How to Care for Soft Activewear Fabrics
Soft activewear lasts longer when it is washed gently. A few simple habits can help your yoga wear keep its shape, stretch, and smooth feel.
Wash cold and gentle
Use cold water and a gentle cycle where possible. Turn garments inside out before washing to reduce friction on the outer surface.
Avoid high heat
High heat can affect stretch fabrics over time. Air drying is usually the safest choice. If you use a dryer, choose a low-heat setting and remove pieces promptly.
Skip harsh products
Avoid bleach and strong softeners. They can leave residue or weaken stretch fibers. A mild detergent is enough for regular care.
Separate rough items
Wash activewear away from zippers, hooks, towels, and rough fabrics that may cause rubbing or snags.
Store with care
Fold soft pieces or hang jackets and tops neatly. Keeping garments dry and clean between wears helps preserve the fabric feel.
