Care Guide: T-Shirts
Swanndri T-Shirts are designed for everyday wear - comfortable, dependable, and made to last. Crafted from high quality cotton, they're breathable, soft, and easy to care for when treated properly.
A few simple tips will help keep your T-Shirts looking good, feeling comfortable, and holding their colour wear after wear.
Cotton T-Shirts
Our plain and printed tees are made for regular use, whether you're on the job, heading into town, or relaxing at the end of the day. Gentle care protects the cotton fibres and extends the life of the garment.
Recommended Care
-
Cold gentle machine wash
Wash with similar colours to prevent colour transfer. -
Turn inside out before washing
Helps preserve colour and protect prints. - Do not soak, bleach, or wring
-
Line dry in the shade
Reduces colour fade and protects the cotton fibres. -
Warm iron inside out only, if needed
Avoid ironing directly over printed areas. - Do not tumble dry
- Do not dry clean
Tumble drying can weaken the fibres of your garment and uses excess energy, so line drying is better for both your tee and the environment.
Keep Colours Looking Better for Longer
Direct heat and sunlight are the biggest causes of fading. Turning your T-Shirt inside out and drying it in the shade helps keep colours stronger and graphics sharper over time.
Washing in cold water also reduces energy use and is gentler on cotton fibres, helping prevent unnecessary wear.
When to Wash
Unlike wool, cotton tees sit close to the skin and generally need washing after wear - but gentle washing goes a long way. Avoid over washing where possible and always follow the care label inside your garment.
