Men's Color Block Fleece Hooded Jacket

Care & Instruction

To ensure that your Rykel hoodie stays looking great for years to come, it’s important to follow the proper care instructions. With the right care, your hoodie will remain soft, comfortable, and durable. Please refer to the guidelines below for optimal care and maintenance.

Washing Instructions

1. Machine Wash:

Wash your hoodie inside out to protect the fabric and the print.
Use cold water (max 30°C / 86°F) to prevent shrinking and preserve the fabric.
Use a gentle cycle to avoid damage to the material and design.

2. Hand Wash:
If you prefer hand washing, gently wash in cold water. Avoid wringing the fabric to prevent stretching or distorting the shape.

3. Avoid Bleach:
Do not use bleach or harsh detergents, as they can damage the fabric and cause colors to fade.

4. Use a Mild Detergent:
Choose a mild, non-abrasive detergent to protect the fabric's texture and color.

Drying Instructions

1. Air Dry:
For the best results, we recommend air-drying your hoodie by laying it flat on a clean, dry surface. This helps maintain its shape and prevents any potential shrinkage.

2. Tumble Dry (Low Heat):
If you prefer using a dryer, tumble dry on low heat only. High heat can cause the fabric to shrink or become damaged over time.

3. Avoid Direct Heat Sources:
Do not dry your hoodie near direct heat sources like radiators or heaters, as this can cause the fabric to weaken and lose its shape.

Ironing & Steaming

1. Iron on Low Heat:
If your hoodie becomes wrinkled, iron it on the lowest heat setting (no steam). Make sure to iron the hoodie inside out to avoid direct contact with the fabric or print.

2. Steaming:
Using a steam iron or garment steamer is an excellent way to remove wrinkles without direct contact with the fabric. Simply hold the steamer a few inches away from the hoodie.

Storage Tips

1. Store in a Cool, Dry Place:
Store your hoodie in a cool, dry location, away from direct sunlight to avoid fading. Avoid hanging it in areas with excessive moisture, such as bathrooms, to prevent any damage from humidity.

2. Folding:
To preserve the fabric's shape, fold your hoodie neatly. Avoid hanging it on a hanger for extended periods, as this can distort the fit, especially around the shoulders.

3. Avoid Overstuffing Drawers:
Give your hoodie room to breathe. Overcrowding storage can cause the fabric to stretch or become misshapen.

Stain Removal

1. Treat Stains Promptly:
If your hoodie gets stained, treat the stain as quickly as possible. Gently blot the stain with a clean cloth (do not rub) to lift the excess. For tough stains, use a mild stain remover that is safe for the fabric.

2. Test First:
Always test any stain removal products on a small, inconspicuous area of the hoodie to ensure they won’t cause damage.

Additional Tips

Avoid Fabric Softener:

Fabric softeners can affect the softness and moisture-wicking properties of the material. If you prefer a softer feel, consider using a natural alternative like white vinegar during the rinse cycle.

Protect Prints & Graphics:

To protect prints, logos, and graphics, avoid ironing directly on the printed areas. Turn the hoodie inside out to maintain the integrity of the design.
