ALWAYS WASH SEPARATELY BEFORE WEARING TO AVOID BLEEDING ISSUES
Due to the nature of the dyeing process employed with Comfort Colors® pigment dyed shades, loose pigments may remain on the surface of the garments even after the first wash. We therefore strongly recommend washing these garments only with like-colored garments, as some of the pigment dyes may stain light-or white-colored garments in the wash cycle. Washing the garments in cold water will reduce the possibility of staining. Shade variations are inherent in the garment dyeing process. Our garments are pre-shrunk during the garment dye and wash processes for almost no shrinkage at home.
Pigment dye colors These colors provide a vintage look that will remain for the life of the garment.
Reactive dye colors Provide a traditional dyed appearance, with the same great softness.
