8 simple tips for caring for sportswear and corporate clothing

Already when choosing clothes, it is worth familiarising yourself with what fabrics are involved and where they are manufactured. Tiimiriided.ee sells high-quality European-origin goods: our clothes are tested and selected by the best in the field, last long with proper care and are skin-friendly. The latter is confirmed by a heart symbol on the care label.

Customers often enquire dye-sublimation printing regarding prints made using this method: do the colours retain their vibrancy with frequent use? We can always happily reassure them that clothes made using this method practically do not wear out with normal care and the bright colours do not fade.

Here are eight simple tips on how to ensure proper care of team clothing:

1. Follow the care label

Before washing, read the care label carefully to see what the manufacturer recommends for washing, drying and ironing. It states the maximum water temperature, which detergents may be used, whether the garments can be tumble dried, etc. The care label for Tiimiriided.ee can be viewed on each product page.

2. Rinse the sweat out of the clothes

After sweaty activity, it is worth rinsing your clothes straight away, because the salts contained in bodily fluid can ruin the fabric's properties and cause an unpleasant odour. For this, clothes do not always need to be put in the washing machine and it is enough to run them under lukewarm water. Too frequent machine washing is not good for clothes, because the mechanical processing can in turn break down the structure of the fabrics.

3. Select a gentle wash programme

If the washing machine mode allows, use the delicate wash programme, as this reduces friction, which in turn extends the lifespan of your clothes. As a rule, the programme selection includes an option for synthetic fabrics or sportswear, by using which you are consciously saving your clothes.

4. Avoid harmful detergents

Avoid detergents containing bleaching agents or whiteners, as they can damage technical fibres that help ensure the garments' breathability and moisture-wicking properties. Use neutral detergents intended for technical sportswear and casual wear.

5. Do not use fabric conditioner

Such substances can impair the properties of technical fabric clothing, such as breathability and moisture-wicking ability.

6. Use tumble drying minimally

Although Tiimiriided.ee clothing can be tumble dried at a normal temperature, we rather recommend avoiding this activity. Frequent tumble drying does not do the fabric structure any good.

7. Choose durable clothing

Choose clothing made from technical and durable materials. In the Tiimiriided.ee selection existing clothes promotional products are not mediocre, and have been approved by professional athletes and testers. Our clothing is manufactured in Europe from European-origin fabrics; they are durable and, with proper care, retain their high functionality and beautiful appearance.

If ironing, use a low temperature setting

Most sportswear does not need ironing, and the same goes for the clothes sold by Tiimiriided.ee. Although frequent ironing is not recommended, our clothes may nevertheless be ironed on a low heat. Before ironing, carefully read the care label.
