How to Not Ruin Your New Favourite Shirt:

Cold wash only — hot water is for people who like shrinking things
Turn it inside out before washing (that graphic isn't going anywhere if you look after it)
Gentle detergent only — this cotton is garment-dyed and laid back, treat it accordingly
First wash may bleed a little, so keep darker colours away from anything white or precious
Don't use bleach. Your shirt doesn't need it and won't forgive it
Skip the fabric softener — it messes with the feel and the fabric doesn't need help
Tumble dry low, or better yet hang it up and go do something fun
Air dry when you can — it's better for the shirt and better for the planet
Pull it out of the dryer as soon as it's done or you'll be de-wrinkling all day
Dry cleaning is a hard no
