Care & washing instructions for technical materials and sports clothing

 

Technical sports clothes are in active use and often we’re sweating while using them. It’s important to take care of these training partners well so that they’ll bring joy for a long time. After each use when sweating, we recommend a light rinse with just water for items like t-shirts, running tights, or technical clothes for skiing or hiking. If they’re not rinsed after use, leave them in an airy space or outside to dry properly from the sweat. If not rinsed or dried a smell may build up and after it really lingers, it’s hard to remove from the material even with a tougher wash.

There are special laundry detergents and fabric softeners available for technical sports clothing. These detergents and softeners contain substances that neutralize sweat. Clothes for different active sports often contain elastane in the materials and by choosing the right detergent for the wash you can avoid excessive wear of the fabric and elastic fibers while still getting a clean result.
