Product Care
Caring for your Estitchwear pieces in the right way can help make them last even longer, allowing you to wear them season after season.
CARE LABELS
All Estitchwear clothing carries care instruction labelling showing the universal symbols. Always check the care labels before washing or drying your garments
For best results when washing, always remove from the washing machine quickly and reshape before drying. Garments marked 'wash separately' may continue to lose colour, even after several washes.
HAND WASH
Some of our garments are made from delicate fabrics and need to be washed by hand. Here are some tips:
- Turn your garment inside out before washing.
- Wash by hand only, do not use a machine even if it has a 'hand wash' cycle.
- Wash at 30°C, the water temperature should be cold to the touch.
- Use a non-bio detergent for delicate fabrics.
- If you wear rubber gloves, you may happily withstand a water temperature of 40°C ‒ but your garment may not.
