Keep it cool – Always wash in cold water (below 30°C). Hot water will shrink the fabric and fade those bold team colors.
Turn it inside out – Flip your jersey before washing to protect names, numbers, and crests.
Gentle does it – Use a delicate cycle to preserve the high-tech polyester fibers.
Separate your colors – Wash your club and national kits apart to avoid any color mishaps.
Act fast on stains – Treat mud, grass, or sweat marks right away with cold water before they set.
No harsh stuff – Skip bleach and fabric softener, which can ruin performance features and weaken the material.
Air it out – Hang dry naturally; tumble drying can damage stretch and shape.
Low heat only – If ironing is necessary, use the coolest setting and avoid printed areas to prevent melting.
Wash promptly – Don’t let sweaty shirts sit too long; polyester holds onto odors more than cotton.
Store smart – Hang or fold carefully along seams, not across printed details, to keep them looking sharp.
