SYNTHETIC LEATHER GLOVES:

  • We recommend machinewash synthetic leather gloves in cold water using a laundry detergent.
  • If you don't have a washing machine, we recommend washing your gloves in a sink using laundry detergent or dishwashing soap.
  • Do NOT use bleach or solvents, can cause discoloration.
  • Hang-dry your gloves to prevent any material shrinkage and maintain proper sizing.
  • Do NOT machine dry with heat or expose the gloves to a heat source other than indirect sunlight. 

LEATHER GLOVES:

  • We recommend washing your Leather gloves periodically to remove salt and mineral build-up from perspiration.
  • Do NOT use bleach or solvents, can cause discoloration.
  • We recommend hang-dry your leather gloves to maintain proper sizing and prevent any material shrinkage.
  • Do NOT machine dry with heat or expose the gloves to a heat source other than indirect sunlight.

WINTER GLOVES:

  • We recommend machine-washing your gloves in cold water using a laundry detergent.
  • If you don't have a washing machine, we recommend washing your gloves in a sink using laundry detergent or dishwashing soap.
  • Do NOT use bleach or solvents, can cause discoloration.
  • Hang-dry your gloves to prevent any material shrinkage and maintain proper sizing.
  • Do NOT machine dry with heat or expose the gloves to a heat source other than indirect sunlight.

HIGH VISIBLITYGARMENTS:

  • We recommend Machine-wash your hi-vis apparel with like colors in cold water only.
  • Use the “delicates” cycle on your washing machine with a mild detergent.
  • Don't wash jeans, work clothes or other rough fabrics (including those with hook-and-pile fasteners) when washing reflective or neon clothing.
  • Gently wipe stubborn areas using a clean, dry cloth and a mild stain remover.
  • Only use stain removers that are marked safe for bright colors and don't contain bleach.
  • Never scrub the color-enhanced fabrics on hi-vis clothing because you could create a splotchy or worn appearance that reduces reflectivity and could ultimately put you at greater risk of not being seen.
  • Use your dryer’s lowest heat setting – no heat is preferable – to avoid damaging the heat transfer film or the adhesive that holds the reflective stripes in place.
  • As soon as the cycle is complete, remove your garment to ensure the reflective tape doesn't permanently crease.
  • Once dry, put your hi-vis garment on a hanger until you're ready to wear it again to keep it in pristine condition.

FRGARMENTS:

  • We recommend Wash separately in a Normal or Cotton cycle at any water temperature up to a maximum of 140ºF (60ºC). Use any typical home laundry detergent. Do not use soap (tallow soap containing animal fats).
  • Turn garments inside out before wash to reduce streaking from abrasion. Fill the washer no more than 2/3 full and use high water level.
  • DO NOT use chlorine bleach or liquid nonchlorine bleach.
  • Do not use starch or fabric softeners as they may coat fibers and mask FR performance and/or serve as fuel in the event of garment ignition.
  • The use of conditioned or soft water can help improve removal of contaminants from garments. Hard water precipitates soaps and can result in the build-up of calcium and magnesium salts. These can serve as fuel in the event they are exposed to a source of ignition.
  • It is important that all soils and other contaminants are completely removed from garments during the wash process. This may require the use of stain removal products, such as Shout®, Spray 'n Wash®, or Zout®; or presoaking garments prior to washing. The use of hot water can often make detergents more effective in the removal of soils. If all contaminants cannot be removed in home care, garments should be dry cleaned.
  • Do not over dry garments. If desired, you may press with an iron on the Permanent Press/Low setting.
  • Always consult the garment manufacturer for detailed instructions and precautions.
