Care Instructions

Thank you for choosing Sports Gear Swag!

Our custom apparel is made using premium-quality fabrics, advanced printing technologies, and professional manufacturing processes designed to provide comfort, durability, performance, and long-lasting wear. Proper care helps maintain the color, fit, fabric integrity, print quality, and overall appearance of your apparel for years to come.

Washing Instructions

• Machine wash cold.
• Turn garments inside out before washing to help protect printed, embroidered, and decorated areas.
• Wash with similar colors to prevent color transfer.
• Use a mild detergent only.
• Do not use bleach, stain removers, or harsh chemicals.
• Do not use fabric softeners, as they may affect moisture-wicking and performance fabrics.
• Select a gentle or normal wash cycle whenever possible.
• Fasten zippers, buttons, and closures before washing.
• Avoid washing with heavily soiled items that may cause abrasion or excessive wear.

Drying Instructions

• Hang dry whenever possible to help maintain the shape, elasticity, and quality of the garment.
• If using a dryer, tumble dry on a low heat setting only.
• Avoid high heat, as excessive temperatures may damage fabrics, graphics, heat transfers, embroidery, and printed designs.
• Remove garments promptly from the dryer to minimize wrinkles and creasing.
• Do not place garments directly on heaters or other heat sources.

Ironing Instructions

• Do not iron directly on printed, embroidered, or decorated areas.
• If ironing is necessary, turn the garment inside out.
• Use a low heat setting only.
• Do not use steam directly on printed areas.
• Place a protective cloth between the iron and garment when needed.

Storage

• Store apparel in a cool, clean, and dry place.
• Ensure garments are completely dry before storing.
• Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when not in use, as this may cause fading over time.
• Avoid storing garments in damp environments that may lead to mildew or fabric deterioration.
• Fold or hang garments properly to help maintain their shape.

Stain Removal

• Treat stains as soon as possible.
• Use cold water and a mild detergent when spot cleaning.
• Gently blot stains rather than aggressively scrubbing the fabric.
• Test any stain treatment product on a small, inconspicuous area before full application.
• Avoid using strong solvents or chemical cleaners.

Performance & Custom Decoration Care

• Avoid leaving garments damp or wet for extended periods after use.
• Do not soak garments for long periods, especially those with custom prints, embroidery, appliqués, or heat-applied decorations.
• Avoid contact with rough surfaces that may cause pilling, snagging, or damage to fabric fibers.
• For garments featuring custom names, numbers, logos, artwork, or graphics, handle with care to help preserve decorated areas.
• Repeated exposure to chlorine, salt water, sunscreen, body oils, or perspiration may accelerate normal wear and fading.
• Avoid excessive stretching of decorated areas whenever possible.

Fabric & Performance Materials

Many Sports Gear Swag products utilize technical fabrics engineered for athletic performance. These fabrics may include moisture-wicking, breathable, lightweight, stretch, or compression properties.

To help preserve performance features:

• Follow all washing and drying recommendations.
• Avoid fabric softeners and bleach.
• Avoid prolonged exposure to excessive heat.
• Follow any additional care instructions provided on the garment label.

Color, Sizing & Manufacturing Variations

As with all custom-manufactured apparel, minor variations may occur and are considered normal.

These may include:

• Slight color variations between production batches.
• Minor differences caused by monitor, screen, or device display settings.
• Small variations in fabric texture or appearance.
• Minor print placement tolerances.
• Slight stitching variations.
• Minor measurement variances within accepted manufacturing tolerances.
• Normal fading and wear that may occur over time with repeated use and laundering.

These variations do not affect the functionality, quality, or performance of the garment.

Important Notice

Always follow any additional care instructions found on the garment label, as garment-specific recommendations may vary depending on the fabric, decoration method, or product style.

Failure to follow recommended care instructions may result in premature wear, fading, shrinkage, damage to decorations, or reduced garment lifespan.
