How do I take care of my Garment Dyed clothes?
Wash all garments before wearing. Avoid using detergent bleaches or stain removers. For stain removal: soak the stain overnight with a mild degreasing dishwashing soap and then wash as usual. Variations in shading and/or fading are part of the natural desired effect of pigment-dyed garments. Please follow all care instructions on garment.
