Washing Instructions
How to Not Ruin Your New Favorite Shirt
Cold water only — hot water is for overachievers.
Turn it inside out before washing — protect that graphic you're gonna wear until it falls apart.
Gentle detergent only — this garment-dyed cotton is chill, keep it that way. Skip the bleach and harsh stuff; they'll fade the color faster than a cheap set of strings.
First wash might bleed a little, so keep it away from your fancy whites for round one.
Hard pass on fabric softener — it messes with the texture, and this shirt's already soft enough to nap in.
Drying (a.k.a. the low-and-slow method)
Air dry if you can — best way to dodge shrinkage and keep that broken-in feel. Bonus: more time for snacks.
Dryer? Low heat only, delicate setting. High heat shrinks shirts and breaks hearts.
Grab it while it's warm — pull it out as soon as it's dry so the wrinkles don't move in.
Ironing (if you must)
Never iron straight on the graphic. Flip the shirt inside out or throw a pressing cloth over it — think of it like using a capo, a little barrier goes a long way.

Couldn’t wear it to a
Show this weekend both were formal events but for sure next weekend. I’ll post something of me playing! I posted this picture on FB. I have a huge circle of Muscian friends and their responses were hilarious!
I do about 10 - 12 3 hour shows a month so I’ll be looking at your other designs.
One very important piece of feedback. They run very small. I wear a medium on almost every shirt I order on line. My first shirt was a men’s small (labeled medium). However your crack team sent me a large free of charge and told me to gift the other one. Very impressed. I’d say the large worked but it’s definitely smaller than every other large I own.
Photos don't do it justice. This is a QUALITY shirt, and the print is perfect. Comfortable and feels worn in, even though it's brand new! Recommend Fret Folk to everybody!
