Custom sports jerseys are not only a representation of your team but also a cherished possession that you want to keep in top condition for as long as possible. To ensure your Sports Gear Swag custom jerseys stay vibrant, comfortable, and durable, proper care is essential.
In this blog post, we'll provide you with valuable tips on how to care for your custom jerseys, preserving their quality for many seasons to come.
Before proceeding with any care routine, always read and follow the care label instructions before washing jerseys. The care label provides essential information regarding the fabric type, washing guidelines, and any special instructions to maintain the jersey's quality. Paying attention to these details will prevent accidental damage during cleaning.
Spills and sweat stains on your sports jersey are inevitable during sports activities. To prevent them from setting in permanently, it's important to remove stains immediately. Pre-treat the stained area with a gentle stain remover or a mixture of mild detergent and water before washing the jersey or throwing it in the washing machine. Avoid using harsh chemicals that might harm the fabric’s quality or fade the colors.
While it may seem obvious, it's essential to remind everyone to keep custom sports jerseys away from fire or any open flame. Polyester, the primary fabric used in these jerseys, is flammable. Avoid exposing your sports jersey to direct contact with flames or high heat sources to prevent any accidents and damage.
To maintain the vividness of the custom colors, always wash your sports jerseys with similar colors. Sorting them by color prevents any potential bleeding or color transfer during the washing process.
Cold water is gentler on the fabric than hot water, so washing with cold water preserves both the material and the printed designs. To protect the vibrant logos, names, and numbers on the custom jerseys, turn them inside out before washing. This precaution minimizes direct exposure to the washing machine drum or any abrasive surfaces, ensuring the prints stay pristine.
If you’re using a washing machine, there’s no need to use a long wash cycle. If there are tough stains on your custom jerseys, you’ll need to pause the wash cycle and let the jerseys soak for a couple of minutes. This is the same when you hand-wash the jerseys—don’t scrub too hard.
After washing your custom jerseys, allow them to dry naturally—hang dry or air dry your jerseys. If you need to iron the jerseys to remove any wrinkles, use a cool iron setting to avoid damaging the custom prints.
Both products can be harmful to the fabric and the custom prints. Avoid using these as they may cause discoloration or weaken the jersey's fibers. Instead, opt for a gentle detergent specially designed for sportswear or activewear.
Extended exposure to direct sunlight can lead to fading of colors over time. Store your custom jerseys in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when they are not in use. This practice will help preserve their vibrant appearance for longer.
Caring for your custom jerseys is a simple yet crucial process that ensures they remain in excellent condition for years to come. Following the tips provided by Sports Gear Swag will help you maintain the quality, comfort, and appearance of your Sports Gear Swag's custom jerseys, allowing you to show off your team spirit with pride season after season. Remember, a little extra care goes a long way in extending the lifespan of your cherished sports gear!
