Wash in cold water on a gentle cycle: Use cold water (below 85°F / 30°C) and select the delicate or gentle cycle on your machine. Hot water can shrink modal fibers and make the fabric stiff. Checkpoint: skip fabric softener—it coats the fibers and reduces breathability.
  3. Dry on low heat or lay flat: Tumble dry on the lowest heat setting, or better yet, lay the garment flat on a clean towel away from direct sunlight. High heat can damage the rib knit and cause shrinkage. Common mistake: over-drying in high heat makes modal feel rough and shortens its lifespan.
