Athlete Mens Cotton Shorts

Wash Less
Wash only when necessary to maintain durability. Every wash stresses cotton fibers, leading to aging and fading. Less washing also helps conserve water and energy, making it more sustainable.

Wash with Similar Colors
Separate whites from bright and dark colors to maintain their original shade. Sorting by fabric type also helps optimize washing results. Always check care labels for best practices.

Wash Cold
Cotton shrinks in heat. Wash at 30°C to 40°C for effective cleaning without damage. Lower temperatures also reduce energy use, saving up to 35% in consumption.

Wash & Dry Inside Out
Turning T-shirts inside out minimizes fading and pilling. Drying inside out also prevents discoloration while protecting the outer fabric.

Use the Right Detergent
Opt for eco-friendly detergents but avoid overuse as all detergents impact wastewater. Adjust the amount based on load size and dirt level to prevent damage.

Avoid Tumble Drying
Air-dry to prevent shrinkage. Direct sunlight can fade colors, so dry in the shade. Skipping the dryer also reduces carbon footprints as dryers consume 5x more energy than washing machines.

Iron on Reverse
Ironing inside out prevents fabric damage. Use a steam function or steamer for better results. Stretching the fabric before drying can minimize wrinkles, reducing the need for ironing.

Store Correctly
Fold T-shirts flat instead of hanging to prevent stretching. If hanging, use wide hangers and insert from the bottom to avoid neckline distortion. Keep away from direct sunlight to prevent fading.

Treat Stains Immediately
Act fast! Cotton absorbs stains quickly. Rinse with warm water and mild soap. For tough stains, use non-bleach removers to protect fabric color.
