This shirt is DTG (direct to garment), to explain it simply, the ink is printed directly into the fibers of the shirt just as your computer printer works on paper. To keep your shirt's design as beautiful as possible, we do recommend washing this garment inside out on the gentle cycle with cold or lukewarm water. You can either tumble dry low or line dry. PLEASE NOTE: You may notice some off-white residue or a rough texture over the graphic. Please do not worry! This comes from the special solution we use for printing the design on your shirt. These are not permanent and will wash off after the first wash cycle.
