How to Care for Your Athletic Apparel: Washing and Maintenance Tips
Proper care for athletic apparel ensures your workout gear stays vibrant, functional, and long-lasting. Inner Glo Apparel’s durable fabrics are designed to withstand intense workouts, but they need the right maintenance to perform at their best. This guide shares practical tips on how to wash leggings and care for your athletic wear, highlighting Inner Glo’s high-performance materials.
Why Proper Care Matters
Athletic apparel, like Inner Glo’s leggings and bodysuits, is crafted with advanced fabrics that wick moisture and stretch for comfort. Incorrect washing or storage can damage these properties, reducing performance and lifespan. Follow these steps to keep your gear in top shape.
Step-by-Step Care Guide
-
Washing:
- Use cold water (30°C or below) to preserve elasticity and color.
- Choose a gentle cycle to protect moisture-wicking leggings.
- Use mild, eco-friendly detergent; avoid fabric softeners, which can clog performance fabrics.
- Wash similar colors together to prevent bleeding.
-
Drying:
- Air dry whenever possible to maintain shape and prevent shrinkage.
- If using a dryer, select a low-heat or air-dry setting.
- Avoid direct sunlight to prevent fading.
-
Storing:
- Fold leggings and tops to avoid stretching; avoid hanging heavy items.
- Store in a cool, dry place away from moisture.
- Keep away from sharp objects to prevent snags.
