Uniform Washing Instructions 

Follow the instructions on the care label, and follow for ALL subsequent washes!

The FIRST WASH is the most important!

If the initial washing instructions are not followed, the colors may bleed onto one another. If this happens, wash the garment AGAIN (before drying), following the instructions above.

ALWAYS remove the garment promptly from the washer once the cycle is completed.

• Leaving the garment in the washer for prolonged periods of time can cause the fabrics to bleed and/or leave unsightly wrinkles in the garment.

DO NOT machine dry the uniform.

• Once the uniform has been washed, immediately hang it up to dry.

DO NOT dry clean the uniform.

• Dry cleaning can yellow the uniform or leave an unsightly sheen. Dry cleaning also causes tackle twill lettering to fade, bubble, or stiffen.

Never use fabric softener or stain removers.

• Fabric softeners block the soil release properties (Visa treatment) and can cause dirt and stains to resist removal. If a fabric softener is used, follow the original washing instructions.

• Do not use a stain remover. Stain removers may lock the stain into the garment.

Do not store wet poms in their plastic bags.

• Let them air dry first. This will keep the unpleasant mildew smell from attacking your poms.

• If you spill a soft drink on your poms, wash them off with mild soap and water and let them air dry.
