Merch care

Keep it loud

Treat your merch right and it’ll survive a hundred pits. Here’s how to wash, dry and store every piece.

    01. Printed apparel (DTG)

    We use direct-to-garment (DTG) printing with high-quality inks that won’t fade for a long time if taken care of properly. The manufacturer’s care label doesn’t account for the DTG process, so follow these steps instead.

    • Machine-wash cold, inside-out, on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent and like colors.
    • Use non-chlorine bleach only when necessary. No fabric softener, no dry-cleaning.
    • Tumble-dry on low if you must — hang-dry works best.
    • Iron cool and inside-out. Never iron the print.

    Washing or drying on a high setting can fade or crack the print and shrink the garment.

    02. Embroidered apparel

    • Machine-wash cold, inside-out, on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent and like colors.
    • A small amount of chlorine bleach is OK, but non-chlorine is the safer option.
    • If you notice color residue in the water, rinse in lukewarm then cold water several times — don’t rub stained embroidery.
    • Don’t leave it to soak or lie in a pile while wet, and don’t wring it out. Tumble-dry on a cool setting.
    • Iron inside-out, ideally between two pieces of cloth. No steam, and don’t wet the embroidery first. Dry-cleaning is fine.

    03. Embroidered hats, backpacks & shoes

    Spot-clean with a damp cloth where needed. Hats and shoes can be hand-washed cold if necessary — don’t use brushes.

    These can’t be machine-washed, bleached, tumble-dried, ironed or dry-cleaned. Check the manufacturer label for any other instructions.

    04. All-over print apparel, hats, fabric & swimwear

    Machine-wash cold with like colors, without bleach. Don’t dry-clean or tumble-dry. You can iron on a low heat setting.
