How to Care for Your Kappa Sig Iron Cut Off Tank

Quick answer

To keep your Kappa Sig Iron Cut Off Tank looking fresh, wash it inside out in cold water and hang it to dry. Avoid bleach and high heat to protect the graphics and garment-dyed finish.

Step-by-step care instructions

1. Step 1: Turn the tank inside out: Before washing, turn the tank inside out. This protects the front and back graphics from rubbing against other clothes and the machine drum. Always wash inside out to preserve the print.
2. Step 2: Wash in cold water on a gentle cycle: Use cold water and a mild detergent. Avoid bleach or fabric softeners, as they can fade the garment-dyed color and weaken the cotton fibers. A gentle cycle reduces agitation. Cold water prevents shrinkage and fading.
3. Step 3: Hang to dry, never machine dry: After washing, reshape the tank while damp and hang it on a drying rack or clothesline. Keep it out of direct sunlight to avoid UV fading. Do not put it in the dryer, as high heat will shrink the 100% cotton and may crack the print. Air drying is the safest way to maintain fit and graphics.
4. Step 4: Store folded, not hung: Fold the tank and store it in a drawer or on a shelf. Hanging a cotton tank for long periods can stretch out the neck and shoulders. If you must hang it, use a padded hanger. Folding prevents stretching and keeps the shape.
