To use this sweatshirt, simply put it on and enjoy its comfort. When it's time to clean, remember to machine wash it cold and turn it inside out. Wash it with clothes of similar colors. Only use non - chlorine bleach if really needed. After washing, you can either hang it to dry for the best look or tumble dry it on a cool or low - heat setting. But don't use fabric softener because it can make the colors fade. Also, don't iron or dry clean this sweatshirt to keep it in good shape.
