Care Instructions

To preserve the color, texture, and overall quality of your garment, please follow the care guidelines below:

Kimono Pocket T-Shirt care instructions: hand wash with care, wash separately, hang to dry, cool iron

Hand Wash Recommended
Hand washing is highly recommended to help preserve the delicate kimono fabric. Gently agitate in water without excessive rubbing, twisting, or wringing to avoid damaging the fabric.

Use Cold Water
Always use cold water when washing to prevent color bleeding and fabric shrinkage. Avoid warm or hot water, as it may cause dyes to fade or transfer.

Wash Separately
Due to the nature of the fabric, especially the kimono pocket, there is a possibility of color transfer. Wash this item separately from other garments to avoid staining.

Mild Detergent Recommended
Use a gentle, mild detergent suitable for delicate fabrics. Avoid bleach or harsh chemicals, as they may weaken fibers or alter the color.

Do Not Soak for Extended Periods
Limit soaking time to a few minutes only. Prolonged soaking may increase the risk of color transfer.

Hang to Dry
Do not tumble dry. After washing, reshape the garment and hang it to dry naturally in a shaded, well-ventilated area. Avoid direct sunlight, as it may cause fading.

Cool Iron Only
If needed, use a cool iron. Place a pressing cloth between the iron and the fabric to prevent heat damage and preserve the material’s surface.
