Keep the watercolor print on your Bennie And The Jets T-shirt sharp. Follow these washing steps and fit notes to enjoy it for years.
Quick answer
Wash your Bennie And The Jets Watercolor T-Shirt inside out in cold water on a gentle cycle, then hang it to dry. For fit, choose your usual size for a classic look or size up for a relaxed feel.
Why the watercolor print needs extra care
The watercolor print on this tee is detailed and colorful, so harsh washing can cause fading or cracking over time. Unlike a simple logo, watercolor designs have subtle gradients that can lose their vibrancy if exposed to heat or abrasion.
Always check the care label inside your shirt for any specific instructions. If the label is missing or unclear, use the gentle method below as a safe default.
How to find your fit
This T-shirt is available in multiple sizes, but the catalog does not list exact measurements. To get the right fit, measure a T-shirt you already own that fits well and compare it to the size chart on the product page.
If you prefer a looser, oversized look, consider sizing up. For a more fitted appearance, stick with your usual size. Remember that 100% cotton shirts may shrink slightly after the first wash, so account for that if you are between sizes.
Step-by-step print care
- Turn the shirt inside out: Before washing, turn the T-shirt inside out to protect the watercolor print from friction against other garments. Check that the print is fully on the inside; any exposed print can rub and fade.
- Use cold water and a gentle cycle: Set your washing machine to a cold water wash (max 30°C) and select a gentle or delicate cycle. Avoid hot water, which can cause the print to crack or the colors to bleed.
- Choose a mild detergent: Use a gentle, bleach-free detergent. Avoid fabric softeners and harsh chemicals that can break down the print. Do not pour detergent directly onto the print; add it to the dispenser or water first.
- Skip the dryer: After washing, remove the shirt promptly and hang it to dry in the shade, inside out. Never tumble dry; high heat is the fastest way to ruin a graphic tee.
- Iron with care: If needed, iron the shirt inside out on a low setting, avoiding the printed area. Never iron directly on the print; use a pressing cloth if necessary.
