Jersey Maintenance

How to Maintain My Jersey?

Taking care of your jersey properly will keep it looking fresh and game-ready for seasons to come. Here's a helpful FAQ to guide you through the best practices.

❓1. Can I machine wash my jersey?

It's not recommended.
Many jerseys have hot-transfer printed details that can be damaged in the wash. Hand washing is the safest method to preserve the design.

If you must use a washing machine:

• Turn the jersey inside out
• Use cold water
• Select a gentle cycle
• Avoid harsh detergents

❓2. Can I scrub my jersey if it’s stained?

Scrub gently and avoid the printed or stamped areas.
Too much friction can peel or crack the print. If you need to clean a stained spot, use a soft cloth or sponge and pat gently.

❓3. Can I dry my jersey in the dryer?

No.
The heat from the dryer can warp or melt the printing. Instead:

Turn the jersey inside out

Hang it up to air dry, preferably in the shade

Avoid direct sunlight for extended periods—it can cause fading.

❓4. How should I store my jersey when I’m not wearing it?

Always hang your jersey to keep its shape and avoid wrinkles. Don’t fold it for long periods, especially if it has thick printing or numbering.

❓5. What should I do if the printing starts to peel off?

You can try to reattach the printing with heat:

Steps:

• Lay the jersey flat.
• Cover the letters or numbers with clean, non-stick plastic paper or a heat-safe stencil.
• Iron it at 150°C (302°F) for 7-8 seconds.
• If it doesn’t stick the first time, try once more.

★ Never iron the printing directly. It will melt or burn.

◆ Final Tips:

Always check the care label before washing.

Avoid bleach and fabric softeners.

Handle your jersey with care, especially after games or workouts.
