UNDERWEAR WASHING INSTRUCTIONS
(How to Care for you Underwear)
Think of how great brand new underwear fits–the colors are bright, the elastic is taut and the fabric feels fresh and soft. But a few washes later, you find the colors fade, the elastic droops and the fabric feels worn and saggy. It’s a classic case of improper washing, and it’s the number one reason men complain about the fit of their underwear.
Most guys are quick to disregard the underwear washing instructions printed on the care labels, blaming busy schedules and no time for bailing on proper underwear care, but investing a few extra minutes comes with a host of benefits, including:
Keeping colors bright
Preventing elastic from stretching out and drooping
Preserving the integrity of the fabric, which prevents sagging
Prolonging the life of your underwear which ultimately saves money
We’ve created an easy to follow guide to proper underwear washing instructions that won’t cramp your style. By combining a little care label wisdom with smart short cuts, you’ll always have a drawer full of clean un**es that last longer and look better. Follow these simple underwear washing instructions to take the best care of your underwear.
The Three Deadly Sins of Underwear Care:
Hot Dryer: The average home dryer can generate heat up to 180°F, making the inside a virtual oven that bakes your underwear, taking the stretch out of elastic and resulting in saggy fabric and loose waistbands. Also, in that kind of heat, the friction of fabrics rubbing against each other becomes like sandpaper, dulling colors and silky fabrics. If the smell of burning rubber wafts up from your pile of freshly-dried laundry, you know it’s too hot. Air drying is the ideal way to help your underwear look better and last longer, but if you are in a hurry and forced to use a dryer, go for the cool to warm fluffing cycle. It can take a little longer, but think of that as more time for your underwear to look great.
