How to Care for Technical Fabrics
The right wash routine keeps performance kit performing for years.
Technical fabrics wick, stretch, and breathe — until harsh detergent and high heat wreck them. A little care goes a long way.
The rules
The right wash routine keeps performance kit performing for years.
Wash cold, skip fabric softener (it clogs the wicking), and air-dry when you can. Turn garments inside out and fasten zips to protect the fabric and the print.
Wash athletic wear soon after use — trapped sweat is what causes lingering odour, not a single workout.
The quick version
- Wash cold, skip fabric softener, air-dry.
- Turn garments inside out and zip them up.
- Wash soon after use to beat odour.
