Calico Cat Club T-shirt

Our t-shirts are printed using a heat transfer method with intricate details, so proper care goes a long way in keeping your tee looking its best. Please follow these guidelines:

Washing Instructions

1. Wash Inside Out: Always turn your t-shirt inside out before washing to protect the print.
2. Cold Wash Only: Use cold water (30°C/86°F or lower) to prevent damage to the transfer.
3. Gentle Cycle: Opt for a delicate or gentle cycle to reduce agitation.
4. Mild Detergent: Use a detergent that is free from bleach or harsh chemicals.
5. Avoid Fabric Softeners: Softeners can weaken the adhesive of the heat transfer and cause peeling. Most laundry pods contain softener, so do take note!
6. Do Not Overload: Washing too many items together can increase friction and damage the print.

Drying Instructions

1. Air Dry for Best Results: Lay flat or hang to dry in the shade. Avoid direct sunlight to prevent fading.
2. No Tumble Dry/ No Dryer: High heat from dryers can cause the print to crack or peel.

Ironing Instructions

1. Turn Inside Out: Always iron the t-shirt inside out to avoid direct heat on the design.
2. Use a Low Heat Setting: Select the lowest temperature setting suitable for cotton or polyester fabrics.
3. Cover the Design: Place a thin cloth or parchment paper over the print before ironing if necessary.
4. Avoid the Transfer Area: Do not apply heat directly to the heat transfer design.

Additional Tips

• Do Not Dry Clean: The chemicals used in dry cleaning can damage the print.
• Avoid Stretching the Design: Be gentle when putting on or taking off the t-shirt to maintain the print’s integrity.
• Store flat or folded to prevent creases on the design.

By following these simple care steps, your heat transfer t-shirt will stay looking fresh and vibrant for longer!
