Washing: the essential first step

Before washing your flocked soccer jersey, withdrawz visible dirt and prepare the fabric. The jersey should always be turned inside out to protect the flocking. Separate colors to avoid transfers, and never mix with abrasive textiles such as jeans or towels.

Machine washing is not forbidden, but it does require a few precautions:
  • Neverexceed 30°C, unless your swimsuit is not flocked.
  • Choose a sports or synthetic program with a gentle spin, ideally under 800 rpm.
  • Use a mild liquid detergent, or even better, a special formula for technical textiles.
  • Never add fabric softener, as it clogs the fibers and prevents the fabric from breathing.
  • Avoid overfilling the machine to avoid wearing down the flock by friction.

However, caring for a personalized soccer jersey by hand remains the best method.

Proper drying and ironing

Proper drying preserves both fabric and flocking. Forget the tumble dryer: the heat shrinks the fabric and removes the prints. Instead, layyour eco-responsible soccer jersey out in the open, in a well-ventilated, shady spot.

Avoid direct sunlight, which dulls colors, and radiators, which weaken fibers. Hang it on a hanger or lay it flat to keep its shape. Modern fabrics dry quickly, so there's no need to force the process.

Never iron a customized cheap soccer jerseys directly. The heat of the iron can burn the flocking or melt the polyester. To remove wrinkles, use steam from the shower.

Tips for preserving colors and flocking

Always washyour garment inside out to limit direct contact with the drum. Do not twist the printed areas and avoid rubbing with other fabrics. If you need to iron a little, place a thick cloth between the iron and the flocking, at a very low temperature. Avoid aggressive products such as bleach or powerful stain removers, which damage the pigments. If possible, opt for mild ecological detergents without bleaching agents. They clean without altering the fabric's original shade. A modern personalized soccer jersey requires special care. Hand-washing in cold water remains the best solution. Space the washes as far apart as possible to avoid wearing out the silkscreen.

Common mistakes to avoid

  • Never opt for excessive washing, which can wear down the fibers and degrade the fabric.
  • Don't leave your wet swimsuit curled up in a ball in your sports bag, as moisture encourages bacteria and odors.
  • Do not mix with abrasive fabrics such as denim or towels.
