Care Guide
Special Notes
• Gets softer with each wash
• Extremely durable — long-lasting care
Additional Care Tips
- • Machine wash cold (30°C/85°F) on gentle cycle — hemp is strong but benefits from gentle treatment
- • Line dry in shade — direct sunlight can fade natural hemp color
- • Iron while slightly damp on medium heat with steam
- • Avoid bleach — it breaks down plant fibers; use oxygen-based whiteners if needed
- • Softens significantly with each wash — no fabric softener needed
- • Store folded; hemp resists mold and mildew naturally
