UnderArmor--Anyone know

[debster812]

The care instructions?

A co-worker just left me a HUGE bag of clothes her 2 boys have outgrown. Much of it is too big for DS, but there are a few things that fit, and there are 3 pieces of UnderArmor. I presume that the care instructions come on the original packaging, since I cannot find hide nor hair of instructions (or a tag for that matter).

Any DIS parents who have this stuff for their sporty kids (or themselves) that know how I should wash and dry it?

Thanks

Debbie

They make it in women's too. I love the stuff. I would wash it in cool or warm, not hot. Don't put it in the dryer either, let it air dry. I don't have the actual instructions, but thats what I've been doing with it.

I washed my DS's in the regular wash, but I hung it to dry.

My son plays travel hockey and has quite a few UA shirts. I wash them in Cold water and DO NOT dry in the dryer.

Just fluff it out from the washer and place it aside. Within an hour it's dry and ready to go.

The dryer will start to breakdown the unique fabric - do the same with modal shirts and undies. Bras, too!

The care instructions say don't use fabric softener, but I have & it didn't hurt. One recommendation I would make is only wash UnderArmour with UnderArmour. It snags on anything & everything! It's great stuff, though.

Everyone else pretty much covered what I was going to say. DH gets under armor issued in the military and under no circumstances am I to ever put it in the dryer! I just throw it in the washer on cold and toss it on the drying rack. It does snag though so I put it in with my knicker wash.

You guys ROCK!

Cool water wash--CHECK
Put it in the lingerie bag--CHECK
Air Dry--CHECK

Thanks folks, this is just what I needed to know.
