How to wash your Nerrrdy apparel

THE SMELL

You may notice an off-white residue and vinegar smell on your apparel. Don't worry! It's from a fixation agent applied during printing and it's not permanent. 

The fixation agent can sometimes leave a faint square imprint around the print, and other small white marks on the garment. Your apparel might also have a vinegar smell that gets stronger the longer it's in the poly bag packaging. 

The solution is simply to wash the garment! Neither the residue nor the smell is permanent and both should go away after one wash. 

 

HOW TO WASH

In order for you to prolong the life of your custom print, we suggest following the care instructions below:

Machine wash cold, inside-out, gentle cycle with mild detergent and similar colors. Use non-chlorine bleach, only when necessary. No fabric softeners. Tumble dry low, or hang-dry for longest life. Cool iron inside-out if necessary. Do not iron decoration. Do not dry clean.

Be wary of washing and drying on a high setting, especially when the garment is 100% cotton. High-temperature washes can fade and crack the print, and a high-temperature dryer settings can shrink the garment, as well as damage the print.
