SOFTSHELL, RIPSTOP, V2.FLOW MESH ARMOURED GEAR

 

While our armoured gear's exterior, including jackets and pants, are rugged and resilient, it's essential to handle the lining with care. As indicated on the wash tag inside the garment, the lining is delicate and should not be machine washed. Machine washing can easily cause the lining to catch on something and tear due to the garment's weight.
We highly recommend hand washing your gear as it is the safest option. Here are the steps to follow:
 
Remove Armor and Padding
Before washing, take out any armor or padding from the garment.
Check Pockets and Zippers
Check all pockets for any items, and unzip all pockets and ventilation zippers.
Dust Off
Gently dust off the garment with a soft brush or cloth to remove dust and dirt.
Spot Clean
Use a soft brush and clean water to spot clean any excessive dirt. Gently brush the areas with a bristle brush.
Soak in Mild Detergent
Soak the garment in a tub of room-temperature water with mild detergent for one hour to loosen dirt.
Brush Again
After soaking, gently brush again until all dirt is removed.
Rinse Thoroughly
Rinse the garment thoroughly with clean water, changing the water until there is no trace of detergent.
Hang to Dry
Hang the garment on a hanger in a well-ventilated area until no water drips from it.
Air Dry
Keep the garment on the hanger until it is completely dry. Avoid drying the garment in direct sunlight to prevent color fading.
Please note, following these steps can help you maintain the quality and color of your riding gear.
RAW DENIM ARMOURED GEAR

 


Caring for raw denim requires special attention to maintain its color, texture, and shape. Here are the wash care instructions we recommend:

Wear Before Washing

Frequency: Wear your raw denim for at least 6 months before the first wash, or until it becomes visibly dirty or smelly.

Purpose: This allows the denim to develop unique fades and wear patterns based on your body and lifestyle.

Spot Clean When Necessary
Method: Use a damp cloth or a soft brush with mild soap to spot-clean small stains or dirt.
Purpose: This helps maintain the denim's overall appearance and reduces the need for full washes.
Wash Infrequently
When to Wash: Only wash your raw denim when absolutely necessary, typically after several months of wear.
Purpose: Washing too frequently can fade the color and alter the denim’s texture and fit.
Machine Wash (If Necessary)
Method: Use a gentle cycle with cold water to prevent fabric shrinking and maintain the integrity of the material.
Hand Wash (Preferred)
Method: Fill a bathtub or large basin with cold water and add a small amount of mild detergent or denim-specific soap. Turn the jeans inside out, immerse them, and gently agitate the water. Let them soak for about 30 minutes to an hour.
Avoid Bleach and Harsh Detergents
Reason: Bleach and strong detergents can cause discoloration and damage the fabric.
Air Dry
Method: Lay your jeans flat on a towel or hang them by the waistband in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight. Avoid using a dryer, as high heat can cause shrinkage and damage.
Purpose: Air drying prevents shrinking, maintains the denim’s shape, and protects the fabric.
Store Properly
Method: Hang your raw denim by the waistband or fold them neatly in a cool, dry place.
Purpose: Proper storage helps maintain the denim’s shape and prevents unwanted creases.
Additional Tips
Freezing for Odor Control: Some people freeze their jeans in a plastic bag to kill bacteria and remove odors without washing. While this method is debated, it can be an option if you want to avoid washing entirely.
Minimal Movement When Wet: Avoid bending or twisting your jeans when they’re wet to prevent unwanted creases or damage.
Please note, following these steps can help you maintain the quality and character of your raw denim for a longer period.

 

PREMIUM SCOOP PULLOVER HOODIE

 



Here’s a set of wash care instructions for a French terry polyester-cotton hoodie based on best practices:


Machine Wash Cold:
Use a gentle cycle with cold water to prevent fabric shrinking and maintain the integrity of the material.

Use Mild Detergent:
Avoid harsh chemicals or bleach, as they can damage the fabric and fade colors.

Turn Inside Out:
To protect the outer surface of the hoodie, turn it inside out before washing.

Wash With Like Colors:
Prevent color bleeding by washing with similar colors.

Avoid Fabric Softeners:
Fabric softeners can break down the fibers and reduce the absorbency and durability of the fabric.

Tumble Dry Low or Hang Dry:
For best results, air dry or use a low heat setting in the dryer. High heat can cause shrinkage and damage the fabric.

Do Not Iron Print:
If your hoodie has any print or graphic design, avoid ironing directly over it. If necessary, iron on the reverse side using a low heat setting.

Avoid Dry Cleaning:
Dry cleaning chemicals can be too harsh for this fabric blend and may cause damage.

These instructions should help in maintaining the quality and longevity of your hoodie.
