FABRIC CARE

Skynwear garments are constructed of high quality luxurious Italian fabrics. To keep your sport wear looking its best please make sure to follow these guidelines when laundering.  We want you to extend the longevity of your Skynwear by taking these precautions.

  • Machine wash on delicate cycle with cold water.
  • Lay flat to dry or tumble dry with no heat.
  • Do not not iron or bleach.

 

  • WASH WITH LIKE COLOURS

After the first wash, wash your activewear with like colours to prevent any dye transfer.

  • WASH FULL LOADS

A typical wash cycle uses 60L of water. Where possible, wait till you have a full load to wash. It saves energy and your water consumption.

  • USE A LAUNDRY WASH BAG

With each wash, countless plastic microfibres make their way from our washing machines into rivers and oceans. The Guppyfriend Washing Bag is a patented solution, that filters out the tiniest microfibres released from textiles during washing. The self-cleaning fabric bag is made of a specially designed micro-filter material. Simply collect the fibres and dispose of them properly.

  • SKIP FABRIC SOFTENER

Fabric softeners are not recommended as they can damage the elastic fibres in the fabric and can degrade the sweat wicking properties of your activewear.

  • AIR DRY 

Air or line dry in the shade, it’s better for your clothes and the environment. Avoid tumble drying, this can damage and shrink the fabric, it also uses a lot of excess energy.

We want you to extend the longevity of your Skynwear active wear by taking these precautions.
