T-Shirt Care
No matter what you call them, tshirts, t shirts, t-shirts, tees, band tees, band shirts, rock tees, the list goes on and on, they all have one thing in common: they need special care to get the most out of them and last the longest. Band-tees.com recommends the following care instructions to preserve your t-shirt, hoodie or ball cap. Remember, heat and heavy-duty washer settings are the enemy! Some Band-tees.com t-shirts are made of pre-shrunk cotton, but some aren’t, so be sure to read the care tags on your new shirt.
- Always wash t-shirts inside out and use a gentle machine cycle in cold water.
- Machine drying: Tumble dry on low heat.
- Lay flat to dry to avoid possible shrinkage.
- T-shirts should be ironed inside out using a low heat setting and with steam. The steam can help refresh the colors in the design.
- Dry cleaning is not recommended.

- Machine drying: Tumble dry on low heat.
