Image Accuracy: While we strive for 100% accuracy, actual product colors may vary slightly from your screen due to monitor calibrations and professional studio lighting. Care & Maintenance Washing: Wash immediately after each use. Machine wash inside out in COLD WATER (max 30°C) on a gentle cycle. Use a mild, non-bleach detergent. AVOID chlorine bleach, as it can cause poly/cotton to yellow. Drying: Hang or line dry in a shaded, well-ventilated area. DO NOT use a machine dryer, as the heat can cause excessive shrinkage and wear.
